Heater Options
1. All-round Heat from Carbon Heaters
Our infrared saunas feature carbon heaters that distribute heat uniformly and efficiently. These heaters are designed for close-distance heat distribution, contributing to a comfortable sauna experience. They ensure even heating, creating a cosy environment inside the sauna.
What does this mean?
- Uniform Heat Distribution: Carbon heaters in our saunas are designed to emit infrared heat uniformly across the entire sauna space. This means that when you step into the sauna, you won't experience hot spots or cold areas. Instead, the heat is evenly distributed, ensuring that you receive consistent warmth from floor to ceiling and wall to wall. This uniformity of heat creates a comfortable and balanced environment inside the sauna.
- Efficient Heat Production: Carbon heaters are known for their energy efficiency. They generate heat quickly and maintain a steady temperature with minimal energy consumption. This not only reduces operating costs but also ensures that the sauna reaches the desired temperature promptly, allowing you to enjoy your session without delay.
- Close-Distance Heat: Carbon heaters are positioned strategically in the sauna to provide what we call "close-distance heat distribution." This means that the heaters are placed in proximity to the sauna occupants. As a result, you feel the warmth directly on your skin, creating a comforting and soothing sensation. Unlike some traditional saunas that rely on hot air to heat the space, carbon heaters deliver warmth where it matters most—on your body.
- Even Heating from All Sides: In our saunas, carbon heaters are often placed on the walls and the floor, ensuring that you are surrounded by warmth from every angle. This 360-degree heating approach envelops you in a cocoon of soothing heat, allowing for a deeper and more enjoyable sauna experience.
- Consistent Temperature: Carbon heaters maintain a consistent temperature throughout your sauna session. This helps you achieve the desired therapeutic benefits, whether it's relaxation, detoxification, or pain relief. The absence of temperature fluctuations ensures that you can fully immerse yourself in the experience and reap the rewards of the sauna.
2. All-round Heat from Ceramic Heaters
Ceramic infrared heaters are a fundamental component of our saunas, offering specific advantages for your sauna experience. These hollow rods, measuring 650mm in length and 15mm in diameter, house a heating element wound around a glass tube. When activated, the ceramic tube heats up and emits far infrared rays, creating a soothing and invigorating heat source.
While ceramic heaters provide an excellent sauna experience, our premium option comes in the form of carbon heaters. Our carbon heaters, featured in select models, come in large flat panels that offer an even more extensive surface area, enhancing your sauna experience to a higher level of luxury and comfort.
What does this mean?
- Uniform Heat Distribution: Ceramic heaters in our saunas are designed to emit infrared heat uniformly across the entire sauna space. This means that when you step into the sauna, you won't experience hot spots or cold areas. Instead, the heat is evenly distributed, ensuring that you receive consistent warmth from floor to ceiling and wall to wall. This uniformity of heat creates a comfortable and balanced environment inside the sauna.
- Efficient Heat Production: Ceramic heaters are known for their energy efficiency. They generate heat quickly and maintain a steady temperature with minimal energy consumption. This not only reduces operating costs but also ensures that the sauna reaches the desired temperature promptly, allowing you to enjoy your session without delay.
- Close-Distance Heat: Ceramic heaters are positioned strategically in the sauna to provide what we call "close-distance heat distribution." This means that the heaters are placed in proximity to the sauna occupants. As a result, you feel the warmth directly on your skin, creating a comforting and soothing sensation. Unlike some traditional saunas that rely on hot air to heat the space, carbon heaters deliver warmth where it matters most—on your body.
- Even Heating from All Sides: In our saunas, carbon heaters are often placed on the walls and the floor, ensuring that you are surrounded by warmth from every angle. This 360-degree heating approach envelops you in a cocoon of soothing heat, allowing for a deeper and more enjoyable sauna experience.
- Consistent Temperature: Ceramic heaters maintain a consistent temperature throughout your sauna session. This helps you achieve the desired therapeutic benefits, whether it's relaxation, detoxification, or pain relief. The absence of temperature fluctuations ensures that you can fully immerse yourself in the experience and reap the rewards of the sauna.
