Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is a home sauna expensive?
A home sauna is an investment, but one that pays back in daily wellness. The Cold Creek starts at $46,990, and many customers use HSA or FSA funds to save 30–40% on the purchase.
Do saunas increase home value?
Yes. A well-built sauna is seen as a premium feature, especially in the Pacific Northwest. It adds both lifestyle appeal and resale value to your property.
Can you build your own sauna?
DIY saunas are possible with kits, but most lack the insulation, finishing, and longevity of a handcrafted model. The Cold Creek is built to professional standards for decades of reliable use.
What wood is best for a sauna?
Cedar is the top choice. It resists heat and moisture, ages beautifully, and gives off a natural aroma that enhances the experience. Every Cold Creek sauna is built with Pacific Northwest cedar.
What is the best temperature for a sauna?
Most people find comfort between 160–190°F. The HUUM heater in the Cold Creek allows you to fine-tune the heat, whether you prefer a gentle warmth or an intense sweat.
Do saunas need plumbing?
Not for the sauna itself. Plumbing only comes into play if you choose add-ons like a shower or cold tub connection, which are optional.
Are saunas worth it?
For many, the answer is yes!! Regular use supports relaxation, muscle recovery, and long-term health benefits. Having one at home means you can enjoy those rewards daily.
Are your saunas made in the USA?
Yes. Every sauna is handcrafted in Vancouver, WA. Using Pacific Northwest cedar and durable, sustainable materials, we build each model to handle the region’s climate while supporting local craftsmanship.
How long is the wait for a Cold Creek build?
We’re currently booking into early 2026. Each sauna is built to order, so scheduling early secures your place in the build queue.
Can I visit your warehouse before ordering?
Absolutely! Our Vancouver, WA warehouse has a Silver Star sauna model on display so you can step inside, see the craftsmanship, and talk through your options in person (the Cold Creek may be available if part of current builds but is not guaranteed).
