Safety records for sauna venues

Staff record checks for every sauna, ice bath and plunge pool on their phone. Each reading is checked against HSE guidance, so anything unsafe is flagged before a customer gets in.

How checks work

Every reading is checked against HSE, PWTAG and Home Office guidance. If one is out of range, staff must note what they did before they can save it. The owner sees it the same day.

One dashboard for the whole venue. See what's done, what's overdue and what went wrong.

Built for a busy shift. On the phone your staff already carry.

Staff sign each check with a PIN

Sauna Safe is free for pilot venues in 2026. We'll tell you the price at least 30 days before we charge. Email us a question

Sauna Safe activity log: every record added, with who did it and when

Which venues is the pilot for?

Sauna, cold plunge and ice-bath venues with staff, in England and Wales. Scotland and Northern Ireland come later.

Does it make my venue compliant?

No app can. Sauna Safe keeps your records and names the guidance behind each check. You stay responsible for safety.

Where are our records kept?

On servers in Stockholm, in the EU. Each venue's records are kept separate, and nobody can edit a saved record.

Do venue staff need an email address?

No. They can sign checks with a 4 to 6 digit PIN on a shared venue tablet.

Can I try the app before the pilot?

Yes. The demo venue is your own example sauna with a week of records. It's wiped after a day.

Does it need an app store?

No. It runs in the phone's browser and can be added to the home screen.