In summary, carbon heaters in our saunas are meticulously designed to provide all-round, uniform, and efficient heat distribution. They create a comfortable and cosy environment by ensuring that heat is evenly distributed, reaching you from all sides and maintaining a consistent temperature. This thoughtful heating system enhances the overall sauna experience, making it both relaxing and effective for various health and well-being benefits.
What is Near-Infrared Heat Therapy?
- Near-Infrared Spectrum: The carbon heaters used in our saunas are specifically designed to emit near-infrared wavelengths. Near-infrared light falls within the spectrum of infrared radiation that is closest to visible light. This proximity to visible light makes near-infrared particularly effective at heating the body's surface.
- Targeted Comfort: Near-infrared heaters excel at providing warmth directly to the skin and superficial tissues. When you enter the sauna, you'll feel the soothing heat on your skin almost immediately. This close-distance heat distribution creates a sensation of instant comfort and relaxation.
- Quick Warm-Up: Near-infrared heaters have a rapid warm-up time, ensuring that the sauna reaches the desired temperature swiftly. This means you can begin your sauna session without the need for a lengthy preheating period, allowing you to make the most of your time.
- Energy Efficiency: Near-infrared carbon heaters are energy-efficient, consuming less power while maintaining a comfortable sauna temperature. This not only lowers operational costs but also aligns with sustainability goals, making your sauna sessions eco-friendly.
- Flexible and Customisable: The close-distance heat from near-infrared heaters allows for greater flexibility and customisation of your sauna experience. You have precise control over the intensity of the heat, ensuring that it suits your comfort level and therapeutic goals.
- Enhanced Skin Benefits: Near-infrared heat is known for its potential skin benefits. It can promote collagen production and improve skin elasticity, contributing to a healthier and more youthful appearance.
In summary, the carbon heaters in our saunas are near-infrared heaters, which offer several advantages such as quick warm-up, energy efficiency, and the ability to provide targeted, close-distance heat. These heaters are tailored to create an all-round, comfortable sauna experience, where you can enjoy the benefits of near-infrared heat therapy while relaxing in a well-balanced and evenly heated environment.
Advanced Far Infrared Technology
In this specific sauna model, we've incorporated advanced far infrared heaters, specifically halogen heaters. These heaters emit far infrared rays that gently penetrate your body, facilitating deep detoxification and relaxation. When combined with our near infrared heaters as discussed above, this combination creates what is known as a full spectrum of infrared heat therapy, offering a comprehensive wellness experience.
What Is a Full Spectrum of Infrared Heat Therapy?
A full spectrum of infrared heat therapy refers to the utilisation of different types of infrared wavelengths to penetrate the body. Infrared rays fall into three main categories: near-infrared, mid-infrared, and far-infrared. Each of these wavelengths has distinct properties and interacts with the body differently.
How Does It Work?
- Near-Infrared: These wavelengths are short and are typically used in devices like carbon heaters. Near-infrared is effective at heating the surface of the skin and causing profuse sweating. However, it penetrates the body only to a shallow depth.
- Mid-Infrared: This wavelength has a moderate penetration depth and is responsible for heating the body's tissues at a deeper level. It's often associated with improved circulation and pain relief.
- Far-Infrared: Far-infrared rays have the longest wavelength and can penetrate the body the deepest. They gently warm the body's core, inducing a profound sense of relaxation. This depth of penetration is where deep detoxification occurs, as it can stimulate the release of toxins stored in fat cells.
Why Is a Full Spectrum Better Than Near-Infrared Heaters Alone?
The combination of carbon heaters (which emit near-infrared) and halogen heaters (which emit far-infrared) in a sauna creates a full spectrum of infrared heat therapy. Here's why this is advantageous:
- Comprehensive Healing: Near-infrared heats the body's surface, preparing it for the deeper penetration of far-infrared. This combination provides a more comprehensive healing experience, addressing both superficial and deep-seated issues.
- Deep Detoxification: Far-infrared rays have the unique ability to penetrate deep into the body, stimulating the release of toxins stored in fat cells. This deep detoxification can be highly beneficial for overall health and well-being.
