The build

What we handle

  • 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 staves are thermo-spruce, with benches and backrests in knotless thermo-aspen. The glass front runs the full face of the barrel, so the room stays bright and open to its surroundings while the wood keeps the heat where it belongs.

Six people sit along the curve facing the view. The wider Elegance barrel gives deeper benches than the standard Ergo line, with room to lean back or lie down between rounds.

The EE8GB option adds the black exterior buildout, setting the glass in a darker shell.

We deliver, assemble on site, coordinate the site work, and select the heater with you during the consultation, with electrical coordination handled by us. We confirm availability and every detail before anything ships.

  • “Worthy of 10 stars! Went above and beyond to ensure we had full understanding in everything: the sauna we purchased, the ordering, delivery, and setup. Absolutely love our sauna and worth every penny. David was incredibly knowledgeable and went out of his way to over-deliver. Highly recommend working with David!”
