The Golden Designs "Gargellen" Hybrid Outdoor Sauna brings flexibility and function to your wellness practice with both traditional and infrared heating options in one thoughtfully crafted outdoor unit.
The 8.0 kW traditional stove provides a classic high-heat sauna experience—ideal in all outdoor conditions. When the weather is milder (around 45°F or warmer), switch to the Full Spectrum Infrared system, featuring 10 total heating elements: 4 PureTech™ Near Zero EMF carbon panels and 6 near-infrared emitters. These layers of heat support relaxation and comfort at varying intensities.
Designed for larger households or wellness spaces, the Gargellen comfortably accommodates up to 5 people. The interior is accented by bronze privacy glass, chromotherapy lighting, and a Bluetooth-ready sound system, creating an environment that feels both energizing and serene.
This outdoor sauna is delivered in 10 boxes and requires a 240V / 40AMP dedicated electrical connection. Professional installation and consultation with a licensed electrician are highly recommended.
Pair this sauna with a cold plunge for the ultimate contrast therapy experience—a time-tested method for total-body renewal.
🌟 Why Choose a Hybrid Sauna?
A hybrid sauna gives you the best of both traditional and infrared heating—so you can tailor your experience to your needs.
-
Traditional Heating
Enjoy the classic sauna ritual with a Harvia stove, which creates a warm environment and allows for gentle steam when water is poured over the hot stones.
-
Full Spectrum Infrared Heat
Infrared panels provide a more direct, lower-temperature heat that many users find soothing and comfortable for regular use.
This combination lets you alternate between a classic high-heat session and a more gentle infrared experience—all in one versatile, thoughtfully designed space. Whether you prefer a quick recharge or a longer, relaxing session, a hybrid sauna offers the flexibility to match your wellness routine.
🔥 Traditional vs. Infrared Sauna — What's the Difference?

| Room Temperature | ~170–190°F | ~115–130°F |
| Heating Style | Heats the air, then the body | Heats the body directly |
| Steam Option | Light steam from water on stones | Dry heat only |
| Sweating Intensity | More profuse sweating | Gentle, sustained sweating |
| Warm-Up Time | 30–45 minutes | 10–15 minutes |
| Ideal For | Sauna traditionalists, deep detox | Daily wellness, sensitive users |
♨️ Important Note on Steam Function:
This traditional sauna is not a steam shower or steam room.
The Harvia stove in this unit uses water poured over hot sauna stones to create a gentle steam, which naturally raises humidity inside the sauna room. This process enhances the traditional sauna experience by softening the heat and supporting deeper sweating.
However, this is not a sealed steam enclosure and will not produce thick, fog-like steam similar to a steam shower or Turkish-style steam bath. The humidity is noticeable — but mild — and designed to complement dry heat, not replace a dedicated steam system.
✨ In short: This is a traditional dry sauna with added steam enhancement, not a steam shower hybrid.
