Fit, power and setup
Plan a level outdoor pad for the 79.2 by 84.7 inch footprint and about 7 feet 4 inches of clearance for the 88.3 inch height. Two circuits are needed, a 240V / 40 amp line for the stove and a 120V / 15 amp line for lighting and sound, both installed by a licensed electrician. It ships freight in 10 boxes to a curbside delivery point, and the carrier will call to schedule, so keep your phone number current on the order.
Good to know
- This is a real wood stove sauna, expect genuine steam and heat, not infrared warmth.
- The manufacturer's spec sheet lists outdoor placement for this model, plan a backyard or patio spot rather than an interior room.
- Two separate circuits are required, budget for an electrician visit before your delivery date.
Cedar wood can cause skin or eye irritation, or an allergic skin or breathing reaction, in some people. Stop use if this happens. Actual wood tone and glass tint can look slightly different from the website photos because of lighting during the photo shoot.
