FAQs
Frequently asked question

Is the Carinthia sauna worth the investment for home use?

Absolutely. The Carinthia offers exceptional value by combining two sauna types in one unit — traditional Harvia stove and Full Spectrum infrared — so you never have to choose. Built from durable Canadian Hemlock and designed for outdoor use, it delivers spa-quality performance year-round. For wellness enthusiasts wanting versatility, longevity, and a premium backyard experience, it's a smart long-term investment.

What is the warranty and return policy for the Carinthia sauna?

The Golden Designs Carinthia comes backed by a manufacturer warranty covering craftsmanship and components. Specific warranty terms vary by part, so we recommend reviewing the warranty documentation included or contacting our support team before purchase. Returns are accepted within our standard return window for unused, unassembled units. Reach out to our customer service team to confirm current policy details before ordering.

What does 'hybrid' mean in the context of this sauna?

Hybrid means the Carinthia supports two heating methods in one unit. You can use the traditional Harvia wood or electric stove for classic high-heat sauna sessions, or switch to the PureTech Full Spectrum infrared system for gentler, deeper-penetrating heat therapy. This flexibility lets you customize your wellness routine based on your mood, health goals, or personal preference.

What is Full Spectrum infrared and how is it different from traditional sauna heat?

Full Spectrum infrared uses near, mid, and far infrared wavelengths to heat your body directly rather than just warming the air. Traditional saunas heat the surrounding air to high temperatures. Infrared operates at lower ambient temperatures while still producing a deep, therapeutic sweat. Many users find infrared sessions more comfortable and easier to tolerate, especially for longer or more frequent use.

How many people can comfortably fit in the Carinthia sauna?

The Carinthia is designed to comfortably accommodate 3 people. It's an ideal size for couples or small families who want to enjoy sauna sessions together without feeling cramped. The layout provides enough bench space for everyone to sit comfortably, making it a practical choice for regular shared use in a home outdoor setting.

Is the Canadian Hemlock wood suitable for outdoor use in different climates?

Yes. Canadian Hemlock is naturally moisture-resistant and dimensionally stable, making it well-suited for outdoor environments. It handles temperature fluctuations and humidity effectively, which is why it's a popular choice for outdoor saunas. To maximize longevity, applying a weather-resistant sealant periodically and placing the sauna on a level, sheltered surface is recommended regardless of your local climate.
