3 Person Outdoor Hybrid Sauna - Golden Designs Carinthia

Follow the manufacturer's operating instructions for your specific model. The key point for the buyer is that this sauna gives you both heat styles in one outdoor room: Full Spectrum IR for lower-temperature sessions and a traditional stove for steam and hotter air. Do not assume every mode or feature should be used together unless the manual confirms it.

Traditional heat warms the air and the stones. When you add water to the stones, you create löyly, the wave of steam and humidity people associate with a traditional sauna ritual. Full Spectrum IR feels more direct and can be used at lower cabin temperatures. Think of it as a quieter, lower-temperature session rather than the same feeling as steam.

Infrared sessions are typically used at lower temperatures, while the traditional stove needs more time to heat the stones and cabin air properly. Plan longer preheat time when you want the full steam ritual. For exact operating times, use the manual and your outdoor temperature as the practical guide.

Yes. These outdoor hybrid models require dedicated 240V / 40A electrical service for the stove and Full Spectrum system. A certified electrician should review panel capacity, outdoor-rated wiring, circuit route and local code before delivery.

Capacity is a manufacturer rating, but comfort depends on how you use the sauna. A 3 person model is usually most comfortable for one or two regular users. A 5 person model gives more room for shared sessions and a less compressed experience. If stretching out matters, size up.

Confirm the foundation, drainage, gate access, delivery path, final placement and electrical route. These outdoor hybrid saunas ship by LTL freight in multiple boxes, and curbside delivery does not include moving boxes to the backyard, unpacking or assembly.

Do not use the sauna if you are pregnant or trying to conceive, have an active fever, unstable angina, have recently had a heart attack, have severe aortic stenosis, or have uncontrolled high blood pressure. The traditional stove mode operates at higher temperatures than infrared mode, so the heat stress can be more intense. Consult your physician before use if you have any cardiovascular condition, diabetes, or difficulty regulating body temperature. If you have asthma or respiratory sensitivity, use caution with woods such as cedar or hemlock, as heat can intensify natural aromatic compounds that may trigger symptoms in sensitive people.

Consult your physician if you take medication that may affect circulation, blood pressure, sweating, or heat tolerance. Sauna heat can affect how some medications are tolerated. Remove transdermal medication patches before each session unless your physician tells you otherwise, as sauna temperatures may change how quickly medicine is absorbed through the skin. This information is general and does not replace professional medical advice.

After each session, wipe benches and backrests with a damp cloth to remove sweat. Use only diluted white vinegar and water or cleaners specifically approved for sauna wood. Avoid bleach, ammonia, solvents and harsh household cleaners. After use, remove damp towels and leave the door slightly open so the cabin can dry. Because this is an outdoor sauna, inspect the exterior regularly, keep drainage clear and follow the manufacturer's maintenance instructions for the exterior stain, roof protection and seasonal exposure. Inspect sauna stones annually. Over time, stones can erode and block airflow, which may overheat the heating elements and reduce efficiency.
