The build

What we handle

We source quality products that we stand behind, for you, not for the brand, and we build the room around them.

  • Site preparation

    Pad, foundation, drainage, access, and placement.

  • Delivery and placement

    Freight coordination to your site, and the room set where it will stand.

  • Assembly

    Skilled assembly on site, crate to first burn.

  • Electrical coordination

    Electrical is coordinated through licensed electricians.

  • Protection

    Climate-appropriate treatment for the seasons the room will live through.

  • Support after the build

    Service and guidance after the build, from someone who picks up the phone in year three.

About this buildout.

The barrel is built from thermally modified Nordic spruce staves, and the front wall is glass from side to side. The wider Elegance barrel gives deeper benches than the standard Ergo line, so the curve holds you rather than perching you.

You sit facing the glass with the whole yard, treeline, or water in front of you while the spruce holds the heat at your back. It is a room built around the view.

The EE6GB option adds the black exterior buildout, framing the glass in a darker shell.

We deliver the kit, assemble it on site, coordinate the site work, and match the heater to the room during your consultation, including electrical coordination. We confirm availability and every detail with you before anything ships.
