Bathhouse on wheels: advantages and disadvantages

What does a mobile bath inside look like?

The bathhouse is a special building where it is washed and soared, healed and relieves fatigue. In Russian villages, it is often the only "wash" place. Usually this is a stationary building made of wood, brick, located near the reservoir, but in modern times, many organize an outdoor bathhouse on wheels - it can be moved anywhere, taken with you to rest, hitched to a car. This is especially convenient for those who do not have a summer residence, avid travelers, businessmen who earn money for organizing bath procedures.

Features, device, components of the autobahn

A “marching” autobank is made of a car trailer, an “army” car, almost any, even a relatively old machine, preferably a large one. Even in a relatively small Gazelle, a comfortable road bath is being equipped, and a whole company will be able to soar in the spacious Gaz bus, in the Kamaz. It is best to use a car that has good cross-country ability - this one is capable of driving on any off-road.

The room is divided into two parts - in one of them there will be a steam room, a stove-heater, a boiler with water. Shelves are mounted here, the walls are lined with wood, the stove is usually installed separately from the main space. The second part is the dressing room. It will accommodate a dressing room, a shower, a table with chairs or benches, a refrigerator with drinks, food. The windows are made small - one in each room, they are mounted blinds, ordinary curtains.

If a bathhouse is planned for three to five people, then an ordinary truck is quite enough, a more spacious one is made from a whole bus. In the latter case, the bath is additionally equipped with:

  • separate shower;
  • bar;
  • dry closet;
  • washbasin;
  • a place for rest with a sofa, a TV, a table;
  • a room for storing inventory, supplies;
  • massage room;
  • Hookah, etc.

In the "commercial" bathhouse, they organize the services of a massage therapist, a bathhouse attendant, a place for grilling kebabs, a corner for table and sports games and more.

Of the finishing materials for outdoor use cedar, larch, aspen. For interior decoration, birch, linden and many other hardwoods are suitable. Mineral wool is suitable as a heater, the flooring is made of wood. The room is heated with electricity, gas or ordinary wood.For a small room, a compact metal stove with a power of 4.5 kW is suitable, in a more spacious one - at least 13 kW. The chimney is equipped with a valve, the organization of ventilation in the lower part of the furnace is also necessary.
The tank for heating water is selected depending on the estimated number of bath users present in it at the same time. Its capacity is from 50 to 110 liters. Water is heated in one of two ways: by installing the tank on the pipe or in the form of a tank register. In the first embodiment, water boils, increasing the humidity in the room. The second is more expensive, complex, but the tank is mounted anywhere, including outside the steam room. The cold water tank is made very voluminous - from 100 to 500 liters.

Stones in the heater

To prevent the stove from cooling down for a long time, put more stones in the heater.

Bath in the truck

A finished bath-trailer is bought from manufacturers of such structures. It is equipped with everything minimally necessary, has the necessary documentation.

Kinds

A Russian bathhouse or a Finnish sauna on wheeled vehicles are made of all kinds of cars, vans, boat trailers.A towing vehicle is additionally purchased for the towed structure. The shape of the bath is an ordinary, rectangular, barrel bath - in the form of a cylinder, a design with one beveled edge, in the shape of a hut.

The weight of the finished steam room, depending on the size, ranges from 250 kg to several tons - this should be taken into account when choosing a towing vehicle.

Steam rooms from converted buses, trucks

A spacious bathhouse is placed on the bus, which should be redone beforehand - insulated, foiled, with wooden panels, and there is already a staircase in it. The room is divided into a dressing room, steam room, as well as other utility rooms - the amount of space allows.
A ready-made purchased barrel is installed in the back of the truck or a trailer is built - the structure must be carefully fixed using special fastening slings. For lifting, a folding ladder is made, usually wooden.

When creating any structure made of wood, all the details that one way or another concerns a person should be carefully sanded to avoid splintering.

Steam rooms on wheels with wheels

A full wooden trailer or barrel is built on the platform frame or in the trailer. The boat trailer has a special trailer - if according to the documents it is possible to carry other goods on it, such as a barrel bath, then a special permit from the traffic police is not required. To build such a steam room, a barrel is made independently of any desired size or on order. It is mounted on embedded beams, then walls are made - at least three (of which two are external), the building is sheathed with boards, pulled together with hoops, insulated. The frame of the beam must be impregnated with protective compounds.

Two or more openings are always made in the floor to drain water - at least one for each room.

