Inside KeiCo’s Bespoke Indoor Sauna Installation for BRFC
Inside KeiCo’s Recent Bespoke Hybrid Sauna Installation for BRFC
At KeiCo, we’re widely known for one of the UK’s most considered ranges of modular outdoor saunas, cold plunge systems, and wellness products.
But a recent project represented something deeper.
For BRFC, KeiCo delivered a fully bespoke indoor hybrid sauna environment — a project designed around performance, recovery routines, and long-term use within a professional football club setting.
This was not a standard sauna installation.
It was a carefully specified commercial wellness environment, combining traditional sauna heat, carbon infrared technology, and intelligent cloud-based control into one integrated system.
A true investment into the longevity, wellbeing, and daily performance culture of the team.
A Hybrid Sauna Built for Performance Environments
For BRFC, the final specification centred around a full Tylö hybrid sauna system.
The installation delivered a hybrid design delivering a space with greater flexibility than a traditional sauna alone.
The Tylö Sense heater provides the depth and intensity of classic sauna heat, while the carbon panels introduce infrared functionality as part of the wider experience. Both systems are controlled through the Elite Cloud platform, giving the facility a more intelligent and manageable way to operate the environment.
For a professional club, this matters.
A commercial wellness space must be more than visually impressive. It needs to be consistent, controllable, durable, and ready for repeat use.
From Modular Outdoor Saunas to Bespoke Commercial Wellness
Many clients first discover KeiCo through our outdoor sauna collections — barrel saunas, cube saunas, cold plunges, and complete garden wellness setups.
But our B2B and bespoke arm exists for clients who need something more tailored.
Professional clubs, Hotels, Gyms, Spas, and performance facilities often require a completely different level of specification.
A commercial sauna environment needs to consider:
- daily usage frequency
- user capacity
- heat output
- room volume
- operational control
- ventilation and airflow
- access and installation constraints
- material durability
- long-term maintenance
- the experience of the people using it every day
For BRFC, the goal was to create a sauna that felt premium, professional, and purpose-built for the demands of a high-performance environment.
The Design Process: More Than a Product Installation
Every bespoke sauna begins with understanding the space.
Before installation, we reviewed the available room, intended use, heating requirements, seating layout, and the overall user experience. The early design stage explored multiple routes, including traditional heater-led systems, infrared panel integration, and hybrid specifications.
The CAD planning phase allowed the project to be considered properly before installation, including room sizing, seating layout, heater positioning, infrared panel options, and output calculations. The uploaded plan shows explored configurations including traditional heater options, infrared panel layouts, room volume calculations, and kW requirements, helping shape the final direction of the installation.
This level of planning is critical.
A commercial sauna is not just judged by how it looks on day one. It has to perform reliably, feel right in daily use, and integrate properly into the wider facility.
That is where specification matters.
Why BRFC Chose a Hybrid Sauna Environment
The decision to use a hybrid system gave the club a more advanced wellness environment than a standard sauna-only installation.
Traditional sauna heat delivers intensity, atmosphere, and the familiar sauna ritual.
Infrared panels introduce a different layer of heat experience, allowing the room to operate with greater flexibility depending on how the space is being used.
Cloud-based control adds another important layer: operational simplicity.
For professional and commercial environments, control matters because the facility must work around real routines, staff oversight, and repeated use.
The result is a space designed not only for today, but for the future of the club’s recovery and wellness culture.
A Bespoke Indoor Sauna for a Professional Football Club
The finished sauna combines warm timber, glass frontage, integrated lighting, a substantial Tylö heating system, and a carefully resolved internal layout.
The result is a commercial indoor sauna environment that feels calm, focused, and premium — while still being practical for high-frequency use.
Key project features included:
- bespoke indoor sauna design
- hybrid traditional and infrared heat system
- Tylö Sense 16kW heater
- carbon infrared panels
- Elite Cloud system control
- premium timber interior
- commercial glass frontage
- integrated bench and ambient lighting
- professional installation finish
This is exactly where KeiCo’s commercial capability becomes clear.
We do not only supply sauna products. We design and deliver environments.
Why Football Clubs Are Investing in Wellness Spaces
Across modern sport, wellness and recovery spaces are becoming increasingly important within training and club environments.
For football clubs, a dedicated sauna or wellness facility can support:
- structured recovery routines
- team wellbeing culture
- improved internal facilities
- player-focused environments
- long-term investment in performance infrastructure
- a more professional standard across the club
The BRFC installation shows what is possible when a club invests properly into its environment.
Not just a sauna in a room.
A purpose-built space designed around the people who will use it.
Built for Clubs, Hotels, Gyms, and Commercial Spaces
This project marks an important step in KeiCo’s commercial evolution.
Alongside our modular outdoor sauna range, we now support bespoke wellness projects for clients who need more advanced, site-specific solutions.
That includes:

- hospitality and retreat settings
- commercial recovery spaces
- high-end private facilities
Every space is different. The right solution depends on the room, intended use, access, infrastructure, and wider design vision.
