SaunaLife CL3GB: the smallest SaunaLife room, with a glass front wall
The SaunaLife CL3GB is a two person outdoor cube sauna kit. It is SaunaLife’s smallest room, taking up about 53 by 51 inches outside. The bronze tinted glass front wall and door give you a view out from the bench. The B version includes black exterior sauna paint that you brush on yourself. Inside, the benches and backrest are heat treated aspen, with curved seating surfaces to help you sit comfortably. There is an upper bench, a low bench, and a small side bench. A shingle roof kit also comes in the box.
A white LED light bar is included, with a Wi-Fi app and a handheld remote to control it. The heater is sold separately, so choose one of the 3 electric heater packages on the page, all 4.5 kW, each with its control and stones. You can also add a Kolo bucket and ladle or wood care supplies. Need more seating room? See the SaunaLife CL4GB outdoor cube sauna. The SaunaLife CL3GB ships from Norse Steam by flat rate freight with No Sales Tax (except WY) and our 100% price match guarantee.

FAQ
What does the B in the model name mean, and do I have to paint it myself?
The B means the SaunaLife CL3GB comes with two containers of black exterior sauna paint, and yes, you brush it on yourself after assembly. Follow the paint manual on the Manual tab and use it only outside, never inside the hot room. The paint expands and contracts with the weather and will need a fresh coat over the years to stay black.
Does this sauna come with a heater, and what size should I pick?
No, a heater is not included. The three optional heater packages on this page are all 4.5 kW and sized for this room, each with controls and stones. Pick one when you order or buy one later.
What electrical work does it need?
Your installation depends on your property, but every heater package on this page needs its own dedicated 240 volt circuit, hardwired by a licensed electrician using the heater manual for breaker and wire sizing. These heaters cannot plug in, use extension cords, or share a dryer, hot tub, or EV circuit. Have your electrician plan buried conduit and a weatherproof disconnect for outdoor runs, plus a weatherproof box you provide outside the hot room for the LED power unit.
What do I put under it? Can it go on a deck?
Yes, if your deck is built to carry the weight, which needs checking for your property. Use a firm, flat, level base such as compacted gravel topped with pavers, a concrete slab, or a suitable deck, never bare grass or soil. The Specifications tab lists a 990 pound shipping weight, and an uneven base can leave the wall pieces misaligned and the door unable to latch.
How long does it take to build?
Plan on a full weekend for a first build, based on owner reports. SaunaLife rates its cube kits for two people to assemble, and hanging the door is the step to take slowly. Plan the electrician's visit for a separate day.
Does the glass front lose heat in winter?
Yes, the glass front loses a little more heat in deep cold, though the sauna is built for year round outdoor use. In freezing weather, heating often takes 45 to 90 minutes instead of 30 to 45 minutes. Keep the vents clear.
How many people really fit?
Two people fit seated, which is the maximum bench capacity. One person has more room to stretch out, but the upper bench is only 49.2 inches long, so check that against your height if you want to lie down.
What is thermo spruce, and does it smell like a sauna?
Thermo spruce is Nordic spruce treated in a kiln with heat and steam, and it has a mild toasted smell rather than a strong cedar aroma. The treatment helps it absorb less moisture and move less with the weather, and the wood has no resin. Bare wood turns silver gray over time, but this model uses black paint as its exterior finish.
How is it delivered?
It arrives by appointment on a freight truck, on a wooden pallet, with curbside delivery only. The driver lowers the pallet to the ground, so have two or three people ready to carry the pieces to your build spot. Inspect the crate before signing and note any damage on the receipt.
