Two kinds of heat. One room.
A traditional Finnish heater and infrared, built into the same sauna. Run them on their own, or together. You don't have to choose.
Talk to us about a hybridThe fierce heat of a Finnish sauna, the soft warmth of infrared.
For years you had to pick a side. A hybrid gives you both, in one hand-built room, off one control panel.
Every hybrid starts the same way as our traditional saunas: designed and prepared in our Auckland workshop, built on site, from Finnish materials we import ourselves. The infrared just gives you a second way to warm up.
Traditional, infrared — or both.
Traditional
The one you grew up with. Heat the stones, throw water and aromatics on them, and let the löyly do its work. Just heat, steam and timber, the way it's done back home.
Infrared
Radiators warm your body directly rather than heating the air. A gentler, lower-temperature session that's soothing for tired muscles and ready in minutes.
Both together
Run the heater and the infrared at the same time: the deep warmth of the radiators at your back, the löyly from the stones in front of you.
One room, two sources of heat.
The Finnish heater — fire, stones and real löyly
Traditional heat and the steam you throw yourself. Fit an evaporator and you get a steady rise of fragrant vapour on top.
The infrared panels — warmth that goes deep
Full-spectrum radiators, mounted horizontally or vertically, wherever the room wants them.
One control panel
A single hybrid control unit runs the heater, the infrared and the humidity together, so switching modes is one dial.
Safe by design.
Self-protecting radiators
Each radiator has its own overheating protection and switches off if it gets too hot.
IPX4 rated
Radiators and fittings rated for the splashes and humidity of a working sauna.
Full spectrum
Full-spectrum infrared, so you get the complete range of warmth, not a narrow slice of it.
Fitted your way
Panels mount horizontally or vertically to suit the room and your benches.
Hybrids we've built

Kiwifruit grower's hybrid
A kiwifruit farmer's sauna that runs traditional or infrared, built in spruce and abachi.

Fully loaded hybrid
A fully loaded hybrid sauna in Omaha, with every piece of modern sauna technology built in.
Like everything we make, every hybrid is custom: built by hand in Auckland, sized and shaped to your room. Homes or commercial spaces — no two ever come out the same.
