Shipping & Delivery Information

Free Delivery Damage Insurance Included With Purchase

 Curbside Delivery ships via Freight to the 48 contiguous states. The freight carrier will contact you 24 to 48 hours prior to delivery to set a delivery day and time Monday-Friday, with a 4-hour open window.

      They won’t deliver without speaking to you first. **Shipping times are only approximate, and can change depending on environmental conditions, transit issues, and carrier’s availability. Last minute appointments can occur, and it’s out of our hands since the delivery process is managed by the carrier’s. The sauna will be delivered in 1 box or more, depending on the model. All boxes will be strapped to a pallet. All saunas are delivered in a 53-foot semi-truck with a single driver, who will unload the pallet to your curbside or driveway only. Any delivery questions or issues (remote areas, long driveways, large and low hanging trees, apartment complex, stairs, etc.) should be addressed with us prior to shipping your sauna.

        Once the driver has unloaded the sauna, we ask that you immediately inspect the boxes for any damage. Please indicate any minor scratches, indentations, or scuff marks to the outside of the boxes on the delivery receipt. You do not need to open the boxes to inspect the sauna. The freight company will deliver your sauna to a carport or first-floor entryway. Please check the box dimensions and ensure it will fit through your doorway. Assembly on these saunas are surprisingly easy and can take between 30-45 minutes, depending on the sauna. Assembly instructions are included with the saunas.

Warranty Information

SAUNA LIFE SAUNA LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY
Sauna Life extends this Limited Warranty solely to the original retail consumer purchaser of any Sauna Life sauna purchased from one of its authorized resellers.

LIMITED LIFETIME SAUNA WARRANTY
Sauna Life warrants that the Sauna Life sauna shall be free from defects in workmanship under normal conditions of use and service for the lifetime of the sauna for residential applications after delivery to the original retail purchaser. This warranty is limited to making good any factory assembled component which
in the judgment of Sauna Life is deemed defective in workmanship. The warranty does not cover normal material wear, natural weathering of the lumber, or installation or delivery of components and applies only to the original retail purchaser.
WARRANTY PERFORMANCE
For any warranty service, Sauna Life reserves the right to choose, at its option, repair of the problem or a replacement of the defective part. Sauna Life reserves the right to substitute a part or component of equivalent value, either new or factory reconditioned, and any such repair or replacement shall assume as its warranty only the remaining portion of the warranty on the original product. In the event Sauna Life chooses to repair any malfunction or defect covered by this warranty, a return authorization will be issued, and the component will be returned prepaid freight to Sauna Life for repair of the defect. Sauna Life will then ship the component back the original retail purchaser upon completion of the repair. Prior to any return, contact Sauna Life at: Sauna Life, 511 Glenn Avenue, Wheeling, Illinois 60090, telephone number: (800) 957-2862, for packaging and shipping instructions and a return authorization number. In addition, Sauna Life will require photographs of any defect and reserves the right to inspect or designate an agent to inspect any part that is claimed to be defective and covered by this warranty. Labor charges and related
expenses for removal, installation, or replacement of the sauna or its components are not covered under this warranty. Normal wear and tear, cosmetic issues or changes to individual pieces of lumber due to natural aging and weathering are not covered. Sauna heaters and added components are not covered by this warranty.

ACTS INVALIDATING WARRANTY
This warranty is void if the Sauna Life sauna has been subject to alteration, misuse or abuse, commercial use, or if any repairs on the sauna are attempted by anyone other than an authorized representative of Sauna Life. Alteration shall include, but is not limited to, deviation from the original assembly instructions, component change, or the addition of any non-approved device or heating system, which contributes to a component or unit failure, or unsafe operating system. Use of the sauna in an application for which it is not designed will void this warranty. This includes, but is not limited to, damage caused by operation above safe sauna operating temperatures, damage caused by added components, damage to the sauna’s surface caused by harsh chemicals, damage caused by movement of the product, and damage caused by acts of God.

DISCLAIMERS
Except as expressly provided above, Sauna Life makes no other representation or warranty, express or implied, either in fact or operation of law, statute, or otherwise, and Sauna Life specifically disclaims any and all implied or statutory warranties, including warranties or merchantability and of fitness for a particular
purpose. Sauna Life shall not be liable for loss of use of the Sauna Life sauna or other incidental or consequential costs, expenses, or damage, which may include but are not limited to, the removal of or reinstallation of a wall, deck or other fixture, water leakage, costs of shipping or packaging, applicable taxes, or the payment of any costs or expenses of disassembly, removal, or reinstallation of the product or any part. Your rights may vary from state to state. Under no circumstances shall Sauna Life or its representatives be held liable for injury to any person or damage to any property, however arising, even if caused by the Sauna Life Sauna or its representatives’ negligence. No distributor, salesperson, dealer, retailer, or other representative of Sauna Life has the authority to alter or change these warranties either orally or in writing.

