Right now, it leans towards this solution:
https://www.bastupunkten.se/40-glasvagg-till-bastu-och-badrum
This option comes in at just under 10' with everything that pertains to the glass wall, and it still feels reasonable. The company also seems knowledgeable and helpful, which is worth a lot.
But there is one thing in their instructions that I can't make sense of:
You don't need an air gap behind the panel; it can be mounted directly onto the sauna foil. But note, if you have a cold wall behind, like in a basement, then you should have an air gap between the sauna wall and the cold wall.
They suggest that if you have a grooved panel, you still get some circulation, but I think I would want to put a narrow batten in front as well. This likely also provides better and more evenly distributed mounting points for the panel.
