Built to order in Ontario, freight included. Your unit is handcrafted to order in Melancthon, Ontario and ships by insured LTL freight. Freight and all cross border charges are included in the price, so there is no separate shipping cost and no customs bill at the door.
Build time, not ship time. Every unit is made to order, so each product page shows an estimated build date rather than a delivery date. Transit is additional, and build dates move with production volume, with peak season running February through May. We confirm your date in writing once your order is placed.
What the carrier does. The freight company calls to schedule an appointment and delivers to the end of your driveway or the curb, usually on an 18 wheel truck. The driver will not unload your crate and will not back into your driveway, so check that a truck that size can reach your property before you order.
You are responsible for unloading. Crates run 6 to 14 feet long and 800 to 1,600 pounds depending on the model. If your crate is 84 inches or shorter the carrier may have a liftgate to help lower it. Longer than that there is no liftgate, which covers most of the barrel and cabin range, so you will need a forklift with extensions, a trailer to collect from the terminal, or a crew on hand. Plan this before you order and we will work it out with you.
If it arrives damaged. Accept it, photograph everything before moving it, and write "Crate arrived open/damaged, possible hidden damage" on the Bill of Lading. Then call us within 72 hours. A clean signature releases the carrier and makes a claim nearly impossible to win.
Where it ships. Included freight covers standard residential curbside delivery in the contiguous 48 states. Alaska, Hawaii and Canada require a quote before ordering. Build and transit times are estimates, not guarantees.
Five years, residential. Products designed and manufactured by Dundalk LeisureCraft, including the Canadian Timber Collection, are covered against defects in materials and workmanship under normal residential use for 5 years from the day you receive the product.
Parts only. The warranty covers replacement of defective parts. Service, labor and installation costs are expressly excluded by the manufacturer, and a replacement part does not extend the original 5 year period.
What is not covered. Normal wear and tear, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, natural weather conditions, and failure to follow the installation and care instructions.
Heaters, stoves and chillers are separate. These sit on LeisureCraft's component schedule and it honors the component manufacturer's terms directly. Electric heaters carry 3 years, excluding elements and rocks, and HUUM also excludes sensors. Wood burning stoves run 2 to 5 years, with LeisureCraft's own Timberglow at 5, excluding the glass door, ash grate and rocks. LeisureCraft chimney kits carry 5 years with no exclusions. Chillers carry 1 to 2 years. Component coverage is parts only, and we confirm the exact term for your configuration in writing before you order.
Use a licensed electrician. All electrical connections on heaters and chillers must be made by a licensed electrician, or LeisureCraft voids the component warranty. Improper installation is excluded from the 5 year sauna warranty as well.
If you have seen a 3 year figure. Some older listings and in box manuals still show 3 years for the Canadian Timber Collection. LeisureCraft's current published policy is 5 years, and that is the coverage we confirm in writing with every order.
Residential use. The 5 year term is written for normal residential use and LeisureCraft publishes no commercial warranty. Buying for a gym, clinic, spa, hotel or rental? Call us first and we will get the factory's position in writing.
Who handles it. As your authorized dealer we handle the claim with the manufacturer for you. Call (888) 500-5675 with your order number and photos.
Built to order, so not returnable. Each unit is handcrafted for your specific order in Melancthon, Ontario, and because of that the manufacturer does not accept returns or exchanges. Please call us before you buy if anything is unclear; we would far rather answer questions first than have you end up with the wrong sauna.
Cancellations. Production is scheduled as soon as your order is placed. Contact us as early as you can at (888) 500-5675. If your build has not started we will do everything we can to cancel at no cost. If it has, we will tell you plainly where you stand.
Damaged on arrival, you are covered. Transit damage is handled by replacement, not return. Accept the shipment, photograph the damage before moving anything, and write "Crate arrived open/damaged, possible hidden damage" on the Bill of Lading before signing. Call us within 72 hours and the manufacturer ships replacement wood or components at no charge. Damage reported after a clean signature is very difficult to claim.
