The glass door is an important part of the sauna experience as it allows for light to come through and yet does not compromise on heat retention.

ACCESSORIES YOU CAN ADD
Here are some sauna accessories to make the best out of your spa experience:
Buying a sauna can be a big commitment for many of us and it can be important to give the sauna the best chance to last up to 20-30 years. That’s why bitumen shingles can be worth considering. They not only provide extra protection from rain and UV damage, but also help to insulate the sauna further and improve its appearance. It is extremely durable and weather-resistant, making it an ideal choice for saunas.
BENEFITS
Nothing feels quite as a good quality cedar sauna. The heat relaxes muscles, eases tension and headaches, and can even help you to sweat out toxins. And while saunas have long been a staple of luxury spas, they are increasingly becoming a popular addition to home gyms and wellness areas. Cedar barrel saunas are especially popular due to their aesthetic appeal, timber properties and purported health benefits.

Fantastic product and service. We bought both a wood-fired Sauna and a wood-fired Hot Tub as the centrepieces for a bush spa zone in our back yard, which has proven a huge hit with family and friends.
