LED Lighting (Optional Extra)
Enhance your sauna experience with optional LED lighting, both inside and outside our sauna. For outdoor lighting, we feature LED strips that are strategically placed under the roof ridge and along the sides of the front door. These external LEDs not only add an elegant touch but also provide visibility around the sauna area.
Inside the sauna room, our LED strips create a soothing and inviting atmosphere. You'll find these strips discreetly placed under the sauna benches on both sides, providing ample illumination. Additionally, LED lighting is fitted under the backrests on both sides, further enhancing the ambiance and ensuring you have a well-lit and relaxing environment for your sauna sessions. The LED lighting option is a practical addition that allows you to customize your sauna's atmosphere according to your preferences.
Our Traditional Sauna Heaters
When it comes to traditional saunas, the choice of heater is paramount. That's why we trust Harvia, the global leader in wood-burning sauna stoves and electric sauna heaters, to provide the heart of our saunas.
With over seven decades of expertise, Harvia has set the gold standard for sauna heating solutions. We proudly feature Harvia heaters in our traditional saunas, ensuring that you experience sauna bliss at its finest.
The Harvia Trendi Series stands out with its ingenious design. The controls are strategically positioned at the top, offering effortless and ergonomic operation. Our Harvia heaters guarantee even heat distribution across every inch of your sauna, including those lower benches where you love to relax.
Features of the Harvia Trendi Series
- User-Friendly Integrated Control: Each Harvia Trendi model comes with an integrated control unit, simplifying the sauna heating process. With this user-friendly feature, you can effortlessly adjust settings to create your perfect sauna environment.
- Optimal Heat Distribution: Say goodbye to uneven heating. The wall-mounted design ensures that every corner of your sauna is enveloped in warmth.
- Durability and Aesthetics: The stainless steel shell not only guarantees durability but also adds a touch of modern sophistication to your sauna space.
- Natural Sauna Stones: Enhance your sauna experience with the addition of sauna stones. These stones boost heat and steam distribution, taking your relaxation to the next level.
- Finnish Craftsmanship: Crafted in Finland, these heaters embody Finnish excellence in design, engineering, and manufacturing.
Harvia Trendi Sauna Stones
Sauna stones are the unsung heroes of the Finnish sauna tradition, and they play a pivotal role in elevating your Harvia sauna experience. Placed in a basket above the sauna's Harvia Trendi stove, these rocks serve two primary functions that contribute to the unique and comforting atmosphere of your sauna:
- Absorb and Retain Heat: Sauna stones are inherently thermally conductive, just like those used in our Harvia Trendi heaters. This means they excel at absorbing and retaining heat. When placed inside the Harvia sauna, these stones absorb the heat generated by the Harvia Trendi stove. As they slowly release this stored heat into the air, they help maintain a comfortably warm temperature in your sauna.
- Produce Steam: To achieve their second function of producing steam, sauna stones, like those found in our Harvia Trendi heaters, require contact with water. This is easily accomplished by ladling water onto the rocks periodically, and many Harvia sauna enthusiasts keep a bucket and ladle within their sauna for this purpose. When water is poured over the sauna stones in your Harvia Trendi heater, it generates steam. It's important to note that this doesn't saturate the entire room with steam. Instead, it creates localised humidity, enhancing your sauna experience.
Harvia Trendi Steam Sauna
The purpose of generating steam in our saunas with Harvia Trendi heaters is not to envelop the entire room in steam but rather to amplify the sauna experience. The presence of steam encourages sweating and intensifies your body's perception of heat, making your Harvia sauna session more invigorating and effective.
Just as sauna stones are integral to the Finnish sauna tradition, they are equally essential to your Harvia sauna experience. Their unique ability to absorb and retain heat, coupled with their role in producing localised steam, creates the distinct and comforting atmosphere that Harvia sauna enthusiasts worldwide have come to love. So, the next time you step into your sauna and see those rocks atop the Harvia Trendi stove, you'll have a deeper appreciation for the role they play in enhancing your sauna experience.
In our traditional saunas, the steam effect is optional and can be easily achieved by pouring water, using the provided bucket and ladle, onto the sauna rocks. It's essential to keep in mind that the amount of steam produced is directly proportional to the amount of water you pour over the sauna rocks. This allows you to tailor your sauna experience to your preferences, ensuring that you enjoy the level of steam and humidity that suits you best.

Sauna Essential FAQ's
What is the lead time on your saunas?
For single sauna projects, from order confirmation to arrival on site, typically ranges from 4 to 6 weeks.
For multi-pod projects, which often require more customisation and coordination, the timeline extends to approximately 6 to 10 weeks.
What foundation is required for the saunas?
Recommended Base Types
We recommend setting your sauna on concrete, tarmac. A level and secure base prevent issues like water ingress, pest intrusion, and aesthetic wear over time.
Why is a Solid Base Important?
A solid foundation is essential to ensure the longevity and stability of your sauna. Setting the sauna on an uneven or unstable base can cause structural issues, including door and window misalignments, gaps, and a decrease in insulation and water resistance.
Is electricity required?
Electrical needs vary depending on the sauna’s size. For simple setups, a 20 Amp supply may suffice, while larger saunas with more equipment may require up to 32 Amps. Consult with our team for specific guidance tailored to your sauna’s setup.
Is plumbing required?
Plumbing generally isn’t necessary for our saunas. However, plumbing can be an added requirement if your sauna pod requires a built-shower or WC area.