Five year residential warranty. Products manufactured by LeisureCraft carry a limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship under normal residential use for five years from the day you receive them. Valid claims are resolved with replacement parts at no charge.
What the warranty does not cover. It is parts only: service, labour and installation are expressly excluded, and a replaced part does not restart the five years. It excludes normal wear and tear, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, weather damage, and failure to follow the care instructions. Cedar is a natural material, so seasonal movement and colour change to silver grey are normal and are not defects.
Two exceptions worth knowing. The warranty is written for residential use, so if you are buying for a gym, clinic, spa or rental property call us first and we will confirm your coverage in writing. And sauna heaters are not LeisureCraft made: Harvia, HUUM and Narvi units carry their own manufacturer warranties.
The CT Element Studio: the only Element that gets deeper, not just wider
Full glass front, thermally modified Thermo Grandis instead of cedar, and an optional
warm lighting package. The Studio is the 64x84: 191 cubic feet, comfortable for up to four. It is the
only size in the range where the depth changes, 64¾ inches against 54¾ on both the
Nook and the Loft. That extra ten inches is floor, in front of the bench: room to stand up, to towel
off, and to pass someone who is already sitting down.
Built to order in Melancthon, Ontario and shipped flat, as pre-cut panels, which is the
only reason a room this size can be put into a finished basement at all. Traditional rock-and-steam
heat, not infrared, so it reaches real sauna temperature and takes water on the stones.

Watch the build
Watch the Dundalk LeisureCraft CT Element Studio go together
LeisureCraft's own build footage, filmed on this exact model. It is the clearest look at the Studio's interior and the extra floor depth that exists, and it shows you what a build day actually involves before you order rather than after.
Straight answer first
Where the Studio earns its place: and why the depth matters more than the width
The Studio is the only Element where the room changes shape rather than just getting longer. Nook
and Loft are both 54¾ inches deep. The Studio is 64¾. Ten inches does not sound like much until you
are the person standing up while someone else is on the bench, or reaching past a hot heater guard to
get to the door.
That is what the extra depth buys: floor. Room to stand, room to towel off inside rather than in
the doorway, and clearance around the heater when the room is full. The bench geometry itself is
unchanged, upper bench 36 inches off the floor, lower bench at 18, exactly as on the Nook, because
LeisureCraft builds all three to the same section.
It is still an indoor, electric, traditional sauna. Outdoors is the cedar barrel and cabin line,
and if you want infrared this is the wrong product.
Core material
Thermo Grandis: the material choice behind the Studio
The wood is thermally modified in Ontario before it is ever cut. The process drives moisture and sugars out of the timber, which is what makes it hold its shape in a room that swings from ambient to sauna temperature several times a week. Wood that still holds sugar moves, cups and weeps. That matters more on a four-person room than on the smaller two, because a Studio tends to be run back to back, with the door opened between sittings, and it carries the largest panel area in the line taking every one of those cycles.
It also produces the deep, even brown you see in the photographs. That is the treatment, not a stain or a veneer, so it does not wear off the surface, and there is nothing to reapply. At 64¾ by 84¾ inches the Studio shows more of it than either of the smaller two, including the run of Thermo Grandis floor between the lower bench and the heater guard that a 54¾-inch room does not have.
Element Studio construction
How the Studio is built
Triple-layer walls
Interior wood, a vapor barrier, an air gap and an exterior finish. The air gap is the useful part: it lets an electrician route the heater and light wiring inside the wall, so nothing is surface-mounted down a panel you have to look at. What travels through the gap on this model is the heater and light wiring, in the one Element whose side walls run 64¾ inches deep rather than 54¾.
Fully framed floor
A fully framed floor on solid wood joists with a Thermo Grandis surface, so the room arrives structurally finished rather than needing a base built for it. It sits level on an existing floor with no separate pan and no drain, which is what lets an Element go into a basement or a spare room without plumbing work. It is also the only floor in the line built for a 64¾-inch-deep cabin, and that is what the Studio's standing room is laid on.
