In this video, I focus on building one wall of a custom modular DIY sauna kit designed for a specific space in my basement. This sauna is built to be assembled and disassembled, making it easy to move in the future.
This episode covers the full wall assembly, including:
Wall framing and structure
Insulation choice for a Modular sauna
Foil vapor barrier installation
Interior wood siding for the sauna finish
This is one part of a larger sauna build series, and I’m breaking the project down wall by wall to show the details that matter. If you’re planning a DIY sauna kit, basement sauna, or a modular sauna build, I hope this video helps with your design and material choices.
Thanks for watching!

Poplar (Populus)
Poplar, part of the willow family, is naturally pale yellow in color, with a smooth texture. Common in the Northern Hemisphere, it belongs to the same genus as aspen (Populus tremula), and it’s similarly ideal for sauna benches and interiors – the wood has no exposed knots and it doesn’t splinter, secrete resin, or overheat.
