Finnish sauna design emphasizes performance, comfort and longevity.
OUR COMMITMENT TO QUALITY AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL ENSURES THAT YOUR SAUNA WILL BE ENJOYED FOR DECADES TO COME.
-
Our saunas are built with premium lumber, including Lunawood Thermowood Nordic Pine and locally sourced Western red cedar.
there are exactly zero toxic components in our saunas - no glues, plastics or anything that would off-gas in a hot room.
We use highly durable Corten steel roofing, engineered to withstand severe weather and harsh environmental conditions for decades.
Heat-rated under-bench LED lighting is specifically designed for the high temperatures of sauna environments. A weatherproof aged brass switch cover protects outdoor controls while complimenting the warm tones of the Lunawood Nordic pine cladding.
-
Traditional Finnish sauna design starts with one simple principle: your feet should be positioned above the sauna stones.
Our three-tier bench design ensures your body is fully enveloped in rich, even löyly - the soft, soothing steam created when water is poured over the hot stones. no cold toes in these saunas.
-
Proper ventilation is essential to an exceptional sauna experience.
A well-designed airflow system continuously draws fresh air into the sauna while allowing warm, CO2-rich air to escape.
This improves air quality and helps prevent the headaches and discomfort that can result from poor ventilation, allowing you to breathe easily and enjoy longer, more relaxing sauna sessions.
-
Our sauna floors are designed with integrated drainage to prevent water from pooling after use. By allowing moisture to drain away efficiently, the floor dries more quickly, reducing the risk of standing water that can contribute to mould and mildew.
-
Rockwool R14 insulation paired with an aluminum vapour barrier helps protect the sauna structure from moisture while improving heat retention and energy efficiency. This combination reduces the risk of rot and condensation damage, supporting long-term durability and performance of the sauna.