- Enhanced Relaxation: The gentle warmth of far-infrared rays induces a profound state of relaxation, promoting mental and physical well-being. Combining this with near-infrared's skin-heating properties results in a soothing and therapeutic experience.
- Versatility: The full spectrum approach allows users to tailor their sauna sessions to their specific needs. Whether it's pain relief, detoxification, or relaxation, you have a wide range of benefits to draw from during each session.
In summary, a full spectrum of infrared heat therapy, achieved by combining near-infrared and far-infrared technologies, offers a more holistic and effective approach to sauna therapy. It addresses a broader range of health concerns and provides a deeper level of relaxation and detoxification than near carbon heaters alone. This combination maximises the benefits of sauna use for your overall well-being.
Oxygen Ioniser for Clean Air
Maintaining clean air quality inside the sauna is paramount. Our oxygen ioniser works to purify the air, ensuring a fresh and comfortable environment. This is crucial for the overall well-being of sauna users, as clean air contributes to a more enjoyable and healthier experience.
Health Benefits of Oxygen Ionisation in Home Saunas:
- Improved Respiratory Health: The oxygen ionizer helps remove impurities and allergens from the air inside the sauna. This is particularly beneficial for individuals with respiratory issues such as asthma or allergies, as it can reduce the risk of inhaling irritants that may trigger symptoms.
- Enhanced Oxygenation: Clean air enriched with negative ions can improve the body's ability to absorb oxygen. This can lead to better oxygenation of the body's cells, which is essential for overall health and vitality.
- Stress Reduction: Negative ions generated by the oxygen ionizer have been linked to reduced stress and increased feelings of relaxation. Breathing in negatively ionised air can promote the release of serotonin in the brain, which is associated with mood improvement and stress reduction.
- Enhanced Mood: Clean air with increased negative ions can positively affect one's mood. It may help combat symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) and contribute to an overall sense of well-being.
- Improved Immune Function: Some studies suggest that exposure to negative ions can boost the immune system's ability to defend against pathogens. By creating a healthier environment, the oxygen ionizer may indirectly support immune function.
- Allergen Reduction: The ionisation process can help reduce the presence of common allergens like dust mites, pollen, and pet dander in the air. This is particularly advantageous for individuals with allergies.
- Better Sleep: Improved air quality and reduced stress levels can lead to better sleep quality. Many users report more restful and rejuvenating sleep after sauna sessions in an environment with clean, negatively ionised air.
In summary, the oxygen ionizer in our saunas provides several health benefits that contribute to a more enjoyable and beneficial sauna experience. It enhances respiratory health, reduces stress, and promotes an overall sense of well-being by creating a clean and refreshing environment. This, in turn, can lead to improved mood, better sleep, and enhanced immune function, making your sauna sessions not only relaxing but also health-enhancing.
Chromatherapy Lighting for Relaxation
Our saunas are equipped with chromatherapy lighting, which employs coloured light to enhance relaxation and emotional balance. This feature adds an extra layer of tranquillity to your sauna sessions, promoting a sense of calm and well-being.
Mental Health Benefits of Chromatherapy Lighting:
- Stress Reduction: Different colours have been associated with varying emotional responses. For example, soft blues and greens are often linked to calmness and reduced stress levels. When chromatherapy lighting is integrated into a sauna, it can help create a soothing atmosphere, aiding in stress reduction and relaxation. This can be particularly valuable after a long and tiring day.
- Enhanced Mood: Colours can have a profound impact on our mood and emotions. Warm colours like red and orange are known for their stimulating and energising effects, while cooler colours like blue and violet can be calming and serene. The ability to select specific colours in the sauna allows users to tailor their experience to their mood, potentially lifting their spirits or promoting a sense of tranquillity.
- Emotional Balance: Chromatherapy is often used as a form of colour therapy. It is believed that exposure to certain colours can help balance emotions and promote emotional well-being. For example, green is often associated with harmony and balance, while purple is linked to spiritual growth. By incorporating these colours into sauna sessions, users may experience a heightened sense of emotional equilibrium.
