Dry Heat
An infrared sauna for the home.
A home sauna should not require a permit, a contractor, or a new circuit. Every cabin on the list runs on a standard 110V household outlet, arrives assembled in panels, and goes together in an afternoon.
The Retreat One
1-2 people · $7,999
The smallest footprint on the list. Canadian hemlock, far-infrared heat, and a standard outlet — the right answer for a spare corner or a primary bath.

The Retreat Two
2 people · $9,999
Touchscreen control, color light therapy, and an oxygen ionizer. Room for two without asking for a dedicated circuit.

The Retreat Three
3 people · $11,999
A bench for three, built from Canadian hemlock. Shared sessions, or a solo retreat with room to lie down.
See the piece →Do you need an electrician?
Not for these. Traditional rock saunas usually need a 240V dedicated line; far-infrared cabins of this size draw what a space heater draws and plug into a standard outlet. Keep the sauna on its own circuit if you can, and avoid extension cords.
Read the full write-up →Where it goes
Level floor, a few inches of clearance behind the cabin, and an outlet within reach. Basements, garages, primary baths, and spare bedrooms all work. Carpet is fine; a covered porch is fine. Fully exposed outdoor placement is not.
Add cold
Heat followed by cold is the routine most owners settle into. The list carries one chilled plunge, built to live indoors.
Cold plunge tubs for home →Common questions
- Do I need an electrician to install one of these saunas?
- No. Every sauna on the list runs on a standard 110V household outlet, so there is no dedicated circuit, permit, or contractor involved.
- How long does assembly take?
- The cabins arrive as panels and go together in an afternoon with basic tools. Plan for a second person to help move the panels into place.
- What are the saunas built from?
- Canadian hemlock — a low-resin, hypoallergenic wood that resists warping over years of use — with far-infrared electric heating panels.
- What is the lead time and shipping cost?
- Typically 15–30 business days, shipped curbside by freight at a flat $500. White-glove in-home delivery is available on request.
