Bathhouse distance to house and boundary
Czechia
The exact zone depends on the type and height of the structure, the exceptions in Section 11 and the applicable local planning documentation. Verify the specific project before construction.
Distances and rules
A bathhouse, sauna or outdoor shower is set back from a dwelling — because of water runoff, humidity and the fact that a stove is a fire source — and a setback from the plot boundary is kept as well. The exact distances depend on the country and the building materials.
