First, refer to our size chart
Next, read about your heater options and discover which would fit your needs.
Our Woodstove-
proudly crafted at Amara Saunas, this heater offers a unique sauna experience. It's compatible with all saunas, except the 5ft barrels. Emitting penetrating heat, a crackling fire, and a nostalgic campfire aroma, it evokes an old-world charm and a truly authentic sauna experience. Woodstoves require a little extra effort compared to other heating methods because of their hands-on appeal, requiring the building of a fire before use and cleaning out ash, but they do not require an electrical connection like electric heaters do.
Harvia-
These are convenient and fast, the only control being a dial. Harvia's have coils that gradually warm up over 30-45 minutes, achieving temperatures between 150-200 degrees Fahrenheit. These heaters can create both dry heat saunas and wet heat saunas, depending on whether water is poured over the heater's rocks. Additionally, Harvia stoves offer the option to upgrade to a Wi-Fi-enabled model, allowing users to sync controls with their smartphones for remote access to sauna settings. No matter what version you chose, Harvia stoves present a modern solution for managing sauna temperatures, ensuring a truly relaxing and rejuvenating experience.
Huum Heater-
The Huum is also electric. It encompasses all the features of a Harvia heater, with a few differences depending on your sauna preferences. What sets it apart is its capacity to finely control humidity levels, facilitated by the bigger supply of rocks through-out its whole body. This unique capability transforms Huum sauna's into more of a full-blown steam room, catering to those seeking a more humid environment for a longer duration. a Huum's open design also allows the heat to fully extract from the full face, top, and bottom of the heater, resulting in a more evenly distributed heat throughout the barrel. Huum heaters also have the option to upgrade to wifi as well.

Is it ok if my Amara Sauna leaks?
It is normal for your sauna to exhibit minor leaks. The use of natural materials means that the sauna can expand and contract in response to the temperature and humidity changes. If this worries you, the sauna cover is a perfect solution.
