SOLID DESIGN & FAST HEAT UP

SOLID DESIGN
& FAST HEAT UP

Our patent-pending smart stave design, and laser-guided milling ensures a waterproof barrel without the need of additional roofing. Our milling design uses two separate joints; a canoe joint for the staves and T&G joint for the walls giving superior strength and rigidity – and the pressure-treated cradle provides a solid support for your barrel sauna.

The round shape of our outdoor barrel sauna ensure a fast heat-up time. With no corners for the heat to get trapped in, means that it’s a very energy-efficient design to make the most of your heat!

As in any genuine sauna,
our outdoor saunas have bi-level benches
TO ensure different temperatures
for your comfort.

1.5” THICK WALLS

Northern Lights cedar saunas start as full 2” x 6” planks of clear, grade A western red cedar that are carefully planed down to create the 1.5” thick walls you’ll see on all of our outdoor barrel saunas. Quality you just won’t find anywhere else.

With this solid construction, not only does it keep the heat in - but it prevents warping as well, ensuring you’re enjoying your cedar saunas for years and years to come!

All of our sauna parts fit through a regular doorway, enabling you to install your sauna just about anywhere. Whether in an enclosed backyard, on a roof terrace, or even on a mountain top (yes, it’s been done!), any hard to reach place is accessible - you will not need a crane.

Our prefab engineering makes your barrel sauna easy to assemble, even for the not-so-handy. All you need is a few basic tools such as a wrench and screwdrivers. Each Northern Lights sauna is packed with detailed assembly instructions and photos, as well as an operating manual to make installation of our outdoor saunas smooth and simple.

“YOU’RE PAYING FOR QUALITY”

I started to research barrel saunas for almost a year. I loved your product, but in the end made the mistake of cheaping out and buying a Costco barrel sauna for $1500 less. We got it delivered and started to assemble it, both my wife and I were not impressed. Needless to say thank God for Costco's great return policy! After 1/2 a day of assembling, we realized we made a BIG mistake and packed it up and shipped it back. But you know the rest of the story and we are now proud owner's of a Northern Lights Barrels Sauna! My only advise to someone looking for a sauna is "you pay for what you get!"

“SUCH A GREAT PRESENT”

I just converted my spare closet into a sauna room. The carbon fibre infrared sauna panel works great. We had a small room, and used 4 panels. I put in a nice little cedar bench to give it some sauna flavour. My wife loves it too. It was a great Xmas present and we will get lots of use.

“TOP CLASS PRODUCT”

I don't often write reviews but in this case Northern Lights Cedar Saunas deserves one! The product is top class, but the sales and service are just as impressive. These guys know what they are doing! I Recommend!

“PERFECTLY SHIPPED TO AUSTRALIA”

Hi Northern Lights it's Aubrey from Australia. We bought our barrel sauna a year ago and you shipped it to the other side of the world. It arrived perfectly, and went together in a day. I was so impressed with the product that my husband and I just placed an order for one of your wooden hot tubs. We can't wait until it arrives, and will be sending you pictures of both as we have a great location that over looks the sea!

“A TRUE SHOW PIECE”

We have had your barrel sauna for 5 years now, and I just want to say want an awesome product you make! We have the wood fired stove and the sauna is at our lake. I can't tell you how many times we have had the neighbours over with their towels in hand. It is a true show piece.

“EASY TO COMPLETE DIY SAUNA KIT”

We just completed installing one of your DIY sauna kits in a 6' x 7' location in our basement. My wife is from Finland and for years has wanted a sauna in our home. I must say I was a little reluctant as I am not the best with a hammer. However, we had the sauna room completed in 2 days including wiring. Your company was a pleasure to work with and I rate you highly!
