For electrical heaters – we supply an electrical rough-in kit that mounts on the back of the sauna. With this kit, having your sauna hooked up will be considerably easier and save you some money. You will need to have a licensed electrician to wire this. We can refer an electrician that knows our saunas. Or you can use your own.

Installation

We offer delivery and assembly for $885 within an hour of Calgary or in the Bow Valley. Please call for rates beyond that. We can also send your SQR to you in a package for you to put together.

Any solid base will work to place the sauna. SQR weighs in at about 500 kgs. We recommend the following, in order of preference:

Concrete or large paver (Techo-Bloc) pad. If placed professionally, this offers a solid foundation for your sauna. It's important the pad be poured or placed level. Costs would be site and supplier specific. This is something the customer would need to coordinate. Most Landscapers can do this. Cost typically ranges between $1,800 and $3,600.

20mm Rundle, Limestone or road crush compacted in a 4x6 timber frame. The sauna then sits on sleepers which in turn sit on the stone. If compacted properly, the sauna will not move after an initial settling period. This option offers good drainage, but frost heaving is possible. Costs would be site and supplier specific. This is something the customer would need to coordinate. Most Landscapers can do this. Cost typically ranges between $1,600 and $2,600.

Bottom line

We will work with you to find the best solution for placing your sauna.
