It seats up to four in the 180 cm model or up to six in the 240 cm, and it runs as a traditional steam sauna: a 6 kW heater, sauna stones, and water for loyly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glass back is the reason to choose this Prague over a solid barrel, and it is an honest tradeoff. A large tempered-glass wall is the best view in the category and the weakest point for holding heat, so cedar walls and a curved shell do the insulating work while the 8 mm tempered glass carries the look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it runs on a real stone heater, you ladle water for loyly, the soft burst of steam a dry infrared cabin cannot make, and the cedar fills with a clean, resinous warmth. Rounded barrel walls move the heat with no cold corners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet on a patio or at the tree line, it is a winter room worth walking out to: heat, then a cold plunge or a snow roll, then heat again.

Afterward the nervous system settles. Research suggests regular sauna use may support relaxation and post-exercise recovery, and heat sessions may support healthy circulation. We keep our claims there; the stronger, disease-related sauna research describes the long-term practice and does not belong on a product page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow hot does it get, and can I make real steam?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe heater reaches up to about 90°C (194°F). Because it is a traditional heater with stones, you can pour water for loyly, the burst of steam an infrared cabin cannot produce. Be realistic about cold climates: a large glass back is a thermal weak point, so in deep winter the Prague can take longer to heat and may sit below its top temperature. Preheat longer and keep the door closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho should be cautious about sauna use?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSauna heat is a real cardiovascular load, similar to moderate exercise. People with unstable heart conditions, uncontrolled blood pressure, or who are pregnant should get medical clearance first. Hydrate, start with shorter sessions, avoid alcohol, and step out if you feel lightheaded. Consult a professional if you are unsure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the electrical requirements?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 6 kW heater is hardwired, not plug-in: 220 to 240V, about 27 amps, on its own dedicated circuit sized by a licensed electrician, with outdoor-rated GFCI. Budget for that install; it is the cost buyers most often underestimate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat base does it need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA level, well-drained base rated for the weight (970 lb empty, more with water and people) and freeze-thaw: a compacted gravel pad or a load-rated deck, not bare grass. Leave clearance around the barrel for airflow and maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is it delivered, and how hard is assembly?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt ships by freight as a crate around 1,014 lb; expect curbside or liftgate delivery and plan help to move it. Inspect the crate before signing. The cedar kit is prefabricated and goes together in an afternoon with two people and basic tools. The structure is DIY; the electrical is the electrician's part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many people really fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 180 cm model is rated up to 4 and the 240 cm up to 6, on a single curved bench. Like most barrels, the honest comfortable number is often one or two fewer once everyone wants elbow room. For regular full-group sessions, size up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I care for cedar and glass outdoors, and in winter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCanadian red cedar is naturally weather-resistant, and the curved shingled roof sheds rain and snow. It is not maintenance-free: treat the exterior on a schedule, keep the base draining, and wipe condensation off the glass after steam sessions. Cared for, cedar lasts years outdoors; neglected, any barrel can gray, check, or leak.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blisspod","offers":[{"title":"180 x 180 x 180 cm | Upto 4 persons","offer_id":52794159071599,"sku":"US-bliss-SH1815R180","price":6999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"180 x 180 x 240 cm | Upto 6 persons","offer_id":52794159104367,"sku":"US-bliss-SH1815R240","price":7999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/0313\/9695\/files\/Untitleddesign_7_2048x2048_55f7352d-9c4d-4412-8f71-f81f856d454d.png?v=1774814751","url":"https:\/\/ellarahomewellness.com\/products\/blisspod-prague-canadian-red-cedar-outdoor-steam-barell-sauna-full-glass-back","provider":"Ellara Home Wellness","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
