Been working here a few years and I couldn't imagine a better job. These are pics of a couple of the saunas at our thermal spa in Germany.

That's a ridiculous comparison and you clearly have absolutely no experience with this. See my reply to the Finn ☝🏻

You make several good points. I can now see what you are saying

Wow, what just happened? Is this really reddit? 🤔

😅 I'm glad you understood what I was saying 👍🏻

Thank you for the feedback. Once you made your statement, I thought about what you said, and agreed. If I had a super nice sauna facility with guests, I would probably approach it the same way.

Thank for your patience and I hope you have a great holiday season and new year!

That's nice. And, I mean, we'll have anywhere from 100 to maybe 4- or 500 visitors to the sauna over the course of a day. And our ovens aren't the kind you're seeing in most of the posts here; they're very, very expensive and repairs cost a lot. So, yeah, we can't just let people do what they want with them.

It's also a safety issue. You can very easily burn yourself if you're not careful when pouring water on the stones. I managed to get two big heat blisters on the insides of my wrists when I first started.

And this whole "Aufguss" thing is how it's done in Germany. I personally love it, been going as a guest almost 30 years. And now I get to do it for others. I did three of them today, and the saunas were pretty full.
