Around the world, particularly in Scandinavian countries, saunas have been used for thousands of years for their social and therapeutic benefits. Each Backcountry Scandinavian barrel sauna kit can be paired with either a wood-fired or electric heater of your choice.
Easy use & setup
Our easy-to-follow instructions for self-assembly make setting up your barrel sauna a breeze. No special tools or carpentry skills are required, and our instructions are written with the DIY customer in mind. All lumber pieces are pre-cut, and assembly typically takes less than 3-4 hours. Upgrade your backyard or recreational property with a therapeutic Scandinavian barrel sauna. Our Wooden Barrel Saunas are available in various sizes, in Canadian Red Cedar or Nordic White Pine, and with or without a porch.
Our Sauna Design
The Scandinavian barrel sauna is held in place by sturdy stainless steel bands and minimal fasteners (see photos). This system allows the lumber staves to expand and contract to form a tight seal, and the unit sits on polymer support cradles that loft the sauna’s undercarriage, off the ground (see photo). The Scandinavian barrel sauna design is noted for its efficiency, even distribution of heat, and visual appeal. The front sauna porch creates a visually appealing and useful outside sitting area — a place to hold towels or drinks or to serve as a relaxing place to cool off between sauna rounds.
Materials
Our cedar saunas are made from 100% Canadian Western Red Cedar. The door hinges, heater, fasteners and bands are made of stainless steel. The sauna comes with a tempered and tinted full glass door with self-closing hinges.
Performance
These saunas will heat quickly--to as much as 195 F (90 Celsius) in under an hour. Every Backcountry barrel sauna comes with either a wood-fired or electric stainless steel heater, water bucket & ladle, sauna rocks, and combination thermometer/hygrometer so that you may begin enjoying the authentic sauna experience as soon as the assembly is complete.
Atmosphere
Soft interior lighting, opposite-facing benches that allow bathers to enjoy good conversation, and a sturdy heater fence made from aromatic cedar or pine scents, all promote the authentically relaxing Scandinavian sauna experience.
Easy Canada Wide Shipping
We ship our saunas all across Canada and the United States to sauna enthusiasts who enjoy the wellness benefits of heat and steam!
