Golden Designs Carinthia 3-Person Outdoor Hybrid Sauna, Infrared + Traditional Steam
Authorized Dealer
Full manufacturer warranty
The Carinthia is a true two-in-one outdoor cabin: an 8kW Harvia stove for high-heat steam sits alongside 8 infrared emitters, so a single footprint gives you both a gentle daily warm-up and the full loyly ritual. It is built from Natural Reforested Canadian Hemlock with a waterproof exterior stain, seats 3 to 4 people, and comes wired for FM and Bluetooth audio through built-in performance speakers.
Flat roof or peaked roof
Both roof styles cover the same hybrid cabin, the same 8kW Harvia stove, and the same infrared array. The flat roof keeps a low, modern profile over a compact 66 inch wide by 60 inch deep footprint. The peaked roof adds a pitched, gabled top that sheds rain and snow and stands taller for a more traditional look. Choose the line that suits your yard.
Why own both heat modes
Most saunas ask you to pick a lane. This one does not. Fire up the infrared for a comfortable, lower-temperature session you can enjoy any evening, or heat the Harvia stove and ladle water over the stones to push the cabin toward the high end of its 118 to 190 degree F range. Two Carbon PureTech Near-Zero EMF panels and 6 near-infrared elements handle the gentle side; the 8kW stove handles the classic steam. You are not choosing between infrared and traditional. You own both in a single cabin.
What a daily session looks like
- Weeknights: run the infrared for an easy, comfortable warm-up after a long day.
- Weekends: heat the Harvia stove, pour water for real loyly steam, and settle in with the interior backrest and accent lighting.
- With company: seat 3 to 4, cue music over Bluetooth, and set the mood with the interior chromotherapy lighting.
Built for real life
- Best for: A couple or small group who want daily infrared comfort and authentic weekend steam in one outdoor cabin.
- Included features: Bronze privacy tempered glass door, interior chromotherapy lighting, interior backrest with accent lighting, LED control panel with FM and Bluetooth, and built-in performance speakers.
Where it sits in the line: If you want pure high-heat steam without the infrared side, the Golden Designs Arlberg 3-Person Outdoor Traditional Steam Sauna shares this same outdoor footprint as a traditional-only step-down.

Common questions about this sauna
Will this sauna fit through my doorway and into my room?
It does not arrive as one finished cabin. It ships flat and assembles on site, so what has to clear your doorways and stairs are the individual panels, not the full assembled cabin. Set up, it stands 66 by 60 by 87 inches (width by depth by height).
Measure your narrowest doorway, hallway turn, and stairwell, then use our Will It Fit tool to place it in your room to the inch. If an entry looks tight, send us the measurements and we will confirm the fit before you order.
What outlet or wiring does it need?
It needs 240V / 40A dedicated circuit (stove and full-spectrum).
Because it runs on 240V, have a licensed electrician put in the dedicated circuit before your delivery date. That is standard for a stove heated sauna and is the only trade work involved.
Is assembly difficult, and how long does it take?
2 people, 4 to 6 hours. Tongue-and-groove panel assembly; licensed electrician required for stove hookup.
The sections arrive pre built and ready to join, so you are connecting finished panels rather than building from raw lumber. No specialist trade is needed beyond any electrical hookup noted above.
Is this a low EMF sauna?
Yes. Golden Designs rates this cabin as Near-Zero EMF.
EMF is the low frequency field that surrounds any electric heater. This model uses carbon panels that spread warmth across a wide surface instead of concentrating it, which is how it holds a Near-Zero EMF rating.
Can it go outside?
This model is built for indoor use. Its construction is not rated for open weather exposure, so plan for a garage, basement, spare room, or a fully covered porch rather than an open yard.
If you want a sauna for an uncovered outdoor spot, ask us about our outdoor rated cabins.
How is it delivered, and how long does it take?
It ships free by curbside freight. Free curbside freight delivery to your driveway. Typical lead time 10 to 20 business days. AK, HI, and Canada quoted separately.
Your carrier calls ahead to schedule a drop off window and leaves it at the end of your driveway, so plan to have a hand available to move it inside.
Are you an authorized dealer, and what warranty comes with it?
Yes. PureHeat is an authorized Golden Designs dealer, so this is a genuine unit that carries its full Golden Designs factory warranty (5 years on electronics and heating, 1 year on the traditional stove), honored directly by the manufacturer. Register it within 60 days of delivery at the manufacturer registration form to activate coverage.
That matters on a purchase this size. Units from unauthorized gray market sellers often arrive with the factory warranty voided, which can leave you without support if a part ever fails.
