Award Winning Australian Design
The Kala Sauna has been recognised with both the Good Design and Red Dot Awards for its considered approach to form, function, and timeless design.

Rain-Ready Construction
Weatherproof Corrugated Iron Roof
A high-grade corrugated roof with integrated flashing channels water safely off the structure, keeping the cabin secure, low-maintenance and built to endure Australia’s climate.
Engineered to Endure
Built for Australia’s Harshest Conditions
Kiln-dried Southern Spotted hardwood, 316 marine-grade stainless steel and galvanised corrugated roofing – selected for UV, coastal air and heavy rain – delivering year-round performance with minimal upkeep.

Powerful Heating
Rapid Heat-Up, Rich Steam, Even Temperature
Choose Harvia The Wall 6 kW or HUUM Drop 6 kW (app-connected) – both reach 85 °C in ~40 minutes and can approach 100 °C with longer warm-ups; HUUM’s larger stone mass delivers steadier heat and softer, richer steam.
Compare Heaters
Feel The Heat
Elevated Benches, Optimal Heat
High-set benches place you in the top third of the cabin – the hottest layer – delivering a stronger, more even heat with less energy sitting unused at the ceiling.

Ergonomic Design
Stretch Out, Switch Off
Extra-deep, two-tier benches and a gentle recline support a natural posture, so you can lean back, fully extend, and stay comfortable through the heat.

High Airflow – Low Carbon
Fresh Air, Even Heat Distribution
Four adjustable ventilation points are precisely positioned to ensure even heat distribution while preventing carbon dioxide buildup for a safe, refreshing & oxygen rich cabin.

HUUM App
Sauna Smarter
The HUUM Drop 6 kW heater pairs with the HUUM app for full remote control, letting you schedule sessions, preheat in advance, and simplify your routine.

Schedule a CallFrequently Asked Questions
Do you run seasonal sales or promotions?
No, we do not run seasonal sales or promotions. This keeps pricing transparent and removes time-pressured decision making. The price you see is the best price at any time of year.
New customers can still access a one-time welcome discount by signing up to our newsletter.
What does expert assembly include?
Expert assembly includes building the full sauna cabin, installing all panels, roofing, benches, doors, glazing, hardware, and clearing all packaging.
It does not include hanging the heater, wiring the heater, or fitting the LED lighting, as all of these are best handled by the licensed electrician during the electrical connection.
How many people does Kala seat?
Kala is designed to seat 2–3 adults. The upper bench comfortably fits two adults during hotter sessions, with the lower bench offering extra space when required. A fourth adult may also stand, bringing the total capacity to up to four adults per session.
How long does it take for Kala to heat up?
About 40 minutes to ~85 °C in typical conditions. The high stone mass then smooths out temperature swings, keeping heat and steam consistent throughout the session.
What temperatures can Kala reach?
Typically 85°C at top-bench height. With a longer pre-heat and the addition of water, both heaters are capable of reaching approximately 95 °C.
Can I pour water on the stones?
Yes, use fresh water in small ladles for steam (löyly).
Can I leave Kala outside exposed to the rain?
Yes, Kala is designed for outdoor use, so you can leave it exposed to the environment all year round.
Whats the difference between the Kala and an Infrared sauna?
Kala is a traditional sauna, delivering high, enveloping heat (85–95 °C) with optional steam — supporting a stronger cardiovascular load, deeper relaxation, and better post-session sleep.
Infrared saunas run cooler (45–60 °C) and much drier. They suit shorter, milder sessions, but typically don’t reach the heat-adaptation range associated with the benefits seen at 85 °C and above.
What's the difference between Kala and other outdoor saunas?
Many barrel and off-the-shelf saunas are poorly designed. They warm more slowly due to undersized heaters, while lower benches keep you in cooler air and their curved ceilings trap heat overhead. Ventilation and materials are often poor, leading to harsher steam and quicker weathering in Australian conditions.
How much does a session cost to run?
Here’s an easy way to estimate running cost using your own electricity usage rate.
Cost formula
Cost = Heater kW × Hours × Your rate (per kWh)
Example (6 kW heater):
- 1 hour at full power: 6 × 1 × $0.30 ≈ $1.80
How does my sauna get delivered?
Your sauna weighs in excess of 500 kg and will be delivered by a specialist delivery provider in a flat packed crate to your curb for easily assembly. Pre-assembled panels and components can then be unpacked and moved to your desired assembly location.
Do you ship overseas?
Yes, we ship all over the world. International shipping costs will apply, and will be added at checkout. Expert assembly is unavailable for orders outside of Australia.
What maintenance do I need to do for my Kala?
Timber Care
- Apply food-grade paraffin oil to the benches and backrest every 12 months (6 months with heavy use). Each sauna arrives double-coated for your convenience.
- Apply CUTEK CD50® with the Dusky Brown colourtone to the Southern Spotted cladding every 24–36 months, or sooner if UV exposure is high. This helps maintain its appearance, colour, and weather resistance. If left untreated, the timber will gradually weather to a silver-grey patina.
Post-Use Ventilation
- Wipe down excess water from surfaces and allow the sauna to air out after each use to prevent excessive moisture build-up.
What does the 5 year warranty cover?
Our 5-year warranty covers all design, manufacturing, or part failures under fair and expected use. If something breaks where it shouldn’t, we’ll send a replacement part or, for more complex repairs, dispatch an expert to fix it. This reflects our confidence in the quality and durability of your sauna and ensures peace of mind knowing your investment is protected.
If something doesn’t perform as it should due to a defect or an issue with materials or workmanship, we’ll make it right.
Heater warranties are separate:
- Harvia heater: 12 months
