BENEFITS
-
Two heating styles in one large sauna: You get both full spectrum infrared heat and a traditional stove in the same sauna. Infrared gives a gentle, steady heat that feels comfortable and evenly distributed. The traditional stove gives stronger steam heat when you want a classic sauna session. Having both options means your sauna can match your mood, the weather, or your wellness goals.
- Room for up to six people: This model has enough space for six adults to sit comfortably without feeling crowded. That means you can enjoy sauna sessions with family, friends, or rotate turns without rushing. A larger interior also makes heat feel more balanced throughout the space.
- Canadian red cedar interior for warmth and comfort: The wood inside is Canadian red cedar, which has a warm look and feel and handles heat and humidity well. Cedar also gives a natural atmosphere that many people find inviting and pleasant during sauna time.
- Outdoor-ready build for year round use:Â The exterior and hardware are designed for outdoor conditions so you can place this sauna in your backyard and use it through different seasons. It stands up to outdoor elements while still giving a cozy interior.
- Lighting that enhances relaxation:Â Color lighting and accent lights inside help set a calming mood for your sessions. You can enjoy a more soothing environment, especially in the evening or during cooler seasons.
- Music built in so you do not need extra equipment:Â The control panel includes Bluetooth, FM radio, and built-in speakers so you can play music, podcasts, or other audio without needing separate devices. That makes it easier to start relaxing as soon as you enter the sauna.

FAQ
How long does delivery usually take to my area?
Most orders ship by freight and get scheduled for a delivery appointment once they reach your local terminal. If you’re closer to major metro areas, it’s usually faster. Rural routes and islands can take longer because they often require extra carrier handoffs.
Does the Kaskinen need a special electrical setup?
Yes. This model lists a 240V / 40 AMP electrical service for the stove and full spectrum system. If you’re not already set up for that on your patio or backyard area, plan on having a licensed electrician handle the final connection.
What’s the difference between the traditional stove and the full spectrum infrared?
The traditional stove is the “classic sauna” feel hotter air heat and the session most people picture when they think sauna. Full spectrum infrared is a different style of heat that feels more direct and is typically used at lower temperatures. The Kaskinen is a hybrid, so you can choose the style that fits the day.
How many infrared heaters does it have?
The product page lists 15 full spectrum emitters total: 7 carbon PureTech panels and 8 near infrared elements.
How hot does it get?
For the traditional stove, the page lists an ideal range of 170–185°F and notes it can reach up to 190°F. For full spectrum infrared, the ideal range listed is 118–132°F and it can reach up to 140°F.
How much space do I need in the backyard?
The exterior size listed is 84" W Ă— 69" D Ă— 95" H. The page also notes the roof overhang adds 4" to the depth, so give yourself a little extra room behind it when planning a pad or deck location.
How many people fit comfortably?
It’s listed as a 6-person sauna. In real use, it depends on how your group likes to sit four adults feels spacious, six is realistic if you’re fine being closer (especially if everyone is in it at the same time).
Can it stay outside year-round in snow, coastal air, or high humidity?
It’s listed for outdoor use with an all-weather exterior and a Canadian red cedar interior. In wet or snowy climates, the big wins are simple: place it on a solid, level base with drainage, don’t let snow pile up against the bottom edges, and let the interior dry out after sessions (a quick wipe-down and leaving the door cracked helps).
How heavy is it, and what foundation should I use?
The assembled weight listed is 1600 lbs (shipping weight 1795 lbs). For that kind of weight, you want a stable base: concrete pad, properly prepped pavers, or a deck that’s built to handle the load. Flat and level matters more than anything.
What’s included with the Kaskinen?
The page lists a bronze privacy tempered glass door, interior ceiling galaxy star color therapy lighting, an interior backrest accent light, an interior LED control panel with FM + Bluetooth, built-in speakers, and accessories (sandglass, bucket, and scoop).

FAQ
How long does delivery usually take to my area?
Most orders ship by freight and get scheduled for a delivery appointment once they reach your local terminal. If you’re closer to major metro areas, it’s usually faster. Rural routes and islands can take longer because they often require extra carrier handoffs.
Does the Kaskinen need a special electrical setup?
Yes. This model lists a 240V / 40 AMP electrical service for the stove and full spectrum system. If you’re not already set up for that on your patio or backyard area, plan on having a licensed electrician handle the final connection.
What’s the difference between the traditional stove and the full spectrum infrared?
The traditional stove is the “classic sauna” feel hotter air heat and the session most people picture when they think sauna. Full spectrum infrared is a different style of heat that feels more direct and is typically used at lower temperatures. The Kaskinen is a hybrid, so you can choose the style that fits the day.
How many infrared heaters does it have?
The product page lists 15 full spectrum emitters total: 7 carbon PureTech panels and 8 near infrared elements.
How hot does it get?
For the traditional stove, the page lists an ideal range of 170–185°F and notes it can reach up to 190°F. For full spectrum infrared, the ideal range listed is 118–132°F and it can reach up to 140°F.
How much space do I need in the backyard?
The exterior size listed is 84" W Ă— 69" D Ă— 95" H. The page also notes the roof overhang adds 4" to the depth, so give yourself a little extra room behind it when planning a pad or deck location.
How many people fit comfortably?
It’s listed as a 6-person sauna. In real use, it depends on how your group likes to sit four adults feels spacious, six is realistic if you’re fine being closer (especially if everyone is in it at the same time).
Can it stay outside year-round in snow, coastal air, or high humidity?
It’s listed for outdoor use with an all-weather exterior and a Canadian red cedar interior. In wet or snowy climates, the big wins are simple: place it on a solid, level base with drainage, don’t let snow pile up against the bottom edges, and let the interior dry out after sessions (a quick wipe-down and leaving the door cracked helps).
How heavy is it, and what foundation should I use?
The assembled weight listed is 1600 lbs (shipping weight 1795 lbs). For that kind of weight, you want a stable base: concrete pad, properly prepped pavers, or a deck that’s built to handle the load. Flat and level matters more than anything.
What’s included with the Kaskinen?
The page lists a bronze privacy tempered glass door, interior ceiling galaxy star color therapy lighting, an interior backrest accent light, an interior LED control panel with FM + Bluetooth, built-in speakers, and accessories (sandglass, bucket, and scoop).
