Questions and answers
How much does a log aitta cost?
Aitta 13 costs €17,400 with standard equipment and Aitta 16 €19,500. Ordered from the online store, Edukas Aitta 12 costs €12,000.
The price includes a complete building with standard equipment. Transport and installation are priced according to the delivery location, and foundations are not included in the price.
Can two bedrooms fit in an aitta?
Aitta 13 (12.9 m²) fits a double bed and a table set, or it can be divided into two bedrooms, making it a twin aitta for two guest couples. Aitta 16 (16.1 m²) is divided into a bedroom and a living area.
Does an aitta need a building permit?
No, as long as the aitta is not intended for permanent living. All Ehta's aittas are 12–16 m², i.e. below the 30 m² limit. If the aitta has a fixed stove, it is considered intended for residential use, and then a permit is required.
The municipality's local plan and building regulations may set additional conditions or restrictions, especially when building by the shore, so check them with the municipal building control.
Can you sleep in an aitta in winter?
Yes, when you choose the winter package, which is also available for aittas: 134 mm laminated log and additional insulation for the floor and ceiling. The basic package is suitable for use across three seasons. An electric radiator is suitable for heating, and Aitta 16 can have a fireplace. Read whether you need a building suitable for year-round use.
What is the delivery time for the building?
As a rule, all our buildings are delivered in about eight weeks from the order confirmation, depending on the length of the order queue. Remember to allow for any building permit process in your schedule. Some of our models (stock models) are also available with a shorter delivery time.
How much does it cost to transport the building?
The cost of transport depends on the size of the building and the distance. For turnkey deliveries, the transport price always includes installation.
Example prices:
- Sauna Cabin 20, turnkey delivery to Tampere: €900
- Cabin 30 turnkey delivery to Lahti: €3,400
- Garden Sauna 13, kit delivery to Pudasjärvi: €870
What kind of foundations are needed?
We recommend pier foundations or ground screw foundations for all our buildings. The foundations should be built carefully on a frost-free base, so that they are stable and the building does not shift. We will provide a foundation dimension drawing, making the foundations easy to build.
Can the floor plans be modified?
A garden sauna adapts to your needs, and the floor plans can be modified in many ways. Our design starts by listening to the customer's thoughts, wishes and needs. Based on them, we design the best floor plan: the positions of doors, windows and partition walls, and any additions and removals.
Can the building have a window of a different size? What about an outside door to the sauna room? In other words, can changes be made to the standard models?
We have invested a great deal of time and expertise into the design of our saunas. Our models have been refined over the years to be excellent and functional. However, we understand that needs vary and individual modifications are sometimes necessary. Please get in touch and we can discuss what we can do.
Can the building be electrified?
Yes. When the electrical work is done at the factory, the cables are hidden and no surface wiring is needed. Once the building is in place, the consumer unit is connected to the grid. You can arrange this, for example, with a local electrical installation company.
How should the exterior and interior log surfaces be treated?
The minimum treatment for exterior surfaces is a colourless protective treatment that protects against moisture and mould spots. In damp seasons we recommend treating the surfaces soon after delivery. The protective treatment can also be chosen as an optional extra, in which case it is applied at the factory. Otherwise, the same guidance applies as for treating log surfaces in general.
What warranty do the buildings have?
We give a comprehensive 12-year warranty on the log frame. The floor, roof, sauna benches and electrical installations have a 2-year warranty. Other parts are covered by each manufacturer's own warranty.
The Aitta combines tradition with modern needs
Pause and savour the word “aitta”. What comes to mind for you?
Perhaps old Finnish films. Maybe you can picture a hayfield with an old aitta in the middle of it.
Our modern aittas are much more than that. They combine the charm of the traditional Finnish aitta with the needs of today's lifestyle, and blend seamlessly into rural landscapes and more modern surroundings alike.
Our range includes aittas from a compact 12-square-metre powerhouse to a 30-square-metre party space – and everything in between. Whatever your need for extra space, an aitta always works!
