Modern Outdoor Sauna

Sana garden sauna in 70 mm CLT with thermo-aspen and HUUM CORE (10.5 kW)

The Bloomcabin Sana is a compact rectangular outdoor sauna for contemporary gardens. Straight walls, a light thermo-aspen interior, and toughened-glass doors and windows with aluminium frames define its clean-lined design. Choose between two window layouts and a black or natural exterior finish to suit your site and deck; heating is electric.

Before ordering, confirm the base, delivery route, window position, electrical connection and exterior finish. Explore more models in the Bloomcabin sauna range.

Clean-lined design for contemporary outdoor areas

Straight walls, vertical exterior cladding and dark aluminium frames give Sana its crisp, contemporary architecture.

Its square footprint makes it easy to position beside a deck, pool or pergola. Still leave adequate space for installation, cleaning and exterior maintenance. A very tight fit may look tidy, but makes later access to components more difficult.

View the proposed site from several directions: the house, seating area and garden path. The window side, entrance and roof edge, not just the front, determine how the sauna sits within the property.

Black or natural: two distinct garden looks

In the natural finish, the timber feels warm and works especially well with decking, natural stone and green planting.

The black option is more striking and suits dark window frames, aluminium pergolas and minimalist outdoor settings particularly well.

Consider maintenance as well as appearance at the chosen site. Depending on the surroundings, dust, splash marks or plant debris may show differently on black and natural finishes.

Light thermo-aspen creates a calm, open interior

The interior is lined with thermally treated aspen. Its light colour and subtle grain suit the sauna’s linear design. Sauna towels or suitable seat covers help protect bench surfaces from sweat and dirt during regular use.

Thermo-aspen provides a warm contrast to the dark aluminium frames. Daylight enters the cabin through the glazing, so sun direction and outlook influence the atmosphere more than in a largely enclosed timber sauna.

Light timber, glass and indirect lighting make the compact cabin feel more spacious. Clear lines and understated grain also create a calm, cohesive interior.

70 mm CLT panels form the load-bearing structure

The three-layer 70 mm CLT panels form the walls and contribute to the clearly defined rectangular building shape.

Because of the large solid-timber elements, the base, unloading, transport to the site and installation need to be coordinated early.

The ground must be load-bearing, permanently level and suitable for the structure. Effective drainage is equally important: rainwater must not collect at the base, while adjoining surfaces should lead water away without making access to the door uneven.

Choose rear or side windows to suit the view

Sana is available in two layout options: the window can be positioned at the rear or on the side.

A rear window suits a preferred view opposite the entrance. A side window can work better where Sana runs parallel to a deck, pool or house wall. Consider both the seated view and privacy from outside.

Before ordering, mark out the footprint, door side and window position at the intended site. This shows whether walls, plants or garden furniture restrict the view, and whether the door can open without extending into paths or seating areas.

Electric heating with HUUM CORE and UKU Glass

The HUUM CORE is operated with the UKU Glass controller. Its simple glass surface complements the modern interior.

The sauna requires a three-phase 400-V, 50 Hz electrical supply. Have the cable route, protection, controls and connection assessed before installation by a licensed electrical professional, who can confirm equipment suitability and certification for the site. Planning the supply only after the base is complete can leave inconvenient cable runs and hard-to-reach connection points.

No firewood store or chimney is needed. Instead, plan the electrical cable entry so connection and servicing areas remain accessible later.

Indirect LED lighting for a restrained ambience

The LEDs are fitted beneath the benches, keeping the light source itself discreetly in the background.

In evening use, the lighting highlights the warm colour of the thermo-aspen without illuminating the sauna like an ordinary room.

The indirect lighting is designed for atmosphere. Additional lighting in the adjacent outdoor area may therefore help with cleaning and visual checks.

Flexible space for families, guests and relaxed sessions for two

At full occupancy, seating comfort depends on body size, preferred distance and personal sense of space. Anyone who often uses the sauna with several people should assess the available bench area as well as the stated capacity.

The larger cabin can also suit couples who want more freedom of movement and personal seating space.

If you mainly sauna alone, weigh the additional garden space against the desired interior comfort. Sana comes into its own particularly with changing occupancy and shared sauna sessions.

Plan a base for a total weight of around 1,800 kg

Sana has a total weight of approximately 1,800 kg. The planned base must support the sauna permanently and must not settle unevenly under load.

A professionally constructed concrete slab or comparably load-bearing solution may be suitable. The right design depends on the existing ground and planned build-up and should be assessed by a qualified professional.

For an existing deck or timber structure, an impression of stability is not enough. The structure, bearings and condition must be suitable for the actual load. Also allow for the temporary loads during unloading and installation.

Integrate Sana into a modern sauna and relaxation area

Its rectangular form allows Sana to combine well with a pergola, pool or contemporary deck. Keep the entrance clear, and ensure routes between sauna and relaxation area remain safe to walk on when wet. Furniture must not block installation or maintenance access.

A pergola beside the freestanding sauna can create a sheltered place to rest. For an outdoor shower or cooling area, controlled drainage is important so splash water neither reaches the timber façade continuously nor remains on walkways.

Repeat colours and materials from the sauna, deck and pergola deliberately, without placing components too close together. Adequate spacing keeps exterior surfaces accessible and easy to clean.

Sana and Elma L: distinct concepts with modern styling

The Elma L differs in the thickness of its CLT elements, its extensively glazed front and the design of its benches.

Sana instead offers a compact square footprint, two selectable window positions and a lower proportion of glass.

Compare glazing, bench arrangement and the effect of the footprint at the intended site as well as the modern appearance. The key question is which model suits your garden, deck and existing access.

Caring for glass, thermo-aspen and exterior cladding

Clean the glass with a product suitable for both the glass and adjacent materials. Apply cleaner to a soft cloth rather than spraying it directly onto seals, aluminium frames or timber, and remove all residue.

