Damaged Sauna Insulation: A Warning from Belarus

Sauna Ceiling Insulation Failure Highlights Risks of Poor Workmanship A recent video posted online has highlighted the dangers of poorly installed sauna insulation. The video, filmed in Belarus by sauna repairman Aleksandr Shkor, shows significant damage to insulation material directly adjacent to a metal partition in a sauna ceiling. The heat from the partition appears to have caused discoloration and damage to the insulation. "It's a disaster," Shkor says in the video, pointing to the blackened insulation. "This is what happens when the insulation is not installed properly." The video serves as a cautionary tale for sauna owners and contractors. Improper insulation can lead to fire hazards and reduced energy efficiency. Experts recommend using appropriate insulation materials and following manufacturer's guidelines for proper installation to prevent such damage.
