APPALACHIA 6-PERSON CABIN SAUNA
The Appalachia is a traditional cabin sauna that fully encompasses the authentic Finnish experience. From the thick Nordic Spruce planks milled from the forests of Finland to the enlivening steam that bursts from water on hot stones, this sauna has it all. The traditional cabin-style design includes a changing room and front porch area, large enough for six individuals to sit comfortably. The Appalachia is suited for a variety of electric and wood heater options allowing you to curate your very own rustic getaway in your backyard.
The Appalachia
This cabin sauna will impress anyone who steps foot inside. It has a full front porch, an attached changing room, and a spacious sauna room. The changing room can be outfitted with a variety of furniture or hooks, and is the perfect spot to get ready for a sauna even in the middle of winter. The sauna room has two bench levels, which can be split between six people for a sauna party or allow just a few people to stretch out and relax. The cabin design includes a sloping roof, interlocking timber pieces, a railing, and solid lumber. The sauna room can be outfitted with a Harvia 8kW electric heater or a wood-burning stove. If you favor convenience, the electric heater can delay the start time up to eight hours before it heats the room up to temperatures of 180ºF. Upgrade any backyard, retreat, or lodge with the Appalachia cabin sauna!

Due to the size of the Appalachia, specialized flatbed shipping is required. The customer is responsible for offloading. This is typically done with a rented forklift, or offloading the unit piece-by-piece with a group of 3-4 people.
Shipping included except for extremely remote locations. Additional fees required for addresses that are outside of the contiguous United States.
-
Definite handyman or contracting skills are required. The instructions are basic and written for a global market with the assumption that the assembler has construction experience. Do not attempt to build on your own if you are not familiar with construction practices nor able to work with general instructions. It is recommended that you read the assembly manual in advance if you are unsure of your ability. Two people can generally assemble the unit in 2-3 days.

Traditional saunas require very little upkeep. Simply wipe down the interior after each use and check for any dust or debris that you may have tracked in. Read more about long-term care and maintenance here.
