Nothing beats the beauty of a backyard barrel sauna outdoors. It’s a rustic statement piece out on the patio or back by the garden, and it makes self-care and wellness more accessible than ever. That’s why our outdoor barrel sauna selection is one of our best-selling at SaunaKits.com.
The curved shape of these saunas was originally developed because it heats faster and stays heated more evenly than a square cabin-style sauna. Hot air just keeps circulating around instead of pooling in the corners of the roof. Plus, rain, snow, and leaves shed off the top of the sauna seamlessly rather than having to be blown off on a regular basis.
Discover the latest and greatest models from the best brands in the entire sauna industry, including Dundalk Leisurecraft, Sunray, Golden Designs, Finnmark, and SaunaLife barrel saunas. We have the lowest prices online, guaranteed, and you can use FSA/HSA funds for the purchase as well. We have hassle-free financing options, too.
You can choose the heater that fits your budget, be it an electric heater or a wood-burning stove. There are even hybrid barrel saunas if you want infrared technology to go with the traditional sauna experience.
From 2-6 person outdoor barrel saunas and prices starting at $4,300, there’s something for everyone at SaunaKits.com. Take our Sauna Quiz or ask our customer service team for a personalized recommendation today!
Yes! This is where they belong, as a matter of fact. They’re the perfect outdoor sauna because they handle rain, snow, and leaves really well. They just have to be made from a weather-resistant wood, such as cedar.
You really can’t beat a barrel sauna outdoors. They heat more evenly (and faster), they look stunning, and the elements don’t take a toll on them. They’re our personal favorite style.
It depends on the size, brand, and heater you choose. We have models starting at around $4,300 but you’ll find outdoor barrel saunas that cost more than $10k, too. Rest assured you’re getting the lowest price online, guaranteed. You get free shipping and hassle-free financing, and our customers are able to use FSA/HSA funds as well.
Depends on the material it is made from, where it’s installed, and how you care for it. Many barrel saunas can last over a decade outdoors, even in harsh conditions. Stave thickness is paramount to a long lifespan. SaunaLife uses 1.65-inch staves for longevity.
A 6kW heater is plenty for most 2-4 person barrel saunas outdoors. Go with a 7-8kW heater for a larger 5-6 person barrel sauna. The Dundalk and Sunray saunas on this page come with a heater pre-matched to the barrel to take the guesswork out of it. Ask our customer service team for a personalized recommendation.