10 mm glass, and ten more inches of floor
The door and front window are 10 mm glass, noticeably thicker than the glass on the outdoor barrel and cabin models, and on this size the front wall carries three lites, a hinged door with a fixed panel to either side, across an opening 74¾ inches wide. The bench section is the one thing the extra depth does not change: LeisureCraft's drawing puts the upper bench 36 inches off the floor and the lower at 18, both dimensioned at 19½ inches on its assembly sheet, the same section on all three sizes. So the extra ten inches lands as floor in front of the bench, not as a deeper seat.
Choosing your heater
The glass front is what sets the heater size
The Studio holds 191 cubic feet, and on volume alone it would take the same 6 kW the Loft takes. Volume alone is not how this room works. The whole front is glass, and glass gives heat back to a room far more slowly than a thermo-treated wall does, so the heater carries that load for the whole session. LeisureCraft's own heater calculator asks you to enter your glass area for exactly this reason. Put the Studio's 40½ square feet of front glazing against its 191 cubic feet and it returns an adjusted volume of 353 cubic feet and a recommended output of 7.5 kW to 9 kW. That is the band the three heaters below sit in.
LeisureCraft's model table prints 6 kW against the Studio, and some sellers follow it. The same company's calculator, given the same company's dimensions, does not: it puts the 6 kW Harvia KIP at 170 to 300 cubic feet, and this room is above that. Where the table and the arithmetic disagree we go with the arithmetic, because a heater working at its ceiling every session is the one sauna decision you cannot put right afterwards.
Harvia KIP
Finnish, wall-mounted, with time and temperature set on dials built into the heater body, so there is no separate wall unit to buy or wire, and no app either. Taken here at 8 kW, a rated room of 250 to 425 cubic feet, which puts the Studio's adjusted 353 near the middle. Stone capacity is 44 lb, the smallest of the three. The straightforward choice, and much the lowest-priced of the three.
HUUM HIVE Mini
Floor-standing, and the biggest of the three at 9 kW, rated for 283 to 460 cubic feet. That is the one heater here that holds the Studio in the middle of its range rather than near the top, which is what you want if the sauna is going to run long sessions or back-to-back ones. It takes ten boxes of stone where the Drop takes four, the largest stone load on this page, and it runs from the same HUUM UKU control.
HUUM Drop
Estonian-made, taken here at 7.5 kW with a rated room of 248 to 389 cubic feet. It hangs on a wall frame with its stone in the open, so the floor and the bench plan stay clear, and it carries 121 lb (55 kg) of olivine diabase against the Harvia’s 44 lb, nearly three times as much. That mass is what gives the softer, longer-lasting steam when you pour. Run from a HUUM UKU control, which is where the schedule and the phone app live.
Your heater is chosen at the top of this page and added to your order as its own line. That is how LeisureCraft builds them, and it is why you are not paying for a heater that is wrong for your room. All three above cover a Studio. The one marked as our recommendation is the HUUM DROP 7: it clears the room on output, hangs on the wall rather than taking floor, and brings app control at the middle price of the three. If you want a second opinion before you choose, call (888) 500-5675. Already own a suitable heater? Order the sauna on its own and we will check the specification with you first. One warranty note worth having in writing: LeisureCraft’s published schedule lists three years on the HUUM Drop, excluding elements, rocks and sensors, while HUUM’s own marketing quotes five. Three years is the term we buy under, and the one we confirm with your order.

Living with it
What a week in the Element Studio actually looks like
Back-to-back
Four people through it in a morning without the room dropping out of temperature between sittings. 191 cubic feet of air changes temperature more slowly when the door opens than the Nook’s 93 does, so nobody is standing there waiting for it to recover.
Standing room
The ten inches of extra depth is the part you feel every session, standing up, turning round, stepping past the heater guard while someone else is on the bench. It is why the Studio reads as a room rather than a cabinet.
When it is the center of the space
An 84¾-inch-wide front that is mostly glass is a wall, not a window. In a gym or a wellness room the Studio ends
up being the thing the room is arranged around, which is worth planning for before the crate
arrives.
Who buys this one
Three people who need the Studio specifically
The household of four
Not four people in rotation, four people in the room. That is the point at which the extra
depth stops being comfort and starts being the thing that makes it usable.
