The problem

The real sauna experience rarely fits inside.

Traditional high-heat bathing wants ventilation, space, and steam over hot stone. Most homes can't dedicate an interior room to it, and public saunas put the ritual on someone else's schedule.

The FORMA approach

A weather-engineered hot room in your landscape.

The Nordland delivers authentic 150–195°F bathing where you have space for it — a thermally modified shell, shingle roofing, and a stone heater matched to the site.

FAQ

Common questions.

Can the Nordland stay outside year-round?
Yes. It is outdoor-engineered: thermally modified spruce and a shingle roof are rated for rain, snow, and temperature swings. Routine care expectations are provided with the unit.
What foundation do I need?
A level, load-bearing pad — compacted gravel, pavers, or a concrete slab. Exact footprint and weight are confirmed before delivery so the site can be prepared.
What does the heater need?
A dedicated 220–240V hardwired circuit installed by a licensed electrician. Exact amperage is confirmed per configuration before the electrical work is scheduled.
Do I need a permit?
Requirements vary by municipality. We flag common considerations for your ZIP during the quote and recommend confirming with your local authority.
Can it be installed indoors?
The Nordland is designed as an exterior unit. For interior placement, the Solis and Obsidian are the indoor-rated formats.
How does delivery work?
Palletized insured freight with a scheduled appointment. Kit models are ground-accessible; site access is verified for your address before any order is placed.
What warranty is included?
A full manufacturer warranty, with terms provided in writing before purchase.
Health note. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Consult a medical professional before using heat therapy if you have health concerns.

Freight & delivery

Delivery questions.

How is heavy equipment delivered?
Oversized items ship via freight carrier. Standard delivery is curbside; threshold and room-of-choice (white-glove) options are available for many ZIP codes. We confirm the method available to your address before fulfillment.
Will I need to schedule a delivery appointment?
Yes. For freight items the carrier contacts you to schedule a delivery window so someone can receive the equipment. We coordinate this with you after your order is confirmed.
What is liftgate service and do I need it?
A liftgate lowers heavy items from the truck to the ground when there's no loading dock. Most residential deliveries need it. We confirm whether it's required for your address during the availability check.
What should I do at delivery?
Inspect the packaging and item before signing. Note any visible damage on the delivery receipt and take photos, then contact us within 48 hours so we can resolve it quickly under warranty.
Why do you check my ZIP code first?
Freight availability, accessorial services, and cost vary by location. Verifying your ZIP up front lets us give you accurate delivery expectations instead of a generic promise.
