Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Where are the saunas made?

Every Thorsby is built in Southwestern Ontario by Branch Architectural Systems. Lunawood cladding is produced in Finland, all other wood is produced in Canada, and HUUM heaters are manufactured in Europe. All other materials come from local suppliers.

What site preparation is needed?

We recommend a level pad of stone or concrete where the sauna will sit. Depending on its distance from your nearest power source, a new power line may be needed, and that work must be done by a licensed electrical contractor. We’ll provide detailed site specifications after purchase.

How does delivery work?

Your local Arctic Spas team handles delivery from start to finish. They’ll reach out ahead of time to make sure your site is ready and answer any questions. Most deliveries require a crane, which our team will arrange.

Do I need a permit?

Usually not for the building itself. The Thorsby is designed to fall under the footprint at which most municipalities require a building permit, but always confirm your local requirements. The electrical connection does require an ESA permit, which your licensed electrical contractor will file.

What is the warranty?

Lunawood cladding carries a 20-year durability warranty, the metal roof a 30-year manufacturer warranty, and the HUUM heater a 5-year limited warranty.

How do I maintain my sauna?

Very little is required. Clean the interior occasionally with a damp cloth and mild soap, and never use harsh chemicals or anything scented. The exterior can be rinsed with a garden hose, much like your home; never use a pressure washer. Lunawood Arctic cladding is maintenance-free. The optional Thermal Ash exterior is a stained product and needs a fresh coat every 5–7 years to maintain its colour.

Is financing available?

Yes. Financing is available through Arctic Spas Ontario. Ask your local team about current options.

Where can I see one?

A display Thorsby is available to view now, and it’s coming to our Kitchener, London and Windsor showrooms in the months ahead. Book a viewing and our team will reach out to arrange a time at the nearest showroom.