The home or performance gym
Where people finish sessions at different times and the sauna has to take them as they come. The larger air volume holds temperature through repeated door openings, so the last one in is not waiting for it.
The studio or clinic
The glass front and the finish read as a design object in a treatment room. One thing to settle first: LeisureCraft’s published warranty is residential, so ask us about commercial coverage before you order.
Full specifications
Studio indoor sauna specifications, and exactly where the three sizes differ
All three share the same construction, the same 80½-inch interior height, the same Thermo
Grandis and the same electric-only design. Footprint and heater size are what change.
*Dealer-reported crate weights. LeisureCraft does not publish a packaged weight; it varies with the heater and options included.
Dimensions are LeisureCraft's published figures, checked against their
engineering drawings, all three interior volumes reconcile exactly. Note that LeisureCraft's own spec table mis-prints the Studio's exterior metric conversions, it lists 64.75" as 215 cm and 84.75" as 224 cm, where the correct figures are 164 cm and 215 cm. The imperial figures above govern.
Also available: Element Nook (54x54)
and Element Loft (54x74).
Not sure which fits? Compare the interior volumes above rather than the footprints, that is the number that decides how the room actually feels.
Ownership, in numbers
What the Element Studio costs to use, once it is in the room
The Studio costs the least per person-session of the three, for the obvious reason that more people fit in it. If the sauna is going into a household of four, a gym or a shared space, that is the number that matters, not the sticker.

Documents
Manuals and drawings
The documents LeisureCraft supplies with the Studio. The dimensioned drawing is the one to hand your electrician and to measure your room against.
Freight and all cross-border charges are already in the price, curbside to the contiguous 48 states. A few situations do add cost, a tilt-tow truck, an address change after the crate has shipped, or terminal storage if a delivery appointment stalls. Every one of them is avoidable, and every one is listed in plain language on our shipping policy.
Built to order
Nothing is stocked. Your unit joins the production queue in Melancthon, Ontario, and is cut to your order, which is also why LeisureCraft accepts no returns on it. Your build confirmation comes to you in writing with the production window and the exact crate dimensions. The Studio crate runs about 844 lb, a dealer-reported figure, since LeisureCraft does not publish a packaged weight.
Inspect before you sign
Photograph any damage and write it on the Bill of Lading before you sign, then call us within 72 hours. A clean signature makes a freight claim very hard to win. The crate arrives on an LTL truck and curbside is what is included; Professional Setup & Assembly is an option in the buy box above. Either way, confirm the crate dimensions and your access route with us before you order, that is the step that goes wrong most often.
Because each unit is cut for your order, LeisureCraft does not accept returns or exchanges at any
point. If your build has not started we will do everything we can to cancel at no cost, call us the
moment anything changes. Read our LeisureCraft
shipping policy and return policy
before ordering, and call us with any doubt, because we would rather talk it through first.
Before you start. Heat loads the cardiovascular system. If
you are pregnant, have heart disease, high or low blood pressure, a seizure disorder or diabetes, have a
pacemaker or another implanted cardiac or electronic device, are recovering from surgery, have Raynaud's
syndrome, or take medication affecting blood pressure, thermoregulation or alertness, speak to your
doctor first. This is not an exhaustive list, if you have any health condition, ask your doctor before
you start. Never use a sauna after drinking alcohol, and children should not use one unsupervised.
Buyer questions
Element Studio 4-person indoor sauna: the questions buyers actually ask
What does the Studio's extra depth actually buy me?
Floor space in front of the bench. The Studio is 64¾ inches deep against 54¾ on both the Nook and the Loft, it is the only size in the range where the depth changes at all. The bench itself is built to the same section on all three, dimensioned at 19 1/2 inches with the upper 36 inches off the floor, so those ten inches all land as clear floor: room to stand up, to towel off inside, and to get past the heater guard while someone else is sitting down.
Does the Studio need a bigger heater than the Loft?
