About

Our saunas are custom-designed and handcrafted from premium timber, assembled by our skilled team to ensure the highest quality. Each sauna undergoes rigorous testing before being carefully disassembled into manageable sections, securely packaged, and includes detailed reassembly instructions for a smooth setup upon delivery.

Our Love It or Return It Guarantee allows you to try your Nova Sauna risk-free for 30 days. If you’re not completely satisfied, you can return it for a full refund, and we’ll cover the return shipping costs.

• Traditional saunas use heated air to warm the entire sauna space, typically reaching temperatures between 70°C and 110°C. This creates a dry, high-heat environment, ideal for deep, intense sweating and a classic sauna experience. Traditional saunas can also include steam by pouring water over hot stones, adding humidity to the air for a more soothing effect.

• Infrared saunas, on the other hand, use infrared light to directly warm the body rather than the air around it. This allows for a gentler heat, typically between 45°C and 60°C, which many people find more comfortable while still enjoying the benefits of deep sweating. Infrared heat penetrates the skin more deeply, promoting relaxation, muscle recovery, and improved circulation.

Both Red Western Cedar and Hemlock are exceptional choices for sauna construction, offering premium quality and durability suited to different environments and preferences.

Hemlock is a popular choice for saunas, valued for its smooth texture, light color, and fine grain, which give it a modern and clean aesthetic. Unlike cedar, hemlock is non-aromatic, making it ideal for those who prefer a neutral sauna environment without strong scents. It is also low in resin, reducing the risk of sticky surfaces or allergic reactions.

Red Western Cedar is the premium choice for saunas, renowned for its exceptional durability and superior insulation. It is naturally resilient to moisture, temperature changes, and insects, making it an excellent option for both indoor and outdoor saunas. Its natural oils provide built-in protection against decay, reducing the need for maintenance. Additionally, cedar’s distinct, pleasant aroma enhances the sauna experience, creating a relaxing, spa-like atmosphere. Its rich reddish-brown hue and unique grain patterns add a touch of luxury to any sauna space.

Whether you’re drawn to the smooth, neutral beauty of Hemlock or the aromatic, weather-resistant qualities of Red Cedar, both woods offer exceptional durability and comfort, ensuring a lasting and luxurious sauna experience.

We know we say this a lot, but it’s worth repeating—we use these saunas every single day. And that’s exactly what sets us apart. We’re not just offering a product; we’re living the sauna experience firsthand, testing, refining, and improving every detail based on real-world use. Over the past 16 months, we’ve rigorously tested our designs, making changes based on customer feedback and our own personal experiences. We know what works and what doesn’t because we’ve felt it ourselves—the good, the bad, and everything in between.

This hands-on approach is why every decision we make is backed by real testing and experience, not just theory. From selecting Thermowood for superior durability to redesigning our saunas with straight walls and higher benches for better comfort, and carefully choosing high-performance heaters to ensure consistent, long-lasting heat, we prioritise quality at every step.

When we say our saunas are built for maximum comfort, efficiency, and longevity, we mean it. We’ve pushed them to their limits, in all conditions, to ensure they meet the highest standards.

At Nova Saunas, we don’t just build saunas—we craft an experience built on quality, expertise, and a genuine passion for what we do. That’s why we can confidently say we offer the best sauna experience on the market.

Our Saunas are designed for minimal maintenance, but it's important to care for it to ensure longevity and optimal performance. We recommend wiping down the interior with a damp cloth every month to maintain hygiene. Leaving the door open after use allows airflow, which helps to keep the sauna dry and fresh. Additionally, we suggest varnishing the exterior once assembled and every 6-12 months thereafter, depending on the sauna's location, to protect it from environmental elements and maintain its appearance. These simple steps will help preserve your sauna and ensure years of enjoyment.

At Nova Saunas, we ensure the longevity of our Saunas by using high-quality materials and designing them with minimal components. Leveraging our expertise from the construction industry, this approach maximises durability and reliability. With proper maintenance and care, your Nova Sauna can last 20 years or longer, offering sustained enjoyment and wellness benefits.
