THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THE TURKİSH BATH
Turkish Hammam Design and Planning
How does the Turkish Hammam Design and Planning process begin?The process of Turkish Hammam design and planning is of great importance to us. We work with our design team, project manager, and construction team to meet the needs and expectations of our clients.
In the first step, we try to understand the client's needs and the purpose of the hammam, and how to create the desired atmosphere. Then, we analyze the location where the hammam will be built.
Our design team presents design proposals considering the client's needs and the analysis of the location. We revise the design based on client feedback. The project manager takes charge of project management in collaboration with the construction team.
Material selection, craftsmanship, construction scheduling, cost control, and other matters are monitored. After the construction of the hammam is completed, we begin the delivery process. We provide our clients with information about the use, maintenance, and cleaning of the hammam.
For a successful hammam project, good planning, proper material selection, appropriate cost control, and effective management are necessary, and we, as Çilek Havuz, fully embrace these principles.
Turkish Hammam Heating Systems
What are the Hammam Heating Systems?Hammam heating systems are the systems used to increase the temperature in the hammam. They can operate using different fuel sources or energy sources.
Electric Heating
In Çilek Havuz, the electric heating system is used to maintain the water temperature in the bath at a specific level, and it typically operates as follows:
Electrical Connection:
The electric heating system needs to be connected to the bath's electrical system.
Control Device:
The electric heating system should be controlled by a control device such as a button, thermostat, or smart device located at the entrance of the bath.
Water Temperature Adjustment:
Using the control device, the temperature of the bathwater should be adjusted to the desired level.
Water Temperature Control:
The electric heating system ensures continuous monitoring of the bathwater temperature, keeping it at the desired level.
By following these steps, the electric heating system in a Turkish bath operates correctly, maintaining the bathwater at the desired temperature. At Çilek Havuz, all these processes are carried out seamlessly and guaranteed by Çilek Havuz.
Hydronic Heating
Hydronic heating is a system we use to heat the air and water inside the bath.
It provides hot water circulation within the bath and creates a comfortable and enjoyable environment. The hydronic heating system consists of various components such as a water heating boiler, pipes, radiators, and a thermostatic valve.
The water heating boiler heats the water and sends it to the bath. The pipes distribute the water to the radiators inside the bath. The radiators heat the water and warm the air inside the bath. The thermostatic valve ensures the temperature of the bath is maintained at the desired level.
The hydronic heating system is important for maintaining a hygienic and comfortable environment in the bath. Additionally, a properly designed and installed hydronic heating system can increase energy efficiency and reduce costs.
In Çilek Havuz, all these processes are carried out with meticulousness and sensitivity.
Turkish Hammam Construction
What is Turkish Hammam Construction?Turkish Hammam construction involves several stages of designing and building the hammam.
At Çilek Havuz, we proceed with the following stages:
The first stage of construction is determining the location and designing the hammam. Factors such as the size, shape, material selection, and interior layout of the hammam are taken into consideration during the design stage.
Next, we excavate the foundation and prepare the flooring for the hammam. The walls of the hammam are typically constructed using stone or brick. The walls are usually assembled using mortar and then covered with a waterproof layer.
The interior of the hammam is divided into different rooms to provide varying temperature levels. The temperature difference between these rooms is a unique feature of Turkish hammams. The interior is usually tiled using marble, tiles, or other water-resistant materials.
The final stage of hammam construction involves adding equipment and accessories. This includes heating systems, water sources, ventilation systems, and hammam towels.
Turkish hammam construction requires expertise and experience. The design, construction, and equipment of the hammam play a significant role in providing a healthy and comfortable hammam experience.
Plaster and Screed
Plaster and screed are the terms used for the materials used to prepare and enhance the wall and floor surfaces in a Turkish bath, giving them durability.
Plaster:
It can be defined as the material used to complete any imperfections on the walls and floors in the Turkish bath. It fills gaps and provides the appropriate appearance and a smooth surface.
Screed:
Applied after the plaster has dried, it gives an aesthetic appearance to the wall and floor surfaces in the Turkish bath. It is commonly made from materials such as cement, sand, and water.
Creating a Seating Area
The seating area is a space within the Turkish bath that allows the body to comfortably rest and experience the soothing heat. The seating area is typically circular or rectangular in shape and is connected to the drainage system through a source located on the floor.

Turkish Hammam Ventilation
What is Turkish Hammam Ventilation?Turkish Hammam ventilation is a system designed to control the air quality and humidity levels in traditional Turkish hammams. Turkish hammams are enclosed spaces with high heat and humidity, requiring a good ventilation system to ensure air quality and enhance user comfort.
At Çilek Havuz, Turkish Hammam ventilation system typically consists of the following components:
Air Intake:
An air intake is used to bring fresh air from the outside into the hammam, aiding in balancing the humidity and temperature inside by providing natural air flow.
Air Exhaust:
Air exhausts are positioned at the top of the hammam to vent out humidity and hot air. Air is continuously refreshed inside the hammam to maintain a balance of humidity and temperature.
Air Circulation:
Fans or air ducts can be utilized in the ceiling and walls to create air movement within the hammam. This helps in distributing the air evenly, increasing user comfort, and improving air quality.
Humidity Control:
Dehumidification devices or ventilation systems may be employed to achieve a balanced humidity level within the hammam and maintain it at an optimal level.
Heat Recovery:
Some modern Turkish Hammam ventilation systems incorporate heat recovery, extracting energy from the expelled hot air to enhance energy efficiency and reduce heating costs.