- Relaxation and Mindfulness: Sauna sessions are already conducive to relaxation, but the addition of chromatherapy lighting can enhance this experience. The changing colours can act as a form of visual meditation, promoting mindfulness and mental clarity. This can be especially beneficial for individuals looking to de-stress and find inner peace.
- Positive Distraction: The play of colours can serve as a positive distraction, diverting the mind from daily concerns and worries. This can help users unwind and shift their focus to a more peaceful and enjoyable state of mind.
- Aromatherapy Synergy: Many users combine chromatherapy with aromatherapy in the sauna. Certain colours can be paired with specific scents to create a harmonious sensory experience that further enhances relaxation and mental well-being.
In conclusion, chromatherapy lighting in saunas offers a range of mental health benefits by influencing mood, reducing stress, promoting emotional balance, and enhancing relaxation. It adds an extra dimension to the sauna experience, making it not only physically rejuvenating but also emotionally uplifting. This holistic approach to well-being can contribute to a sense of calm and tranquillity, ultimately benefiting your mental health and overall quality of life.

High-quality Canadian Hemlock Wood
Like everything else, we take wood selection seriously, and that's why we exclusively use premium Canadian Hemlock wood for our saunas.
- Exceptional Durability: Canadian Hemlock is renowned for its exceptional durability. It's a wood that resists warping, cracking, and damage over the years, ensuring that your sauna maintains its structural integrity and appearance.
- Longevity: The choice of high-quality wood isn't just about aesthetics; it's about longevity. By selecting Canadian Hemlock, we are ensuring that your sauna investment pays off for years to come. This wood's natural resistance to wear and tear means that your sauna remains as beautiful and functional as the day it was installed.
- Aesthetics: Beyond its durability, Canadian Hemlock contributes to the overall aesthetics of our saunas. Its rich, warm appearance adds an inviting ambience to your sauna, creating a visually beautiful addition to your home or garden.
Toughened Glass Windows
Safety is paramount in our sauna design, and that's why we insist on using toughened glass windows. These windows not only enhance the sauna's aesthetic appeal but also serve a vital safety function.
- Enhanced Safety: Toughened glass is significantly stronger than regular glass, reducing the risk of breakage. In the unlikely event of a break, toughened glass shatters into small, relatively harmless fragments rather than sharp shards, minimising any potential harm.
- Durable Enclosure: Our toughened glass windows provide a secure and durable enclosure for your sauna. They are designed to withstand the temperature variations and humidity levels found in saunas, ensuring they remain reliable and safe for the long term.
- Unobstructed View: While safety is our priority, we also understand the value of enjoying the outside view from your sauna. Our toughened glass windows offer a clear and unobstructed view, allowing you to connect with nature and relish the beauty of your surroundings while in the comfort of your sauna.
- Premium Glass Quality: Just as we select the finest wood, we also insist on using only the best glass for both our indoor and outdoor saunas. This commitment to quality ensures that your sauna's windows maintain their integrity and transparency, contributing to a safer and more enjoyable sauna experience.
Easily Cleaned and Low Maintenance
Our saunas are designed with your comfort in mind, whether you have an indoor or outdoor sauna. Cleaning and upkeep should never overshadow your relaxation time.
- Simple Cleaning: Our saunas can be easily cleaned, both inside and outside, with minimal effort. You can simply wipe down the interior surfaces to remove any moisture or residue, ensuring that your sauna remains inviting and hygienic. For our outdoor saunas, this easy cleaning process extends to the exterior, allowing you to maintain the sauna's pristine appearance effortlessly.
- Low Maintenance: We've made sure that our saunas, whether indoor or outdoor, require minimal upkeep. You won't have to worry about time-consuming maintenance tasks, be it for the interior or exterior. Instead, you can focus on what truly matters – enjoying the soothing benefits of your sauna, without the added burden of extensive maintenance.

Foundations
A crucial part of achieving longevity and getting the most out of your new sauna is establishing a solid foundation. In this section, we'll delve into the essential considerations for the base and access to the sides of your sauna, guiding you through the process of creating the perfect foundation for your indoor oasis.
