2025 Custom Cut Sauna information & options
A "custom cut" sauna is a permanently installed sauna that is built into your home or backyard. We offer custom saunas of virtually any shape or size and we can adapt to just about any space that you have available. Custom saunas can be framed from scratch inside finished or unfinished spaces. The exterior can be finished in virtually any way.
We offer framing, insulating, demo (if needed), and installation of custom saunas. Essentially a full build service for reasonable pricing.

Interior Styles:
In addition to the standard interior, we currently have 2 alternate interior styles:
Twilight interior:
This can be added to any of the wood choices, although we typically add it to Spruce/Abachi. It adds the Twilight backrest, and Twilight upper bench skirts, and uses the Twilight style bench with horizontal African Abachi benches with Heat Treated Alder accents

Centurion Interior:
This uses a Hemlock ceiling and benches, with the Black Taika wall panels

Heater Types:
We have 2 traditional heater options and also custom Infrared or Hybrid/Combination
- Designer SL2 heater with WiFi controls: Made in Finland, stainless steel construction, full WiFi functionality

- The Himalaya is our top end heater. It holds 200lbs of rocks and is a freestanding heater that can be integrated into the benches in larger saunas. It comes with the BWT water tank that you can fill with water and automatically humidify the room while you heat it. The BWT tank has a place for fragrances also

- Infrared or Hybrid Infrasauna:
Any custom sauna can be done in Infrared or a combination traditional/Infrared if you desire:
