Globally Recognised
Award Winning Australian Design
The Elata Sauna has been recognised with Good Design, European Product 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 to withstand intense UV exposure, coastal conditions and heavy rain.
Powerful Heating
Stable Heat, Rich Steam, Even Temperature
Elata’s solid Japanese cedar and substantial stone mass retain heat for a stable, even temperature. Harvia reaches 85 °C in around 60 minutes, while HUUM’s larger stone mass takes around 90 minutes, delivering softer steam and app-connected preheating so it’s ready when you are.
Compare Heaters
Considered Heat Distribution
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.
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.
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.
HUUM App
Control From Anywhere
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.

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.
Elata 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.
Harvia The Wall typically reaches 85 °C in around 60 minutes, while the higher stone mass of the HUUM Drop typically takes around 90 minutes. HUUM’s longer warm-up is balanced by greater thermal stability and softer, richer steam throughout the session. Actual heat-up times may vary with ambient conditions.
Typically 85°C at top-bench height. With a longer pre-heat, both heaters are capable of reaching approximately 95-100 °C.
Yes, use fresh water in small ladles for steam (löyly).
Yes, Elata is designed for outdoor use, so you can leave it exposed to the environment all year round.
Elata 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.
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):
Your Kindra sauna is delivered kerbside by a specialist delivery team, securely packaged in a flat-pack crate. Reflecting the quality of its materials and construction, your sauna weighs over 700 kg.
