Understand hybrid

Two heating experiences. One Element.

Surround infrared

Infrared panels deliver direct radiant warmth around the seating area at gentler cabin temperatures. The 2–3 Person system is rated at 3.0 kW; the 4–6 Person system is 4.6 kW, with front panels on the fixed glass only and no panel on the central door.

Traditional stone heat

The Harvia Cilindro delivers a hotter, classic sauna experience, with bursts of humidity when water is poured over the heated stones.

Use one heating system at a time.

The details you live with

Cedar, glass and a softer glow.

FSC-certified Western Red Cedar and a tinted 8 mm tempered-glass front create a warm, open interior. Curved backrests support a relaxed seated position, while adjustable ambient lighting lets you set the mood for your session. Passive ventilation provides airflow through the cabin.

Structural bonding uses water-based PVA adhesive; ask for model-specific material and finish documents if you have sensitivities.

Choose a solid, level, load-bearing base with suitable drainage. Confirm the final drawing, door swing, ventilation and assembly clearances for your chosen size before preparing the site.

02ElectricalDedicated supply; licensed electrician.

Both sizes require a dedicated hardwired supply installed by a licensed electrician. Infrared power is 3.0 kW for the 2–3 Person and 4.6 kW for the 4–6 Person. Use one heating mode at a time.

The 4–6 Person requires a minimum 32A circuit breaker with RCD protection. Obtain the current electrician’s brief for your selected size to confirm the full circuit design, cable route and final connection. Electrical work is separate.

03AccessPlan the route from delivery to base.

Your final questions, answered.

Are adhesives used in the sauna?

Yes. Water-based PVA adhesive is used in structural timber bonding. Timber, adhesive, interior surfaces and exterior finishes should be considered separately when reviewing materials.

Ask for the material specifications and applicable adhesive-test documentation for your chosen model. A test of one material or component does not establish the emissions of a complete operating sauna.

Do larger Element models share these specifications?

No. Different sizes can have different dimensions, bench layouts and infrared power requirements. Photos of a smaller cabin are not a specification for a larger one.

If you are considering a larger Element, request its current drawing, seating layout, electrical brief and itemised quote before arranging site work.

How do payment, delivery and installation work?

Choose full payment or a 50% sauna deposit. The balance is settled when we ship; selected paid services are charged in full. Confirm the current lead time and delivery arrangements for your postcode before ordering.

Base Metro assembly is $995 within confirmed service areas. Delivery, electrical connection and finishing are separate. See optional additions and assembly, plan your installation or read the shipping policy.

A free setup consultation and handover are included to help you get familiar with your Element and its operation.

What does the warranty cover?

For residential outdoor use: cabin structure 5 years; infrared heaters 3 years; traditional heater and electrical components 2 years; stereo and labour 1 year. Conditions and maintenance requirements apply. Commercial coverage differs.

Read the full warranty and claim process.

Can I visit the showroom?

Visit NUVIE at 203 Rooks Road, Vermont, Victoria, by appointment. Book a showroom visit.

How should I care for an outdoor sauna?

Care depends on the model, exterior finish and exposure to sun, rain or coastal conditions. Ask for the instructions that match your finish before sanding, recoating or applying a treatment.

Do not assume an indoor sauna becomes suitable for outdoor use by adding a cover. Confirm the intended location and applicable warranty conditions for your model.

Still deciding?

Our sauna specialists can help with model selection, site planning and installation. Your Element also includes a free setup consultation and handover to help you get started.
