Heat & Horizon

A made-to-order barrel sauna built from clear, knotless Grade-A Canadian cedar — or your choice of Japanese cedar or Finnish pine — with a half-panoramic pane of 8 mm tempered glass across the back, two facing benches under an arched ceiling, and a choice of wood-burning or electric heat.

• Clear, knotless Grade-A Canadian red cedar — a higher grade than the knotty rustic cedar many competitors use, naturally resistant to rot and decay.
• 38.5 mm (1.5 in) solid wood panels — thicker than a typical barrel sauna, for better heat retention outdoors.
• A half-glazed 8 mm tempered-glass back opens the end of the barrel to the view, so the heat looks out on the yard rather than a blank wall.
• The cylindrical shell heats fast and evenly — no square corners to trap cold air — drawn tight by ratcheting 304 stainless bands.
• Heated your way — a wood-burning stove, or an electric heater in 110 V or 220 V. FSC-certified wood, CE certified, 3-year warranty.

Materials

Solid Wood
Built to order in your choice of three woods, with no veneer or engineered core. Canadian red cedar is the premium choice — clear and knotless Grade-A, a higher grade than the knotty rustic cedar many outdoor saunas use, and naturally resistant to rot and decay. Japanese cedar (sugi) is fine and straight-grained, light and fragrant. Finnish pine is thermally treated for durability — the clean, economical option. Panels are 38.5 mm (1.5 in) solid wood, thicker than most for better heat retention. The wood is FSC certified.

Tempered Glass
A half-panoramic pane of 8 mm tempered safety glass glazes the back of the barrel for the view, with a matching 8 mm tempered-glass door on stainless hinges at the front.

Stainless Steel
Ratcheting 304 stainless steel bands draw the staves tight around the barrel, and the whole cabin rests on black powder-coated steel cradles rather than touching the ground.

Design

A classic Scandinavian barrel opened up at one end — the round form sheds rain and snow while the glass wall keeps it from feeling like a box.

• The cylindrical shape heats fast and evenly: warm air circulates around the curve instead of stalling in the cold corners a square or rectangular cabin leaves behind.
• The low arched ceiling keeps the heated volume tight, so the stove brings the room up quickly and holds it there.
• Facing benches with slatted backrests seat two to four and leave a clear footwell down the center.
• The half-glazed glass back frames the view and pulls daylight deep into the cabin.
• Black asphalt shingles cap the barrel against weather, and a covered front porch gives a dry place to step in and out.
• A roof vent and the glass door manage airflow and make the cabin easy to cool down and air out.

Questions About The Ragnar Barrel Sauna

How long until I receive my order?

The Ragnar Barrel Sauna arrives approximately 90 - 120 days from the day of order.

Our products take longer to arrive than most others on the internet. But there's a good reason why. Most of our pieces are made to order and ship directly from the source. We don’t keep warehouses or carry excess inventory. This is how we cut costs and pass thousands in savings back to you. But it also means you have to wait a bit longer.

What is your return policy

The Ragnar Barrel Sauna can be returned after receiving the order only if the product is damaged or unusable.

Our products are made to order. So we cannot offer returns for changes in preference. But we always do what we can to make it right.

To be returned, products need to be completely unused and still in their original packaging.

How can I track my order?

The Ragnar Barrel Sauna ships within 45 days of order placement.

Once your order has been shipped, you will receive an email with tracking details, allowing you to monitor its progress. Simply use the provided tracking information on our delivery partner’s website to stay updated on your shipment.
