Ultimate Comfort, Durability, and Style
The SaunaLife Model E8 ERGO-Series Outdoor Sauna Barrel is meticulously designed by sauna enthusiasts to offer the most comfortable, durable, and visually appealing barrel saunas available. Precision-engineered in Northern Europe, this sauna seamlessly blends traditional sauna bathing with modern innovation.
Ergonomics – Superior Barrel Sauna Comfort
Investing in an outdoor sauna barrel means prioritizing comfort. The Model E8 features a generous 6’5” interior height, ensuring ample headroom and comfortable seating. Its large diameter allows for ergonomically contoured benches and arched backrests made from silky-smooth, knot-free grade-A Thermo-Aspen, offering true lumbar support for all body sizes.
Durability – Built for a Lifetime of Outdoor Bathing Pleasure
Constructed from Thermo-Spruce, which lasts up to twice as long as Cedar, the E8 Sauna Barrel is designed to endure. The 1.65” thick full-length staves provide exceptional thermal resistance (R-value) and stability, making this chemical-free, eco-friendly wood ideal for outdoor saunas. The thick Thermo-Aspen benches and backrests ensure durability and comfort, offering nearly 50% more thickness than most saunas.
Ingenuity – Engineered to Exceed Expectations
The E8 is packed with innovative features. Heavy-duty stainless steel barrel bands (1-7/8” wide x 1/8” thick) compress the staves, creating a secure and stable structure. The watertight black shingle roof kit with side-mounted drip edges provides excellent rainwater management. Dual floor drains effectively eliminate water, one positioned under the heater (sold separately) and another near the door for cold plunge or pool water.
Illumination – Enhancing Your Sauna Experience
Illuminate your sauna with SaunaLife’s superior white LED lighting system, controlled via a Wi-Fi app or handheld remote. The dotless LED lights provide an enchanting, even glow. Expandable up to four fixtures, the E Sconce+ Package offers additional outdoor LED wall sconces and an interior LED lightbar. For a vibrant sauna party atmosphere, consider the E MOOD Lighting Package for a range of inspirational and relaxing color effects.
Beauty – A Complement to Any Outdoor Oasis
SaunaLife sources the highest quality Nordic Spruce, dried to a rich golden color that accentuates its distinctive grain and rustic tight-knot charm. The barrel interior benefits from ergonomically designed benches and backrests of ultra-smooth Thermo-Aspen, a grade-A wood species that is rich in color and free from knots. A complimentary bottle of paraffin oil, a natural wax, is provided to enrich and preserve the interior luster.
The MODEL E8 home sauna is designed by SaunaLife and precision-crafted in Northern Europe, where sauna bathing is an integral part of daily life. Enjoy a lifetime of wellness in your own backyard and Live the SaunaLife!
