Products / Saunas / Outdoor Saunas / Barrel Saunas
HACHILL’s current Outdoor Barrel Sauna range includes BS13, BS14 and BS15. If the project has already selected the Barrel enclosure, use this page to compare the three current routes by marketed capacity, range position and the way each model fits the intended site and user group.
Exact dimensions, construction, heater details, components and installation requirements remain with the individual model pages.
Built for: sauna distributors, wellness brands, outdoor-living retailers, hospitality buyers and commercial projects.
Use marketed capacity and project context to narrow the range, then open the exact product page before relying on model-specific dimensions or technical specifications.
BS13 is the larger current Barrel route and the natural starting point when the project needs the highest marketed user-capacity position in the current BS range.
BS14 is the mid-range current Barrel route. Use the BS14 product page and current project information before relying on exact dimensions or final configuration details.
BS15 is the more compact current Barrel route and a useful starting point when the intended users and available site support the smaller end of the current BS range.
The three models should be compared as different starting points within the same Barrel family. This category-level comparison does not replace the exact product pages.
| Model | Marketed capacity | Heater-route reference | Useful starting context |
|---|---|---|---|
| BS13 | 6-8 people | 8 kW recommended route | Larger current Barrel route |
| BS14 | 4 people | Planned 6-8 kW route | Mid-range current Barrel route |
| BS15 | 3-4 people | Planned 4.5 kW route | More compact current Barrel route |
Marketed capacity and heater-route references are starting points. Confirm exact model details on the selected product page before final selection.
Once the Barrel route has been selected, the curved enclosure changes how the buyer should think about usable space, seating, entry orientation and assembly.
The curved shell changes how the interior space is perceived and used, so the external footprint should not be treated as a direct measure of usable standing or seating space.
Consider how intended users will sit, enter, move and use the benches together rather than selecting the model from headline capacity alone.
Review entry orientation, the end-wall relationship, nearby paths or structures and how the Barrel will face within the finished site.
Consider the completed Barrel footprint together with the support area, access route, delivery method and working space required for assembly.
Apply outdoor site planning specifically to the Barrel enclosure: support area, drainage, assembly access and the relationship between the heater system and the selected BS model.
Identify the available support area, finished level, base or platform concept, surrounding surfaces and fixed site constraints.
Review surface runoff, drainage around the base, ground splash, direct rain, sun and wind exposure, and site protection already available.
Check delivery vehicle access, gates, narrow passages, turns, slopes or steps, handling restrictions and working space for assembly.
Include the intended heater direction, electrical context, ventilation and future service access, then confirm exact model requirements after selection.
A useful Barrel Sauna enquiry starts with the intended model or user range, then adds the available site and commercial information. Exact product details can be confirmed after the correct BS model is selected.
Include BS13, BS14 or BS15 if selected, intended users, application, destination market, quantity and project timing.
Provide installation footprint, site photos or a simple layout, preferred entry orientation, base or platform context, drainage and outdoor exposure.
Include unloading and delivery access, assembly space, intended heater direction, electrical context, ventilation and future service access.
Include OEM or private-label requirements, branding, finish or customization, packaging, quantity, drawings and other required project documents.
Use these planning resources when additional background is useful before moving into exact product details.
Use the heater guide when the project needs additional context around heater selection and the factors that affect the final heater route.
Use the sauna-building guide for broader planning around site preparation, enclosure coordination, utilities, ventilation, access and installation.
If the preferred model is already known, send BS13, BS14 or BS15 together with the available site, delivery and commercial requirements.
If the exact model is still being compared, provide the intended users, available footprint, site conditions and project requirements so the discussion can continue from the correct part of the current Barrel range.
