FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the panoramic glass model worth the premium price?
The full 180-degree panoramic dome transforms your sauna experience from a functional wellness feature to a luxury lifestyle addition. Unlike the half-viewing window, this provides complete immersion in your surroundings – whether that’s a tropical garden, a pool area, an ocean view, or a mountain landscape. The dramatically enhanced sense of space, natural light, and visual connection with nature create an unforgettable experience that guests and family will remember. This is our flagship model for those seeking the ultimate outdoor sauna.
How much extra interior space does the panoramic dome add?
The full panoramic dome extends approximately 60cm beyond the standard barrel diameter, creating a spacious viewing alcove that comfortably seats 2-3 people on the curved bench. This premium seating area becomes the most coveted spot in the sauna, offering the best views and a true sense of being outdoors while enjoying therapeutic heat.
Is the panoramic glass safe at high sauna temperatures?
Yes, the premium acrylic panoramic dome is specifically engineered for sauna use and withstands typical operating temperatures (70-90°C) with no issues. The material is shatter-resistant, UV-stabilised, and will not emit toxins when heated. It’s designed to handle thermal expansion and contraction while maintaining a perfect seal in all weather conditions.
Why are there porches on both sides?
The dual porch design provides flexible cooling and socialising spaces. One porch serves as the main entry while the other offers a quiet retreat. This is particularly valuable for larger groups, commercial installations, or when you want separate spaces for entry/exit and relaxation. It also enhances the visual symmetry of this premium model.
Can I see stars through the panoramic dome at night?
Absolutely! One of the most magical experiences of the panoramic model is bathing under the stars at night or in the evening. The dome provides an unobstructed view of the sky, creating a planetarium-like effect while you relax in the warmth. Many owners specifically time their sauna sessions for sunset or stargazing.
What’s the difference between hemlock and spliced red cedar?
Hemlock is a light-coloured, cost-effective softwood with excellent insulation properties and minimal scent. Spliced red cedar offers a premium appearance with a rich, reddish-brown colour, a distinctive aromatic scent, and superior natural rot resistance. Both woods perform excellently in Thailand’s climate. Given the premium nature of this panoramic model, many customers opt for red cedar to complete the luxury experience.
Is this sauna suitable for outdoor use in Thailand?
Yes, this barrel sauna is specifically designed for outdoor installation in tropical climates. Both hemlock and spliced red cedar naturally resist rot, decay, and insects. The waterproof asphalt roof shingles protect against heavy rain, while the 38mm thick walls provide excellent insulation. The panoramic dome is weather-resistant, UV-stable, and engineered for year-round outdoor use.
How is this different from the half-viewing window model?
The panoramic glass model features a full 180-degree acrylic dome that wraps around the entire back section, providing a maximum viewing area and enhancing interior space. The half-viewing window is more subtle, offering views while maintaining more traditional sauna aesthetics. The panoramic model is our most dramatic and luxurious option, while the half-viewing window offers a middle ground between traditional and panoramic designs at a lower price point.
Do I choose between an electric or a wood-burning heater?
We supply the appropriate heater based on your installation location and preferences. During the ordering process, we’ll discuss your requirements and provide either an electric heater (for locations with reliable power) or a wood-burning stove (for off-grid or traditional installations). Both options are included in the price.
How long does assembly take?
With 2-3 people working together, assembly typically takes 1 to 2 days. The panoramic dome section comes pre-assembled, which significantly simplifies installation despite its impressive size. Detailed step-by-step instructions are included. Basic hand tools are all that’s required.
What is the base or foundation I need?
The sauna requires a level, stable surface that can support a weight of 600-700kg when occupied. Recommended options include concrete pads, paving stones, or reinforced timber decking. The surface should extend to accommodate both porches and allow at least 30cm clearance on all sides for ventilation, access, and to fully appreciate the panoramic design.
How do I maintain the panoramic dome?
The panoramic dome requires minimal maintenance. Clean it occasionally with a soft cloth and mild soap solution – avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the acrylic. The material is UV-stabilised, so it won’t yellow or become brittle over time. The curved design naturally sheds rain and debris. Inside, heat keeps it clean.
Is this suitable for commercial or resort installation?
Absolutely. The panoramic model is exceptionally popular for high-end resorts, boutique hotels, luxury villas, and wellness centres where creating a memorable guest experience is paramount. The dramatic visual impact makes it an Instagram-worthy feature that guests will photograph and share. We offer commercial pricing for multiple units.
How long does delivery take to my location?
Standard delivery timeframe is 2-3 weeks from order confirmation for most locations throughout Thailand. Remote areas may require additional time. We’ll confirm your specific delivery schedule during the ordering process and provide tracking information once your sauna ships.
What ongoing costs should I expect?
Electric heaters typically cost 500-800 baht per month in electricity for regular use (3-4 sessions weekly). Wood-burning stoves require firewood purchases. Annual maintenance is minimal, mainly consisting of optional timber treatment and occasional cleaning of the panoramic dome. The stainless steel components and quality timber construction ensure long-lasting durability with minimal upkeep. The premium experience far outweighs the modest running costs.
