Product Description
CLASSIC TWO-PERSON BARREL SAUNA
The Eddy Barrel Sauna is a compact 2-person barrel sauna built from western red cedar and designed to bring traditional sauna use into a home setting. Its rounded barrel profile promotes efficient heat circulation while maintaining a smaller footprint than many full-size cabin saunas, making it a practical option for patios, backyards, and dedicated indoor wellness spaces. The natural cedar construction also offers long-term durability with minimal maintenance.
TRADITIONAL CEDAR CONSTRUCTION
Made in Ohio through Finn American and Amish craftsmanship, the Eddy combines traditional sauna materials with a straightforward, purpose-built design. The western red cedar body is naturally suited for sauna environments and helps create the classic look and feel many buyers want from a traditional dry or wet sauna. The barrel format is not just aesthetic—it helps reduce unused air space, supporting faster, more efficient heating.

COMFORTABLE 2-PERSON FOOTPRINT
Sized for up to two people, the Eddy is designed to balance compact dimensions with usable interior seating. The sauna measures 72” in diameter, 48” deep, and 76” tall including the cradles, giving it a manageable footprint without sacrificing everyday usability. This makes it a strong fit for customers looking for a backyard sauna or indoor sauna that does not require the space of a larger multi-person model.
PREMIUM HEATER OPTIONS WITH WIFI CONTROL
The Eddy Barrel Sauna is available with either a 4.5KW HUUM heater or a 5KW Slim Homecraft heater, providing two premium electric sauna heater options depending on your preference. SISU lists the sauna as capable of operating from 110°F to 230°F, with heat-up times varying based on weather and target temperature. The heater system includes WiFi-enabled control through a UKU remote, allowing you to start, stop, and schedule sauna sessions remotely.
INDOOR OR OUTDOOR INSTALLATION
The Eddy can be installed indoors without a roof kit or outdoors with a roof kit, offering flexibility based on the buyer’s space. Assembly is designed to be manageable for two people, with SISU estimating a build time of roughly 2 to 3 hours. A licensed electrician is required to pre-wire and complete the electrical hookup, so buyers should plan for professional electrical installation as part of the setup process.
NOTES ON ELECTRICAL CONNECTION:
SISU’s heating options are run on a dedicated 240v hardwired line. They recommend contracting an electrician to run the electrical. Estimated costs depending on location: $500-$1,500.

Health & Safety
Health & Safety Notes:
- SISU recommends starting with shorter, warm sessions. Limit your sauna sessions to 10 minutes at first. As you improve your tolerance, increase the temps by turning up the dial and add steam by pouring water over the rocks.
- Pair your sauna sessions with the Ice Barrel. Adding periods of cooling after being in the sauna presents health benefits. Benefits of cold water immersion start when you begin to sweat!
- Consult with your doctor. Stop if you begin to feel lightheaded, nauseated, weak, or experience other symptoms. If you have pre-existing medical conditions and are unsure if sauna therapy is right for you, please consult your physician.
