Frequently asked questions

Our goal is to provide clear, direct answers to help resolve common
questions and provide important information about our product.

Do you offer the option of a wood burning heater?

We do not. The Canadian rules for clearance spaces around wood stoves is so large that we would have to build the sauna so large that we would not be able to move the modular sauna panels.

 

Almost all wood-burning outdoor saunas on the market would not pass a W.E.T.T. inspection in Canada (Wood Energy Technology Transfer). If a sauna fails this inspection, there could be insurance issues in case of a fire. If considering a wood-burning sauna, it's essential to thoroughly investigate all safety issues related to W.E.T.T. compliance.

 

Here are some articles where saunas have caught on fire. It does happen if the sauna is not built properly. Some of the pictures in the articles show burnt down barrel saunas. Almost all outdoor saunas on the market (except ours) are not legal when it comes to the heater (electric and wood burning), controls and any electrical. No matter what sauna you buy, please make sure you do your homework and verify that everything is compliant with CSA or W.E.T.T.

Our workshop is at: 160 Finchdene Square, Unit 11, Scarborough, M1X 1B2.

 

We don’t have room in our shop to keep a permanent demo unit there but we usually have 2-3 sauna builds going on at the same time so there is a good chance we have a fully built unit for you to come and check out.

We also have a 4 person sauna that was built for testing, using and showing customers at 3 Hamilton Hall Drive, Markham.

If you want to see a demo, just send us a message and we can let you know if we have one of our latest builds available in our shop or if you should come to Markham.
