About this Sauna
A quiet session after work, a slower weekend morning or time spent catching up with friends: the Premium Barrel Sauna gives those moments a space of their own. Its curved timber exterior makes a distinctive addition to the garden, while the wider interior accommodates up to six people.
Inside, higher two-tier Aspen benches give the seating area its character. Footrests and a pair of Aspen backrests add comfort, with Alder flooring and a tempered black glass door completing the interior. The result is a space that feels considered from the moment you step inside.
The six packages let you decide how you want to use your sauna. Choose a wood-fired setup if you enjoy the preparation as much as the session itself. For connected electric heating, select a Harvia or HUUM Smart package with a digital control panel and Wi-Fi capability.
