Mobile wood-fired saunas that goes where you go
Not all barrel saunas are built the same, and the details matter.
For our larger 16’ and 20’ barrel saunas, we use sustainably sourced, clear grade redwood instead of cedar. Why? Redwood is more dimensionally stable, meaning it holds its shape better over time. Like cedar, redwood is also naturally resistant to decay, moisture, insects and pests.
We then incorporate interior dado cuts with stainless steel banding to provide additional structural support, which helps prevent compression and shrinkage through the center of the barrel.
So whether you’re expanding a wellness facility, creating a destination experience for your guests, or adding a new amenity to your hospitality space, our larger barrel saunas are designed with group experiences and long term use in mind.
Fellow sauna operators, what’s one detail you wish more people considered when choosing a sauna for their space? Let’s talk shop in the comments.

Wood fired vs Electric Sauna
It’s one of the first questions we address on our calls at Nomad Sauna and the question really boils down to this:
How much do you like starting fires?
I’m the guy who would start multiple fires per day every day of my life . If we’re at a campfire together, I will fight with you to start the fire, and it will get awkward.
Fire for me is more than ritual. I find myself in the flames.
If that’s not you, then go electric!
It’s hard to top the convenience of wifi controls, precise heating control, and push button start.
They all get hot. They all produce steam. There’s no right answer.
80% of our backyard installs are electric. Most people want convenience at their homes.
Some people (like the guy below who custom built a wood rack to match his new sauna) want more than convenience though.
I love when people choose woodfired for their backyards, because it’s a statement.
It’s a recognition that heat is about more than temperature.
That the alchemy of sauna is about more than kilowatts and cubic feet.
That not only do we find ourselves on the bench
It’s also where we lose ourselves
Built from something forgotten ~
Turned into heat, light, and long nights that linger.
Steel bones. Cedar breath. Fire at the center.
Do they make a return… or stay a rare chapter?

This almost never happens. We have a Nomad Sauna in stock and ready for its new home.
We build mobile saunas ~ it’s what we do. But we rarely have one available to buy on the spot. They’re built to order, and a wait list that’s growing.
This one’s different. It’s here. It’s finished. And it’s stunning.
Clear grade western red cedar. Bookmatched interior. Propane-fired. Half-moon overlook window. 6.5’ x 10’ seating 6–8 comfortably.
Every detail, dialed. Ready to roll.
If you’ve been thinking about it ~ this is the one.
Serious inquiries ~ this is no kit
