We went with the wood-burning heater, and it’s like having a little spa retreat at home. Best wellness purchase we’ve made.

The dual-level benches are a game changer. It’s amazing how much space you have – highly recommend the glass front upgrade!

We chose the LED lighting system and it really sets the mood. It’s my go-to for unwinding after work.

Warranty

All Balance Recovery saunas are backed by a comprehensive 2-year manufacturer warranty covering structural integrity and craftsmanship. This warranty applies whether you opt for self-assembly or professional installation, provided installation guidelines are followed. Electrical components, including heaters, are covered by individual manufacturer warranties, which may vary in duration depending on the model. Applying the recommended breathable wood oil immediately upon installation is essential to validate your warranty.

How It Works

1. Place Your Order
Choose your Camilla XL (5-6 Person) and any optional upgrades (heater model, glass door/front wall, LED lighting, accessories such as bucket & ladle, head‑rests). Complete your order through our website, providing your delivery address. You will receive a confirmation email immediately with your order details, estimated delivery timeframe, and any next steps.

Since this is a made-to-order product and a large one, please send us a detailed video of your home and the surrounding space where you would like the sauna to be delivered and placed. This allows us to confirm that the delivery truck and unloading equipment can safely access your property. We also ensure the sauna is placed in the correct location at delivery (kerbside) if you decide to hire our team to unload and place your product for you.

2. Order Processing & Manufacturing
Once your order is confirmed, we schedule production of your sauna. The Camilla Traditional is handcrafted from premium Thermowood, chosen for its exceptional durability, visual appeal, and superior thermal performance. The sauna shell, benches, and other components are manufactured, inspected, and packed for dispatch.

3. Delivery Organisation
When your unit is ready, we arrange for the delivery of the flat-pack components on a pallet to your address (kerbside). You will be notified of a delivery date and time, as well as any logistical requirements (e.g., an accessible driveway and unloading space).
We deliver your product straight from the manufacturer to your doorstep to minimise carbon emissions and avoid double shipping; therefore, unloading is not included in the delivery price. If you would like our team to assist with unloading, this service is available for an additional fee.

4. Pre‑Installation Preparation
Before delivery, you should prepare the site:
Ensure the base is entirely level and strong enough to support the sauna’s weight (approx. 600 kg when empty) plus the occupants.

Clear the access route and delivery area so the pallet can be brought in and components unloaded without obstruction.

Electrical preparation is your responsibility, and the preparation requirements may vary depending on the layout of your property. Arrange a qualified electrician ahead of time. The heater for this sauna typically ranges — for example, the standard 6 kW unit is recommended for this 5.5 m³ volume. It may require a dedicated supply (single‑ or three‑phase), correct cable sizing, and an isolator. We also recommend, but it is not mandatory, that the electrician you appoint be present for the entirety of the last day, especially if you have add-ons such as LED lights or a thermostat.

We have a dedicated section for each product, called “Electrical Supply”, which can clarify any questions you may have.

Review the assembly manual in advance (provided with your order) and ensure you have any required tools and manpower lined up if you are self-assembling the sauna yourself.

5. Delivery & Unloading
On the scheduled delivery day, the pallet containing your sauna components will arrive. You will need to unload the pallet (either manually or via a pump truck/trolley, if available) and move the components to your designated base area. Once unpacked, check that all parts are present and undamaged. Report any missing or faulty components within 24 hours of delivery to preserve your warranty eligibility.

6. Installation / Assembly
Professional Installation: If you opt for our installation service, our team of carpenters will assemble the barrel sauna in one full day (for a stated cost starting at approximately £1,000 + VAT, depending on location).

Self‑assembly (flat‑pack): Follow the detailed instruction manual to assemble the sauna. If you’re handy, this task could take a few days; our team estimates that one week is typical, unless you have prior carpentry experience.
Use a correctly rated isolator switch.;

Ensure wiring and cable size comply with UK electrical regulations (such as BS 7671);

The heater draw for a 6 kW unit at 230 V single-phase is approximately 26 amps; cable sizing and supply type can vary depending on the run length and phase.

Provide your electrician with the heater manufacturer’s manual in advance so they understand the wiring instructions and safe connection requirements.

7. Finishing Touches & Safety Check
Once the sauna is assembled:
Immediately apply a breathable oil‑based finish to the interior and exterior wooden surfaces. This is mandatory for validating your warranty.

Check that the structure is level, doors and windows operate smoothly, and ventilation is installed as specified.

After your electrician has completed the wiring, perform a first warm‑up test — the sauna should reach its target temperature efficiently (e.g., ~80 °C).

Ensure that all electrical work is complete, safe, and that any required certifications or inspections are obtained.

8. Enjoy Your Sauna & Support
Now you’re ready to relax! Step into your Camilla sauna and enjoy the L-shaped bench layout, glass door feature, optional LED lighting, and the crafted Thermowood interior.

Please remember:
If you self‑assembled, your warranty is 1 year; this is a manufacturer's warranty on parts only.

Improper or uncertified electrical installations may void the warranty; therefore, all electrical work must be carried out by a qualified electrician.

