Description

The Renu Therapy Rusticus 3 is a three-person indoor sauna cabin in rustic red cedar with a 6 kW KIP electric stove, a Harvia Fenix touchscreen controller and the MyHarvia 2 app. Renu rates it up to 195°F; the interior measures 53¼ by 60¼ by 77⅜ inches, about 144 cubic feet, with upper and lower benches.

Its walls are 1-3/8 inch tongue-and-groove lumber with a full tempered-glass door of about 75¼ by 26 inches, and a dimmable LED light bar sits in the backrest. The stove needs a dedicated 240 V 30 A circuit wired by a licensed electrician; the light plugs into a 110 V outlet.

It weighs about 700 lb assembled, is made for hard floors indoors, and ships unassembled for about six hours of assembly. Hem Fir is an option at $8,020.00. The warranty is a limited lifetime on the room, five years on components and one year on the heater.
