(01) — Saunas

home saunas,sized right/

A sauna is a 20-year purchase. The right one depends on where it goes, how many people use it, and what your electrical can carry. We'll help you get all three right.

Buying guide

Most return headaches start with the wrong size. These are the questions we ask before we recommend anything.

How to choose a sauna

  1. (01)

    Traditional or infrared

    Traditional saunas heat the air to roughly 150–195°F, and you can pour water on the stones for steam. Infrared saunas run cooler and heat you directly. They warm up faster, and many plug into a standard outlet.

  2. (02)

    Barrel or cabin

    Barrels heat efficiently and look great in a yard. Cabins fit more people, can add a porch or changing room, and suit a backyard “room.”

  3. (03)

    Power

    Most traditional electric heaters need a dedicated 240V circuit. Some homes need a panel upgrade, so we check before you order, not after.

  4. (04)

    Indoor or outdoor

    Outdoor units need a level base — pavers, a gravel pad or concrete — and the right roofing for your weather.

Our sauna collection is launching soon.

Questions we hear

How long does delivery take?

It depends on the maker and the model. Typical lead times run a few weeks, and we confirm the real date before you pay.

Do I need an electrician?

For most traditional saunas, yes. We'll tell you exactly what to ask them for.

Can it go in a garage or basement?

Often, yes. Ventilation and the floor matter, and we'll walk through both with you.