After every sauna session, the interior must be able to dry completely. Remove damp towels, covers and loose items, wipe away visible moisture with a clean cloth and keep the existing ventilation clear.

The care required for exterior cladding depends on the selected finish. Check weather-exposed sides, low-level areas and junctions in particular for dirt or visible change. Use only care products suitable for the relevant surface to avoid staining and uneven results.

Who is Bloomcabin Sana right for?

Sana particularly suits contemporary family homes, pool areas and decks where a clean-lined sauna is wanted as a permanent part of the outdoor space.

The model suits families, couples and guests who value a light cabin and generous personal seating space.

A permanently suitable site and professional implementation of the 400-V connection are essential. If these conditions cannot be met, Sana is not the right choice.

Sana in an urban garden: plan space and integration carefully

The compact square footprint makes it easier to fit into clearly structured gardens. External dimensions alone do not show the real space requirement. You also need room for installation and maintenance, an unobstructed door area and a suitable cable route.

At an overall height of 253 cm, Sana remains clearly visible even on a small site. Assess the location not only on a plan, but also from house windows and key seating areas. Before finalising the site, check the requirements applying to your property with the relevant council.

Planting and fixed garden features must not obstruct airflow, façade care or access. Plants should not remain in permanent contact with timber and glass; sufficient spacing also makes leaves and dirt easier to remove.

Check configuration and site together before ordering

Before ordering, prepare a simple site plan with the external dimensions, door side, selected window position, cable route and adjoining surfaces. This helps identify early whether the base, access and configuration work together.

Do not make your choice from product images alone. Assess the outlook from normal seated height and compare black and natural finishes directly with the deck, façade and garden features at the intended site.

Then have a licensed electrical professional assess whether the 400-V connection can be implemented appropriately at the proposed site. Match the final order against your site plan and check the window position, exterior finish and technical equipment expressly in the order documents.

Plan daylight and privacy in balance

The toughened glazing and aluminium frames give Sana a light, modern appearance. Orient the sauna so users can still feel undisturbed inside.

A lit interior is easier to see into in the evening than in daylight. Check sightlines from the house, deck, garden path and neighbouring living areas both by day and with the interior lighting switched on.

Position privacy screening to protect from the relevant viewing direction without restricting the windows or door. This preserves the sauna view while keeping exterior surfaces accessible for care.

Making Sana comfortable for everyday use

The HUUM CORE is controlled via UKU Glass. Before first use, all users should familiarise themselves with the controls and required clearances around the heater. The supplied operating and safety instructions are authoritative.

Well-prepared access makes regular use more enjoyable. Place hooks, shelves and textiles so the circulation space in the cabin stays clear. Outside the sauna, a dry place for robes, towels and suitable footwear is practical.

Make a brief visual check before every use: bench surfaces and the passage must be clear, and no objects may be left around the heater. After switching off, check that no textiles or accessories remain in the cabin.

Solid CLT construction or a traditional barrel shape?

A barrel sauna is defined by its round form and curved wall surfaces, which shape both the interior and exterior appearance. Sana instead uses rectangular CLT panels and looks like a small, clean-lined garden building.

The straight walls allow a different arrangement of windows and benches than a round cabin. Integration beside a deck, pool or house façade also follows a distinctly different design principle.

Anyone seeking a rustic barrel look and the ritual of a wood-fired heater should choose another product family. Sana is for buyers who prefer clear lines, light thermo-aspen and electric heating.

Prepare the delivery route and installation area fully

Before ordering, inspect the full route from the possible unloading point to the foundation. Gates, walls, roof overhangs, steps, tight turns and soft lawns can complicate delivery or installation even when the final location has enough space.

Lifting and installation require more than the footprint itself to be clear. Depending on delivery and installation method, working space may also be needed to the sides and above. Confirm the specific requirements in advance, remove obstacles in time and protect sensitive paths or deck surfaces.

Also decide who will handle unloading, temporary storage and installation. Store components protected until installation and follow the supplied instructions. Clear responsibilities prevent heavy components being moved unexpectedly or stored unsuitably.

Check weather-exposed and low-level areas regularly

Regularly remove leaves, soil, splash marks and other deposits from the exterior. Pay particular attention to areas near the ground and places where plants or garden furniture restrict airflow. Fresh dirt can usually be removed more gently than firmly attached residue.

Keep accessible roof areas and drainage paths clear. After gardening, check whether soil, mulch or new paving has changed water flow. Later ground alterations must not direct rainwater towards the sauna base.

After a longer break in use, make a visual inspection of the interior, glass, door, lighting and accessible technical components before heating. Have any visible concerns addressed before using the sauna again.

Keep order, foundation and electrical records organised

Keep the order confirmation, configuration details, installation documents and operating instructions together. Photograph cable routes and important foundation details before they are covered. This helps future garden work account reliably for hidden installations.

Check the delivered version promptly against the order documents. Pay particular attention to window position, exterior finish and technical equipment. Clarify any uncertain discrepancy before installation, as corrections become considerably more involved afterwards.

Record the professionals involved and retain documents for the foundation and electrical work in an organised place. Operating manuals should be easy for users to reach; technical records belong in a dry, easy-to-find location.

Allow for future garden changes from the outset

If you plan a later pool, pergola or additional planting, include the space needed for these features in the first site plan. New elements must not narrow the entrance, direct water towards the base or block the chosen outlook.

During later paving or deck work, take care not to alter levels and falls around Sana unfavourably. The location of electrical cables and accessible connection points must remain known. Consult existing documentation before excavation nearby.

Treat Sana as a permanent part of the garden plan. Even when making later changes, keep the route, exterior surfaces and documented cable areas accessible.