If any components are missing upon delivery, you must report them within 24 hours. For any assistance or replacement parts, our support team is ready to help.
Please review the Returns and Refunds Policy to understand how it applies to made-to-order products.

Unloading and Positioning

While delivery to your doorstep is complimentary, the costs associated with unloading and crane positioning are not included. For flat-pack deliveries, we recommend using a forklift for unloading. However, this can also be done manually, which involves unpacking the sauna on the truck and removing it piece by piece.

Fully Assembled Deliveries

For fully assembled deliveries, either a forklift or a crane will be required, depending on the access to your chosen location. If the access is sufficiently wide, hiring a forklift is generally more cost-effective. In cases where a crane is necessary, the typical cost ranges from £150 to £200.

Alternatively, we can arrange the unloading and positioning for you for an additional fee. Please contact us if you would like to opt for this service.

The electrical supply required will depend on the kW rating of your chosen sauna heater. We strongly recommend consulting with a qualified electrician before any installation.

Typically, a dedicated supply is required—similar to those used for electric showers or cookers. Most domestic sauna heaters in the UK are connected to a single-phase 230V supply, and the Amps can be calculated using:

Watts ÷ Volts = Amps

For example: a 6kW (6000W) heater ÷ 230V = approximately 26 Amps

Below is a general guide for domestic sauna heaters:

Heater Power - Current Draw - Suggested Cable Size (Single-Phase)

2.3 kW - 10 Amps - 1.5 mm²
3.0 kW - 13 Amps - 2.5 mm²
3.6 kW - 15 Amps - 2.5 mm²
4.5 kW - 19 Amps - 2.5–4.0 mm²
6.0 kW - 26 Amps - 4.0 mm²
8.0 kW - 35 Amps - 6.0 mm²
9.0 kW - 40 Amps - 6.0 mm² (or higher, depending on cable run)

Cable size depends on cable length, installation method, and other on-site factors. Always defer to your electrician’s judgment.

We strongly advise that installation be carried out by a fully qualified electrician, ensuring all work complies with current Government regulations and wiring standards (e.g., BS 7671 in the UK).

Recommended heaters for the Camilla XL:

Harvia Vega BC60 (6kW): Entry-level, suitable for budget-friendly options but slower heating.

Harvia SW80 (8kW): Efficient, requires 3-phase input, ideal for faster heating.

Harvia Cilindro90 (9kW): Quick heat-up for larger saunas, best for frequent use.

Harvia Spirit SP90XW (9kW, Wi-Fi): Remote controlled, high performance and luxury feel.

Harvia M3 (Wood-burning): Traditional experience, excellent heat feel, chimney required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ordering your Camilla XL Traditional Outdoor Sauna is simple and secure through the Balance Recovery website. Once you select your desired heater, accessories, and any upgrades, proceed to checkout and provide your delivery details. After purchase, you’ll receive an email confirmation outlining your order, delivery estimates, and the next steps — including a request for a video of your delivery location to help us coordinate access and unloading.

Yes, some preparation is required to ensure smooth delivery and installation. Make sure the site is level, accessible, and strong enough to support the sauna's weight (approximately 600–700kg plus users). If you’re using a hired installation team, clearing the path from drop-off to the setup location is essential. You’ll also need to plan for electrical access and confirm your setup with a qualified electrician beforehand.

Unloading is not included by default with standard kerbside delivery. The sauna is shipped flat-packed on a pallet and delivered to the edge of your property. You’ll need to arrange for manual unloading or use equipment like a forklift, depending on your access and manpower. If you’d prefer support, our team can assist with unloading for an additional fee.

Yes, a certified electrician is required to connect the sauna heater. Most compatible heaters for the Camilla XL (such as 8–9kW models) require a three-phase electrical supply, dedicated isolator switch, and proper wiring that complies with UK standards. If you choose a wood-burning heater, electrical setup is less extensive, but an electrician may still be needed for lighting or other features.

You have the option to self-assemble the Camilla XL or hire professional installers. The flat-pack design comes with a detailed instruction manual, and many customers choose to install it themselves with some assistance. However, if you want to ensure the best fit and finish — or just save time — professional installation is highly recommended and can be arranged during the order process.

Basic carpentry tools and general DIY skills are sufficient for self-assembly. You'll need items like screwdrivers, a level, drill, mallet, and measuring tape. It helps to have at least one or two extra sets of hands during the process, as some parts are heavy or awkward to position. Reading the manual carefully ahead of time is strongly encouraged.

The Camilla XL heats to a comfortable 80 °C in approximately 25–35 minutes, depending on the heater you choose. Higher-powered electric heaters (like the Harvia Cilindro or SP90XW) offer faster warm-up times and more even heat distribution. Once heated, the sauna retains warmth well thanks to its thick Thermowood walls and well-sealed door.

Yes, this sauna is covered by a 2-year manufacturer warranty that protects against structural and manufacturing defects. Heater warranties are provided separately by their respective brands and typically range from 12 to 24 months. To ensure your warranty remains valid, apply the recommended breathable wood oil immediately after installation and follow all electrical and setup guidelines.
