The Leisurecraft CT Serenity Barrel Sauna is handcrafted in Canada from Premium Grade A Eastern White Cedar, the same material that defines the Canadian Timber Collection across every model in the lineup, and it uses the barrel format for exactly the reason the barrel format exists: the curved interior concentrates heat where people sit, eliminates the dead air that accumulates in the corners of flat-wall rooms, and allows a smaller interior volume to reach temperature efficiently and hold it longer. The Serenity is the mid-size barrel in the Canadian Timber Collection, positioned between the 4-person Harmony and the larger Tranquility, seating up to five people in a 222 cubic foot interior that is sized right for households that want room without the footprint of a cabin sauna.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe walls are 1.5-inch Eastern White Cedar staves, lighter in tone and tighter in grain than darker cedar species, naturally moisture and insect resistant, and possessed of the aromatic quality that distinguishes a cedar sauna interior from any substitute. The bands that hold the barrel together are marine-grade aluminum with stainless steel bolts -- not standard steel, not galvanized, but marine-grade aluminum chosen for outdoor environments where corrosion resistance over the life of the installation matters. The stainless steel hardware throughout completes a hardware package designed for long-term outdoor exposure without maintenance concerns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front wall assembly includes a 5mm bronze tempered glass door with a cedar frame, pre-hung for installation straight from the crate. The door opens onto a built-in front porch with benches that functions both as a dedicated space to cool down between sessions and as a protective overhang for the door opening. Inside, the solid Eastern White Cedar benches are wide enough to sit or recline, built on a flat cedar floor with a complete sauna vent kit including stainless steel grilles and a cedar vent cover. The barrel sits on solid cedar cradles -- the structural base that levels the sauna on whatever surface you install it on, whether concrete, deck, patio stone, or crushed gravel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CTC2245E is configured for electric heat. A 6kW heater is selected at time of order from Leisurecraft's full lineup of compatible options. All final electrical connections must be completed by a certified electrician on a 240V, 30 to 50 amp circuit depending on the heater selected. The roof is available in two configurations at time of order: a premium asphalt shingle roof or a black metal roof -- both are structural choices that provide permanent weather protection as part of the kit, not covers or accessories. The optional halfmoon windows add two rear-wall windows that let light into the back of the barrel interior for a more open feel during sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade to order in Melancthon, Ontario.

Every unit is handcrafted and carries the quality standard that has made the Canadian Timber Collection the benchmark for outdoor barrel saunas in North America.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEastern White Cedar Construction Throughout -- Premium Grade A Eastern White Cedar for the exterior stave walls, interior surfaces, benches, and flat floor. Lighter in tone and tighter in grain than darker cedar species, naturally moisture and insect resistant, and naturally aromatic at sauna temperatures. Wall thickness is 1.5 inches throughout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarrel Design for Fast, Efficient Heating -- The curved stave barrel format eliminates dead air volume at the corners and concentrates heat at the bench level, allowing the 222 cubic foot interior to reach operating temperature faster and hold it more consistently than a flat-wall room of comparable footprint.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeats Up to 5 People -- The Serenity's interior dimensions of 83 inches wide by 71 inches deep by 79 inches tall provide genuine room for up to five adults. The bench width is sufficient for sitting or reclining during longer sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine-Grade Aluminum Bands with Stainless Steel Bolts -- The barrel staves are held together by marine-grade aluminum bands tensioned with stainless steel bolts, chosen for outdoor environments where corrosion resistance matters over the life of the installation. Bands require periodic inspection and tightening as the cedar expands and contracts seasonally.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5mm Bronze Tempered Glass Door with Cedar Frame -- Cedar-framed sauna door with 5mm bronze tempered glass, pre-hung on the front wall for straightforward installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-In Front Porch with Benches -- A 45cm (approximately 18-inch) built-in front porch with seating is included in the standard kit. The porch functions as a cool-down space between sessions and provides a protective overhang above the door opening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlat Cedar Floor -- A flat cedar floor panel is included and installs inside the barrel for a more comfortable underfoot surface than the curved stave floor of entry-level barrel models.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid Cedar Cradles -- The barrel sits on solid cedar cradles that provide the structural base for the installation. Cradles distribute weight evenly and can be installed on concrete, wood deck, patio stone, or crushed gravel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete Sauna Vent Kit -- A full vent kit including stainless steel sauna vent grilles and a cedar vent cover is included, providing the controlled airflow required for proper sauna function.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectric Heater Configuration with Multiple Options -- The CTC2245E is configured for electric heat.
