Sauna: Frame in pressure-treated wood

[Perkylainen]

Hello,
a friend of mine is going to build a small sauna cabin on his property. He insists on building the frame of this sauna with pressure-treated wood. I claim that it is completely wrong and foolish to build a house frame with pressure-treated wood. Additionally, it is completely environmentally incorrect, and I don't feel too keen on using the sauna afterwards... ;-)

Before he gets too far, I would like to offer more advice on the matter. What does the gathered expert panel on this forum say?

PS. Has the thread ended up in the right place? Maybe it should be in the sauna section...

Best regards

No printed built-in.

No printed built-in.

I say that too. Is it built-in if it's outside the plastic?

That's what I say too. Is it built-in if it's outside the plastic?

Isn't there something on the outside of the frame then?

There is probably something on the outside of the frame then?

Of course. I agree with you. I understand how idiotic the question is. Write something nice, and then I'll refer him to this thread. ;-)

TI is used to protect against rot. The framework of a house does not need protection against rot. Therefore, untreated wood is used, which is cheaper and does not contain copper salts.

If the treated wood is old and has been exposed to the West Coast climate for 10-15 years. Washed about 5 times. I don't know because we inherited the veranda,
Then there can't be that many toxic fumes left, right?
