Golden Designs "Arosa" 4 Person Barrel Traditional Sauna - Pacific Cedar

The Golden Designs "Arosa" 4-Person Barrel Sauna is the larger sibling to the St. Moritz, offering a social "Traditional Finnish" experience with enough room for a small group or a very spacious solo session.

By utilizing the iconic barrel shape, the Arosa maximizes heat efficiency in an outdoor setting, ensuring that the high-intensity heat from the stove is distributed evenly throughout the cabin.

## 🌀 The Arosa Advantage: 4-Person Capacity

Moving from a 2-person to a 4-person barrel provides a significant upgrade in comfort:

• Social Wellness: Two benches allow four adults to sit comfortably facing each other, or two adults to lounge with their legs up.
• Efficient Airflow: The cylindrical design eliminates "cold corners." As the 6.0 kW (or 8.0 kW) stove heats up, the air follows the curve of the Pacific Premium Cedar walls, creating a constant convective loop.
• Natural Runoff: The barrel shape is inherently weather-resistant, as rain and snow naturally shed off the sides, protecting the wood structure over time.

## 🌡️ Heating Performance

The Arosa is a "High Heat" specialist, designed for those who want to reach deep-sweat temperatures of 170°F to 190°F.

Note: Because the Arosa has more internal air volume than the 2-person model, the 8.0 kW upgrade is highly recommended if you live in a region with freezing winters to ensure the sauna reaches peak temperature quickly.

## ⚡ Electrical Requirements

This unit requires a dedicated electrical setup. You must have a certified electrician install the following:

1. Main Heater: 240V / 30AMP (for the 6.0 kW) OR 240V / 40AMP (for the 8.0 kW).
2. Electronics: 120V / 15AMP for the LED accent lighting and control panel.

## ✨ Premium Features & Materials

• Pacific Premium Cedar: This wood is chosen for its natural resistance to insects, decay, and moisture, as well as its incredible aromatic properties.
• Privacy Glass: The Bronze Privacy Tempered Glass door adds a layer of seclusion while maintaining a high-end, modern look.
• Atmosphere: Includes an interior backrest with accent lighting and a digital control panel to manage your lighting environment.
• The "Starter Kit": You’ll receive the traditional sandglass, wooden bucket, and scoop so you can begin using the sauna immediately after assembly.

## 🏗️ Installation Checklist

• Curbside Delivery: The Arosa arrives on a large pallet. It is shipped as a kit of precision-cut cedar staves and stainless steel bands.
• Foundational Support: The "cradles" that support the barrel must sit on a level, solid surface (concrete, heavy-duty pavers, or a reinforced deck).
• The Build: Assembly involves "stacking" the staves around the circular end walls and tightening the bands. It is a manageable DIY project but usually requires two people.