Stages of independent construction of a steam room

The autobahn is ordered ready-made from specialists, but it is much cheaper to build it on your own or with the help of assistants. To begin with, a project is always drawn up, with all sizes, a detailed floor plan, furniture arrangement.Next, materials, necessary equipment are selected and purchased, manufacturing begins with the implementation of stiffeners so that the structure does not warp, maintains integrity during long-distance transport.

The height of the structure for convenience is at least one and a half meters.

Construction of the bath

Design, planning

In order for a truck, bus, trailer for a passenger car or other type of transport to become a real bathhouse, you will have to make some efforts using various knowledge and skills. Designing begins with a rough sketch of the general view of the building - for this, the appearance, size of the transport, and what maximum weight it is capable of transporting, are evaluated. After they create a complete, as detailed as possible drawing indicating all sizes. The weight of the building depends on the materials chosen, the internal arrangement. The required power of the sauna stove depends on the area of ​​the room.

It is important to take into account the centers of gravity - the stove, the ceiling, otherwise the bathhouse can tip over when rocking, and people who are in it can get injured. As a counterweight, they mount an attack, a grate from the floor.

The device of ribs

The next stage of work is the creation of stiffening ribs of the future bathhouse. This is required so that the structure can be installed anywhere - in nature it rests on specially made supports. Four additional strong points are usually satisfied - they will not allow the structure to swing. One of the sides of the autobahn is made folding - it will turn out a ladder for climbing up and down to the bathhouse and back. The ribs are made of a metal profile, the structure is assembled, fixed. It must be remembered that the room is divided into two separate zones - the steam room itself and the dressing room.

Installation of a furnace furnace, chimney

When the "tent" of the mobile bath is mounted, it is necessary to deal with the external design, installation of the stove, and interior decorating. Installing the stove yourself is quite difficult. The firebox is located outside the trailer.The bathhouse is heated to an average of sixty degrees so that it is comfortable to use. Stoves are sewn into special beads - otherwise they may fly out. Holes are made in stones where stainless wire is placed. To facilitate the construction during transportation, they are transferred to other places. It is important to make the pipe correctly - it is brought out straight upward or sideways from the middle of the wall. The stove itself is placed in the corner.

In Russia, leaving the bath, people jumped into a snowdrift or the nearest body of water. The modern "gentle" option provides for the arrangement of a special font with the setting of an acceptable water temperature.

Exterior finish

Next, produce an external finish. To make the bathhouse beautiful, looking like a real, rustic one, wood siding is used. The design is decorated with kerosene lamps or their imitation, wooden steps, shutters with house carving, overhead elements made using a jigsaw. Metal profile parts are usually masked. All wooden parts must be impregnated with special compounds that prevent rotting, mold damage, fungus.

Processing the exterior of the bathhouse on wheels

In accordance with safety rules, doors are displayed on the front side. You can make a visor above the entrance - in case of bad weather.

Interior decoration

The interior design of the mobile bathhouse practically does not differ from the usual one - in the stationary one. It is without fail well insulated, upholstered, decorated. Fragile glass decor is not used, as it can break - the structure will often undergo shaking during transport. Everything that is available in the room is well fixed - any object falling during the ride can cause injury. Benches, tables, sofas should not ride - special attention is paid to this.

The walls are sheathed first with foil, then with a lining. Of wood, linden, aspen, oak, and other hardwoods are most suitable.Cedar is also suitable - it smells nice, but can cause allergic reactions, especially in children. In the bath should be convenient to carry out procedures such as salt, herbal peeling - it should be easy to wash after that.

In order to dry as quickly as possible a freshly washed design, open doors, windows without turning off the stove.

Interior design

The final stage is the creation of a comfortable, attractive interior. The ceilings are made wide, as an option - folding. Necessarily need at least one bench, barrels of cold and hot water. For the convenience of vacationers, it is advisable to organize a shower and toilet. The rest of the furniture, TV, fridge, bar are done if there is room for them. Benches, shelves are mounted along the walls.

The interior of the bathhouse on wheels

Decor does not need much - it will litter the space, especially if it is not enough. Carved elements, artificial plants will do. The lighting is adjustable - in the daytime there will be enough street light from the windows, in the evening, at night it will be necessary to turn on the electric light. It is important to take care of sufficient moisture insulation of all electrical appliances, switches, sockets, wires, lamps.

Decorative LED lighting on the ceiling and walls will create a romantic atmosphere.