Yes. The Loft sizes to 6 kW and the Studio to 7.5 kW or more. Both have a glass front, and LeisureCraft's own heater calculator adds that glass to the room before it recommends an output: the Loft comes out at an adjusted 276 cubic feet, the Studio at 353, and 353 is past the top of every 6 kW heater on the list. LeisureCraft's model table prints 6 kW against both, which is where the confusion comes from. Your electrician sizes the circuit to the specific heater you choose.
Can I put a Studio in a commercial space, a gym, a studio or a clinic?
The thing to settle first is the warranty: LeisureCraft publishes a five-year residential limited warranty, and we have not seen a published commercial term for this line. Call us before you order and we will get the commercial position confirmed by the factory in writing rather than guess at it.
Can I fit a wood-burning heater?
No. The Element line is electric-only by design, because it is built for rooms where a chimney isn't practical. If you want wood-fired heat, look at the outdoor barrel and cabin models instead.
What electrical work does it need?
A dedicated circuit and a licensed electrician. Your heater's own installation manual, your electrician and your local inspector govern; we send you the manufacturer's sheet with your order. Improper installation is excluded from the warranty. The triple-layer wall includes an air gap specifically so the heater and light wiring can be routed inside the wall rather than surface-mounted.
How hard is it to assemble, and how long does it take?
It ships as pre-cut, pre-drilled panels. LeisureCraft's manual calls for two people, a cordless drill, a nail gun, a level and square, silicone, wood glue and putty; the inside corner trims are cut to fit on site. Budget a full day rather than an afternoon. The complete assembly manual is linked on this page so you can read it before you order, not after, and the build video runs the whole thing start to finish.
Will it fit through a standard door?
It arrives as flat panels, not assembled, which is the whole point of the panelized build. The crate is a freight crate rather than a parcel, so plan for the delivery, but the panels are handled one at a time rather than as a finished cabin, so tell us your access route and we confirm the panel sizes with the factory before your build. Assembled, the Studio stands 88.0625" tall, measure your ceiling before you order, and call us if it's tight.
Does it need a floor drain or plumbing?
No. The Element includes a fully framed floor on solid wood joists with a Thermo Grandis surface, so it sits on your finished floor without a drain, a pan or any plumbing. A traditional sauna uses very little water, what you ladle onto the stones evaporates.
What does the warranty cover?
Five years, residential, against defects in materials and workmanship, running from the day you receive it. It is a parts-only warranty, service, labor and installation are excluded, and a replaced part does not restart the five years. Heaters sit outside it and carry their own manufacturer terms, which we confirm in writing with your order. Full terms are on the LeisureCraft warranty page.
Can I pay for this over time?
Yes. Shop Pay Installments is available at checkout on orders up to $30,000. Terms, the length of the plan and whether interest applies all depend on the amount financed and on approval, so the exact offer is the one presented to you at checkout rather than anything we can quote here. Call us if you would rather talk it through before you apply.
What happens if I change my mind after ordering?
Every Element is cut for your specific order, so LeisureCraft does not accept returns or exchanges at any point, that is their policy, not a restocking-fee arrangement, and we would rather you knew it before you order than after. If your build has not started we will do everything we can to cancel it at no cost to you, which is why the single most useful thing you can do is call the moment anything changes. Our full LeisureCraft return policy sets out where you stand.
Is a traditional sauna safe for me?
For most healthy adults, used sensibly, yes, but heat genuinely loads the cardiovascular system, so this is a question for your doctor rather than for us. Speak to them first if you are pregnant, have heart disease, high or low blood pressure, a seizure disorder or diabetes, have a pacemaker or another implanted cardiac or electronic device, are recovering from surgery, have Raynaud's syndrome, or take medication affecting blood pressure, thermoregulation or alertness. That list is not exhaustive. Never use a sauna after drinking alcohol, and children should not use one unsupervised.
Is Recovery Room Direct an authorized LeisureCraft dealer?
Yes. We buy directly from the manufacturer in Melancthon, Ontario, your build is placed against your order, and we send you LeisureCraft's warranty terms with your order confirmation. When something needs sorting out, we deal with the factory on your behalf.
