The SaunaLife Ergo-Series Model E8GB Traditional Outdoor Barrel Sauna is designed and precision-crafted in Northern Europe, where sauna bathing is a daily ritual. Its spacious barrel design, full-glass front, ergonomic Thermo-Aspen seating, and contemporary black exterior finish create a comfortable outdoor sauna experience for group relaxation.

The E8GB includes PROSAUNAS SaunaShield Black Sauna Paint for on-site application, creating a contemporary black exterior finish while helping protect the outdoor wood surface.

Ergonomic Design for Group Relaxation
Enjoy generous space with the Model E8GB’s 6’5” interior height and curved Thermo-Aspen benches designed for comfortable sauna bathing. Its wide barrel diameter and arched lumbar-support backrests provide a spacious and supportive seating environment.

Full-Glass Front Wall
The Model E8GB features bronzed, full-height tempered-glass sidelight windows that, together with the matching tempered-glass door, create a full-glass front wall. Natural light opens up the interior while providing expansive views of the outdoors.

Built for Outdoor Use
Made from ultra-thick 1.65” Thermo-Spruce staves, the Model E8GB is designed for outdoor durability and thermal performance. Interior benches are crafted from 1.1” thick Thermo-Aspen for a smooth, comfortable seating surface.

SaunaShield Black Exterior Finish
PROSAUNAS SaunaShield Black Sauna Paint is included for on-site application, creating a contemporary black exterior finish while helping protect the sauna’s outdoor wood surface.

Smart Drainage & Water Management
Heavy-duty stainless steel barrel bands secure the structure, while a black shingle roof kit and roof drip edge help manage outdoor weather exposure. Dual floor drains provide drainage near the heater and door areas.

Premium Lighting Options
Dotless, app-controlled white LED lighting (IP67-rated) creates a relaxing glow. Optional E Sconce+ and E MOOD packages offer additional lighting options.

Naturally Refined Interior
The interior features smooth, knot-free Thermo-Aspen benches and backrests. A bottle of paraffin oil is included to help protect the finish and bring out the natural warmth of the wood.

Note: To operate this sauna, a compatible heater is required and is sold separately. Electrical installation must be performed by a licensed electrician.

Delivery

Due to the size and weight of this handcrafted sauna, delivery is scheduled by appointment and arrives securely packaged on a wooden pallet. Freight carriers provide curbside delivery only, lowering the shipment to ground level but not bringing it indoors. Before your order ships, our team may contact you to confirm delivery details and review any special site conditions (such as remote locations or restricted truck access). In rare cases where non-standard deliveries are required, additional freight charges from the carrier may apply. We will always notify you in advance if any special arrangements are needed.

Shipment Options

1. Standard Freight (LTL - Less Than Truckload)
Commonly used for compact and mid-sized saunas, allowing for secure shipping without needing a full truck.

2. Flatbed Truck Delivery
For larger sauna cabins that require more space and weight capacity. Flatbed trucks are used for these oversized deliveries.

How Your Sauna is Packaged

Your sauna kit will arrive securely packed on one or two pallets, depending on the model. We take great care to ensure it's protected during transit.

Setting Up Your Delivery Appointment

To make things easy, delivery is never a surprise. Once your shipment reaches the nearest freight terminal, the carrier will contact you directly to schedule a delivery time that works best for you. You’ll always know when to expect your sauna—no unannounced drop-offs.
