A 2 person hybrid cabin for anyone who wants the option of either a real wood fired feel stove session or a Full Spectrum infrared one, without owning two saunas.
The Nora is a Golden Designs hybrid sauna that combines a 6.0 kW stove with a Full Spectrum infrared system, 2 PureTech Near Zero EMF carbon heating panels plus 4 near infrared elements, so you choose the mode per session. Built with an all weather exterior and a Canadian red cedar interior at 59.5" wide by 71" deep by 88.3" tall, it is rated for outdoor placement such as a patio or backyard, and it is a custom production unit made in limited quantity.
Why this model
- Switch between the 6.0 kW stove for traditional high heat and the Full Spectrum infrared panels for a lower, gentler session, all in one 2 person cabin.
- Full Spectrum side runs 6 total emitters, 2 Near Zero EMF carbon panels and 4 near infrared elements, measuring under 3 milligauss at 2 to 3 inches.
- Both the stove and the infrared system run on a single 240V, 30 amp circuit, so you are not wiring two separate systems.
- Canadian red cedar interior with an all weather exterior is built to handle an outdoor spot year round.
- Chromotherapy lighting with a red light therapy feature, plus built in speakers with FM and Bluetooth, cover both relaxation and entertainment.

What's in the box
Fit, power and setup
This is an outdoor unit, so plan for a level pad around 5 feet by 6 feet with roughly 88 inches of clearance above. Both the stove and the Full Spectrum infrared system share a single 240V, 30 amp circuit, so a certified electrician should confirm the wiring before you use it. Panels clasp together, a build two people can usually finish in about an hour to an hour and a half given the 9 box shipment. It ships freight with curbside delivery, and the carrier will call to schedule.
Good to know
- 2 person capacity, with both a stove session and an infrared session available.
- Near Zero EMF applies to the infrared side, where panels are built and tested to keep field exposure very low at close range.
- The stove runs hotter, 170 F to 185 F ideal, while the Full Spectrum infrared side runs a lower 118 F to 132 F ideal range.
Actual finish colors may vary slightly from the website photos due to lighting during photography. Cedar wood can cause eye, skin, respiratory or digestive irritation or an allergic reaction in some people. Stop use if you notice any of these symptoms.
