The Zurich swaps the rear wall for a bronze tinted acrylic panel, so you get natural light and a view of your backyard while you sit inside, without giving up privacy from the outside looking in. It's a 4 person traditional barrel sauna built from Pacific Premium Cedar, with the same round shape that heats faster on less wasted space than a square cabin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAssembles with 3 adults\u003c\/strong\u003e using a Phillips screwdriver, claw hammer, ladder, and a 17mm wrench, with the pre-shaped stave panel system.

The round barrel shape means heat rises and circulates evenly around the curved walls, so the cabin reaches temperature with less wasted space than a square room of the same capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Makes the Acrylic Rear Wall Different\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead of a solid wood rear wall, the Zurich uses a bronze tinted acrylic panel built into the same curved barrel shape. It lets in natural light and a view outward while keeping the bronze tint dark enough that people outside can't see in. The front wall keeps its solid wood construction and glass door.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStove Options\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Zurich ships with a 6.0kW stove with built in controls as standard. An 8kW stove is available as an optional upgrade if you want a faster heat up or you're in a colder climate. Ideal stove temperature runs 170 to 185°F, with the sauna able to reach up to 190°F.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Is a Barrel Sauna\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA barrel sauna is a cylindrical sauna room built from curved wood staves instead of flat panel walls, shaped like a barrel laid on its side. The round shape circulates heat more evenly than a square cabin and lets rain and snow run off the roof naturally instead of pooling, which is why barrel saunas are built specifically for outdoor placement rather than adapted from an indoor design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Results Can You Actually Expect\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany people use sauna sessions to relax, ease tense muscles, and unwind after a long day.