Outdoor Traditional Sauna

SaunaLife GL4 4-Person Outdoor Traditional Sauna

The upper bench is 23.6 inches deep and the lower one 12.5. Black framing caps the corners, the roof edge and the sill, and the deck boards carry through under the glass to the outside face. Shipping weight is 1,830 lbs and the crate measures 83 by 43 by 32 inches.

The Build

The Four Numbers SaunaLife Publishes

The GL4 specification is short and it is dimensional. Board thickness, glass, bench geometry and freight — those four entries are what you can plan against before the crate arrives.

🪵
Wall Boards At 1.57 Inches
SaunaLife gives one figure for the wall build: boards 1.57 inches thick. They run horizontally through the cabin, carrying on across the ceiling in the interior views.
1.57" Boards
🚪
Tempered Bronze Glazing
The glass style is listed as tempered bronze. It fills the front wall as a hinged door beside a fixed panel, both set in black framing that runs to the corner posts.
Door 27.6" × 74.8"
🪑
Two Benches, One Width
Upper and lower benches are both 54 inches wide. The depths differ: 23.6 inches up top for sitting or lying back, 12.5 inches below for feet and for stepping up.

A Closer Look At The GL4

The Glass Front

Bronze Glass Across The Whole Elevation

Head-on, the front of the GL4 is glass from the sill to the roof cap: a hinged door on a long vertical pull, beside a fixed panel of the same height. SaunaLife lists the glass style as tempered bronze, and the door opening at 27.6 by 74.8 inches. Black framing outlines both panels and turns the corner into the cladding on either side.

  • Door 27.6"W × 74.8"H
  • Glass style: tempered bronze
  • Hinged door beside a fixed glass panel
  • Wall boards 1.57" thick

Bench Layout

Fifty-Four Inches Wide, On Two Levels

With the glass taken away the seating reads plainly. Both benches span 54 inches. The upper one is 23.6 inches deep, enough to sit back into; the lower one is 12.5 inches and doubles as the step. Wall boards run horizontally behind them and the floor is a slatted deck. The heater shown in this render is bought separately.

  • Rated for four bathers
  • Slatted floor, horizontal wall boards

What The Front Wall Buys You

This is the view from the seat with the door swung open — lawn, fence and house, framed by the glass. The 1.57-inch boards run up the side wall and continue overhead across the ceiling, and the slatted deck carries through the doorway. The wall-mounted heater at the right of frame is a separate purchase.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Four bathers. Seating is on two levels. The upper bench measures 54" W × 23.6" D and the lower bench 54" W × 12.5" D.
No — the heater is sold separately. Heater packages are offered on this page above the Add to Cart button, and each one states the room volume in ft³ it is rated for, so match that range to the GL4 cabin when you choose. Heaters appear in several of the product images on this page; those are shown for context and are bought on their own. For the full list of what arrives with the cabin, see the What's Included tab on this page.
SaunaLife lists the glass style as tempered bronze. It fills the front wall of the cabin as an opening door with a fixed panel alongside it. The door opening is 27.6" W × 74.8" H.
Wall boards are specified at 1.57 inches. That is the one wall figure SaunaLife publishes for this model; the Specifications tab on this page carries the complete sheet.
Shipping dimensions are 83" W × 43" D × 32" H at a weight of 1,830 lbs. SaunaLife's dimension note for the GL4 reads "79" Diameter & 85" Width". Check the Dimensions tab on this page for the manufacturer's drawing before you pour or lay a pad, and measure the delivery route against the crate.
In the tabs on this page. Specifications holds the manufacturer's figures, Dimensions holds the drawing, What's Included holds the packing detail, and Product Manuals holds the documentation. Anything you cannot find there, ask us and we will get it from SaunaLife.
Free curbside delivery via freight to the 48 contiguous states, with free delivery damage insurance included. The freight carrier contacts you 24 to 48 hours ahead to set a day and time Monday through Friday inside a 4-hour window, and will not deliver without speaking to you first. The sauna arrives strapped to a pallet on a 53-foot semi-truck with a single driver, who unloads to your curbside or driveway only. Raise anything unusual about your access — long driveway, low branches, stairs, apartment complex — with us before the sauna ships. When the driver unloads, inspect the boxes and note any scratches, dents, or scuff marks on the delivery receipt. You do not need to open the boxes to do that.
SaunaLife specifies 240V for the sauna heater and 120V for the interior and exterior lights. Since the heater is bought separately, confirm the exact circuit rating against the heater package you select. Recovery For Athletes recommends having the heater circuit run by a licensed electrician.
SaunaLife covers the sauna with a Limited Lifetime Warranty against defects in workmanship under normal conditions of use and service, for the lifetime of the sauna in residential applications. It extends to the original retail purchaser buying from an authorized reseller, and Recovery For Athletes is an authorized SaunaLife dealer. The warranty covers factory-assembled components SaunaLife judges defective in workmanship. It does not cover normal material wear, natural weathering of the lumber, or installation and delivery of components. Full terms are in the Warranty tab.