Access for Assembly
For a seamless assembly of your outdoor sauna, access to all four sides is essential. We recommend providing approximately 50mm (2 inches) of clearance around the sauna to allow for assembly. However, more space is always appreciated.
In cases where the sauna is placed tightly into a corner or specific location, this sauna can be built slightly out of its final position and then manoeuvred it into place as needed.
Base
The sauna's foundation is the bedrock upon which your indoor relaxation retreat will stand. To maintain the sauna's structural integrity and prevent warping over time, it's imperative that we assemble it on a level and sturdy surface. We do not recommend assembling the sauna on an uneven floor or uneven ground, or generally unsuitable surfaces. Instead, we advocate for the ideal base, which includes options such as wooden floor, tiled floor, carpet, laminate, concrete and tarmac.
This specific model of sauna is equipped with numerous micro feet. These feet serve a vital purpose by ensuring an even distribution of weight and stability.
To ensure proper weight distribution and stability, it is crucial that the majority of these feet are in contact with the ground. We emphasise "majority" because the exact number may vary based on your unique sauna installation. There is no one-size-fits-all value, as every installation has its unique characteristics.
However, it's crucial to avoid any substantial depressions or gullies on the base surface. A depression of more than 3/4 of an inch (20mm) at any point across the base can lead to undesirable consequences, such as the sauna's floor being pushed down or bowed up in the middle. This not only poses structural issues but also hinders your enjoyment of the sauna.
Note:
We do NOT advocate assembling your sauna on a surface which is not suitable. If you opt for our installation services, our experienced fitters will not install the sauna on an uneven base, as it can cause complications and compromise the sauna's performance. This may result in the inconvenience of delaying your sauna installation until a suitable base is located /prepared.
How to Verify Your Sauna Base
Checking the solidity and levelness of your sauna base is crucial to ensure a flawless installation. You can follow these simple steps to confirm its suitability:
- Use a level, a straight piece of material, alongside a spirit level to check for any rocking or depressions exceeding 3/4 of an inch (20mm).
- For added peace of mind, consider consulting a local builder or landscaper to confirm that the surface is level, ensuring a solid foundation for your outdoor sauna.

Suitable for all sauna woods, this medical-grade treatment is free of toxins, fragrance, and colour. Protect your wooden surfaces from steam damage and unsightly sweat marks, ensuring your sauna remains pristine for years to come.
What is White Oil and Why is it Used in Sauna Treatment?
White oil, in the context of wood treatment, is a specific type of oil that is used to protect and enhance the appearance of wooden surfaces, particularly in saunas and other interior wood applications. Key characteristics and uses of white oil include:
- Colourless and Odourless: Suitable for environments like saunas where a natural and clean appearance is desired without introducing strong scents.
- Protective Barrier: Forms a protective barrier on wood surfaces, repelling moisture, sweat, and steam to prevent damage like warping, discoloration, or bacterial growth.
- Enhances Natural Wood Beauty: Brings out the wood's grain and colour, making it look richer and more vibrant.
- Non-Toxic and Safe: Safe for skin contact, making it suitable for saunas where people often sit or lean against the wood.
- Versatile Application: Suitable for various sauna woods, specifically Canadian Hemlock, and can be used on both new and existing wood surfaces.
Should I Oil My New Sauna's Wood Surfaces?
Oiled wood surfaces in saunas may initially appear dry, but this is natural. Variations in oil absorption across different parts of the wood can occur. To maintain appearance and enhance protection, consider oiling your sauna's wood when you first receive it. For ongoing wood protection and longevity, periodically use this product on your oiled sauna surfaces.
How to Apply White Oil to Your Sauna:
- Step 1: Preparation
- Shake the white oil container before use to ensure proper mixing.
- Lightly sand the wood surface along the grain using a soft sanding sponge with a grit of 220.
- Remove sanding dust with a clean cloth.
- If necessary, clean the surface with a cloth well wrung out in lukewarm water with a few drops of uncolored, pH-neutral washing-up liquid.
- Wipe the surface with a clean, dry cloth.
- Allow the wood to dry for approximately two hours before using your sauna.
