Designed for Outdoor Wellness
An Expansive Six-Person Interior
With capacity for up to six people, the GDI-8526-04 creates a generous outdoor sauna environment for quiet individual time, shared sessions with a partner, or enjoying the warmth with family and friends.
Exterior dimensions are 73"W × 88"D × 97"H, while the interior measures 63"W × 78"D × 82"H. At an assembled weight of 1,600 lbs., this is a substantial outdoor sauna designed to become a dedicated part of your home wellness space.
Traditional Sauna Warmth
The 8.0 kW traditional stove features built-in controls and provides the higher-temperature experience associated with a traditional sauna.
The ideal traditional sauna temperature range is 170°F–185°F, with the sauna capable of reaching up to 190°F.
Full Spectrum Infrared Heating
For an infrared sauna experience, the GDI-8526-04 incorporates 15 Full Spectrum IR emitters: seven Carbon PureTech™ Near Zero EMF heating panels and eight Near Infrared heating elements.
This combination brings FAR and Near infrared technologies into the same hybrid sauna, providing an alternative heating experience to the traditional stove.
The ideal Full Spectrum infrared temperature range is 118°F–132°F, with the infrared system capable of heating up to 140°F.
Natural Red Cedar Meets a Bold Outdoor Finish
The GDI-8526-04 pairs a black all-weather exterior with an all-natural Canadian Red Cedar interior, creating a distinctive contrast between its contemporary outdoor appearance and warm, wood-forward interior.
A clear tempered glass door adds a clean visual element and helps maintain an open feeling within the substantial cabin, while the flat roof completes the sauna's modern profile.
Set the Atmosphere
An interior ceiling galaxy star color therapy lighting system creates a distinctive visual environment overhead, giving the spacious cabin a more immersive feel during evening or low-light sessions.
An accent light integrated into the interior backrest adds another layer of ambient illumination against the natural Canadian Red Cedar.
Enjoy the space while you:
- Settle into traditional sauna warmth
- Choose a Full Spectrum infrared session
- Enjoy quiet personal time outdoors
- Share the sauna space with family or friends
- Listen to your favorite music or podcast
- Create a dedicated outdoor wellness destination
Bluetooth Audio & Controls
An interior LED control panel with Bluetooth connectivity adds convenient modern functionality to the sauna environment.
Built-in performance speakers let you bring your preferred audio into the cabin, adding music, podcasts, or other listening options to your time in the sauna.
Traditional Sauna Accessories Included
The GDI-8526-04 includes a sandglass, bucket, and scoop, complementing the traditional sauna side of its hybrid design.
These classic sauna accessories add useful functionality while maintaining the traditional character of the Red Cedar interior.
Dedicated Electrical Setup
The GDI-8526-04 requires 240V/40 Amp electrical service for the stove and Full Spectrum infrared system.
Because this model requires dedicated higher-voltage electrical service, a certified electrician should be consulted to confirm the appropriate electrical requirements and installation for your property.
The GDI-8526-04 is designed for outdoor use.
