Thermo-aspen is modified using controlled heat and steam, improving the wood’s dimensional stability and reducing its tendency to absorb moisture. The process also deepens the wood’s tone without relying on chemical wood preservatives. Its smooth texture and low splintering tendency make it particularly suitable for benches, backrests, and other surfaces that come into contact with the body.
- Interior and exterior wood elements are factory-treated with sauna wax
- Wax helps reduce moisture penetration and surface marking
- The finish supports easier routine cleaning
- Only sauna-compatible maintenance products should be used
- Abrasive cleaners, household varnishes, and conventional furniture coatings should not be applied
- Clear tempered safety glass
- Glass Thickness: 8 mm
- Approximate Door Width: 24 inches
- Reversible installation for left- or right-hand opening
- Premium metal-and-wood handle
- Metal hinge assembly
- Glass front maintains visual connection with the surrounding room
Tempered glass must be handled carefully during assembly and must never be rested directly on concrete, tile, stone, or another hard surface.
The Baia Glass is designed for use with a traditional electric sauna heater and sauna stones. The base cabin does not include a heater unless one is specifically listed on the client’s approved estimate and invoice.
Auroom documentation lists different heater ranges according to market and configuration:
- Some manufacturer materials identify 3.5 or 4.5 kW heater options
- Other current product materials identify 4.5 or 6.0 kW options
- North American configurations commonly use an appropriately selected 6.0 kW heater because of the cabin’s glass area and local electrical standards
The final heater must be sized using the cabin volume, glass area, installation conditions, required safety clearances, and the heater manufacturer’s instructions.
- Sauna stones are determined by the selected heater
- Only stones approved for the installed heater should be used
- Stones must be washed, inspected, and arranged according to the heater manufacturer’s instructions
- Improperly packed stones can restrict airflow and reduce heater life
- Stones should be inspected and rearranged periodically
- Broken or heavily deteriorated stones should be replaced
- Designed for traditional high-temperature sauna bathing
- Expected operating temperature is determined by the installed heater and controls
- Typical traditional sauna temperatures may range from approximately 150°F to 195°F
- Heat-up time varies according to ambient temperature, ventilation, heater output, electrical supply, and door usage
- Water may be applied to properly heated sauna stones when permitted by the heater manufacturer
- The glass area must be considered when calculating effective heating capacity
Electrical requirements depend on the final heater, controller, and lighting package.
A typical North American installation may require:
- Dedicated 240-volt hardwired heater circuit
- Dedicated two-pole circuit breaker
- Copper conductors sized for the heater’s nameplate load
- Required heater control or power unit connections
- Separate lighting power supply when specified
- Installation by a qualified licensed electrician
- Compliance with local electrical codes and the heater manufacturer’s instructions
Breaker size, wire gauge, disconnect requirements, control wiring, and conductor temperature ratings must be confirmed from the final heater and controller documentation. Extension cords and plug adapters must not be used for the sauna heater.
The cabin itself does not include inherent Wi-Fi or app control. Available functionality depends entirely on the selected heater and controller.
Compatible packages may provide:
- Digital temperature control
- Adjustable session duration
- Delayed-start scheduling
- Wi-Fi connectivity
- Mobile application access
- Remote status monitoring
- Lighting control
- Safety notifications
Remote-start capability is subject to the selected equipment, required safety devices, local regulations, and manufacturer installation requirements.
- Integrated LED lighting positioned behind the backrest
- Indirect illumination designed to highlight the thermo-aspen interior
- Lighting control can vary by supplied package
- Manufacturer configurations may use an infrared sensor switch
- Other packages may include a dedicated remote or compatible controller
- Final switching and power-supply requirements must follow the supplied lighting package
Chromotherapy is not listed as a standard Baia Glass cabin feature. Colored or adjustable lighting should only be represented as included when specified on the approved invoice.
- Cabin designed with passive ventilation provisions
- Air inlet and exhaust placement must remain unobstructed
- The surrounding installation room must have adequate ventilation
- Vent placement must be coordinated with the selected heater
- Mechanical ventilation is not a standard cabin feature
- Any powered ventilation must be designed and installed separately
Proper ventilation supports even heating, comfortable air movement, wood drying, and depend