- Step 2: Application
- Apply the white oil directly onto the wood surface in an even, thin layer.
- Gently rub the oil into the wood using an uncoloured cloth or sponge.
- After 2-3 minutes, wipe off any excess oil with a clean, dry cloth.
- Perform this step while the surface is still wet with oil.
- The oil will take up to two days to harden completely and provide maximum protection.
- Step 3: Aftercare
- We recommend drying any rags or cloths used for applying oil outside.
- Once completely dry, they can be disposed of normally.
- Apply periodically, once every 4-6 months.
By following these steps, you can effectively apply white oil to your sauna's wood surfaces, enhancing their appearance and protecting them from sauna-specific conditions.

Sauna Health Benefits & Choosing Your Sauna
Sauna Health Benefits
Saunas have been revered for their potential health benefits for centuries, and today, modern science continues to uncover the therapeutic advantages they offer. In this section, we delve into the sauna's transformative effects on both body and mind. From improved circulation and detoxification to relaxation and pain relief, saunas have a lot to offer in the realm of wellness.
Whether you're considering a traditional wood-burning sauna or an infrared variant, understanding the health benefits can help you harness the full potential of this age-old practice for your well-being.
Improved Circulation
Sauna sessions stimulate the cardiovascular system by causing the heart rate to rise. This effect is similar to moderate exercise and can be particularly beneficial for individuals who may have limited mobility. The increased heart rate encourages blood vessels to dilate, allowing for better blood flow. As a result, your muscles and tissues receive more oxygen and nutrients, promoting overall cardiovascular health. Improved circulation can also help reduce the risk of hypertension and related heart issues.
Detox
Sweating is one of the body's natural ways to eliminate toxins. When you're in a sauna, your body's core temperature rises, prompting you to sweat profusely. This sweating process helps expel harmful substances such as heavy metals, chemicals, and pollutants from your body. Detoxification through sweating is considered an effective way to support the body's natural detox processes, although it's essential to re-hydrate afterwards to replace lost fluids.
Relaxation and Stress Reduction
Saunas are renowned for their relaxation benefits. The dry, enveloping heat in traditional saunas and the gentle warmth in infrared saunas create a tranquil atmosphere. This environment allows your muscles to relax, reducing tension and promoting a sense of calm. Furthermore, the heat triggers the release of endorphins, which are natural mood enhancers. Regular sauna use can help manage stress, anxiety, and even symptoms of depression.
Pain Relief
Heat therapy is a well-established method for relieving pain. Sauna heat can soothe sore muscles and joints, making it an effective treatment for various conditions, including arthritis, fibromyalgia, and muscle strains. The heat promotes muscle relaxation, increases blood flow to the affected areas, and may reduce inflammation, resulting in pain relief.
Improved Skin Health
Sauna-induced sweating opens up pores and cleanses the skin. As you sweat, impurities, dead skin cells, and excess oil are expelled, potentially reducing the risk of acne and promoting clearer skin. Additionally, the improved circulation from sauna use brings essential nutrients and oxygen to the skin's surface, contributing to a healthier complexion.
Weight Management
Sauna use can complement weight management efforts. While it's not a substitute for exercise and a balanced diet, the increased heart rate and sweating in a sauna can lead to calorie burning. However, it's important to note that the calorie expenditure is relatively modest compared to traditional exercise. Saunas are most effective when used as part of a holistic weight management plan.
Enhanced Respiratory Function
The warm, humid air in saunas can be especially beneficial for individuals with respiratory conditions. It helps open airways, making breathing easier. For people with asthma or bronchitis, sauna sessions may provide relief from symptoms by reducing airway constriction and promoting better lung function.
Better Sleep
Sauna-induced relaxation and stress reduction can have a positive impact on sleep quality. After a sauna session, many individuals report falling asleep faster and experiencing deeper, more restful sleep. The relaxation effect of saunas can help calm the mind, making it easier to unwind before bedtime.
Mental Well-Being
Beyond the physical benefits, saunas offer significant mental health advantages. The serene environment inside a sauna, free from distractions, allows for meditation and reflection. This mental solitude can lead to greater self-awareness, clarity of thought, and emotional balance. Endorphin release during sauna sessions contributes to a sense of well-being and improved mood.
