Skamet Wood Burner

Whilst electric versions are widely available we only offer a wood fired heater to pair with our saunas.  Our option, the Skanet SS-110 comes complete with protective metal panels, chimney and a very generous 100KG of stones.  It also includes a cylindrical water tank that fits around the chimney which  provides a convenient source for creating wonderfully relaxing steam once the stones have become hot. Electric heaters can be considered more convenient but the time taken to reach the necessary temperature is very similar to using wood.  You also miss a large part of the romantic ritual that reflects the Nordic spirit of sauna bathing.  The lighting of the stove, adding logs as the fire begins to roar and the evocative, sweet aroma of wood smoke as the flames glow and dance behind the glass.  The hypnotic flickering of a real fire in your sauna cabin immeasurably adds to the general feeling of calmness, connection and wellbeing.  You simply cannot replicate the natural yet intense heat obtained by burning quality seasoned logs with an electric source.

If you wish to buy, simply add to the order when you’ve chosen your sauna house. If you’d prefer to source a different type of heater, that’s ok too. We won’t be offended.
