Types of Custom Saunas We Build
Traditional Finnish
The classic sauna experience — high heat, steam from water poured over hot stones, and deep relaxation. Built with premium cedar or hemlock with electric or wood-burning heaters.
Infrared
Gentle, radiant heat that warms the body directly at lower temperatures. Ideal for chronic pain relief, recovery, and homeowners who prefer a milder session.
Steam / Hybrid
Combines sauna and steam room functionality in one space. Perfect for homeowners who want the versatility of both dry heat and full steam.
Outdoor Barrel / Cabin
Freestanding outdoor sauna structures — barrel saunas, cabin-style builds, or integrated deck saunas. A stunning backyard addition for year-round use.

|---|---|---|
| Temperature | 160–200°F | 120–150°F |

For the authentic experience with steam, go traditional Finnish. For joint pain or heat sensitivity, infrared is more comfortable. We build both — call for a free consultation.
What Is a Custom-Built Sauna?

- ✓Choice of wood species: western red cedar, hemlock, thermally modified timber
- ✓Heater selection: Finnish electric, wood-burning, or infrared panels
- ✓Custom bench configurations, backrests, and lighting
- ✓Proper vapor barrier, insulation, and ventilation engineered for your climate
- ✓Can be installed indoors (bathroom, basement, garage) or outdoors (deck, yard, pool area)