Immune System Support
Sauna use may have a positive impact on the immune system. The increased body temperature triggers the production of white blood cells, which play a crucial role in defending against infections. Regular sauna sessions can strengthen the immune system, potentially reducing the risk of illness. However, sauna use alone should not be relied upon as a primary method of immune system support but can be a valuable addition to a healthy lifestyle.
Closing Remarks
It's important to emphasise that the benefits of sauna use can vary from person to person, and individual experiences may differ. Additionally, moderation is key, as excessive sauna use can lead to dehydration or other health issues. If you have underlying medical conditions or are pregnant, consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating saunas into your routine. Overall, when used responsibly, saunas offer a wealth of physical and mental health benefits, contributing to a healthier and more vibrant life.

Quality Wood Selection
The choice of wood in sauna construction plays a pivotal role in determining its overall quality and durability. We prioritise the use of premium Canadian Hemlock wood, setting a standard that sets us apart in the industry. We recognise that not all saunas are created equal, and the quality of the wood used is of paramount importance. In this section, we will explore what makes Canadian Hemlock wood exceptional and how it compares to other commonly used wood options in sauna construction.
Canadian Hemlock
Canadian Hemlock is characterised by its slow growth, conical growth pattern, and soft, fine needles. The needles exhibit a dark green hue on their upper sides and a lighter green shade on their undersides. As the tree matures, its bark typically takes on a rust or cinnamon red colour. With a remarkable lifespan, Canadian Hemlock trees can reach heights of up to 80 feet. These trees thrive in moist but well-drained soil conditions, and due to their shallow root system, they require protection from strong winds.

- Finnish Craftsmanship: Crafted in Finland, these heaters embody Finnish excellence in design, engineering, and manufacturing.
Harvia Vega Sauna Stones
Sauna stones are the unsung heroes of the Finnish sauna tradition, and they play a pivotal role in elevating your Harvia sauna experience. Placed in a basket above the sauna's Harvia Vega stove, these rocks serve two primary functions that contribute to the unique and comforting atmosphere of your sauna:
- Absorb and Retain Heat: Sauna stones are inherently thermally conductive, just like those used in our Harvia Vega heaters. This means they excel at absorbing and retaining heat. When placed inside the Harvia sauna, these stones absorb the heat generated by the Harvia Vega stove. As they slowly release this stored heat into the air, they help maintain a comfortably warm temperature in your sauna.
- Produce Steam: To achieve their second function of producing steam, sauna stones, like those found in our Harvia Vega heaters, require contact with water. This is easily accomplished by ladling water onto the rocks periodically, and many Harvia sauna enthusiasts keep a bucket and ladle within their sauna for this purpose. When water is poured over the sauna stones in your Harvia Vega heater, it generates steam. It's important to note that this doesn't saturate the entire room with steam. Instead, it creates localised humidity, enhancing your sauna experience.
Harvia Vega Steam Sauna
The purpose of generating steam in our saunas with Harvia Vega heaters is not to envelop the entire room in steam but rather to amplify the sauna experience. The presence of steam encourages sweating and intensifies your body's perception of heat, making your Harvia sauna session more invigorating and effective.
Just as sauna stones are integral to the Finnish sauna tradition, they are equally essential to your Harvia sauna experience. Their unique ability to absorb and retain heat, coupled with their role in producing localised steam, creates the distinct and comforting atmosphere that Harvia sauna enthusiasts worldwide have come to love. So, the next time you step into your sauna and see those rocks atop the Harvia Vega stove, you'll have a deeper appreciation for the role they play in enhancing your sauna experience.
In our traditional saunas, the steam effect is optional and can be easily achieved by pouring water, using the provided bucket and ladle, onto the sauna rocks. It's essential to keep in mind that the amount of steam produced is directly proportional to the amount of water you pour over the sauna rocks. This allows you to tailor your sauna experience to your preferences, ensuring that you enjoy the level of steam and humidity that suits you best.
