Track Record

What We Have Actually Delivered in the Americas — and How

South Florida is a new market for us and we will not pretend otherwise. Here is the real record, and the delivery model that goes with it.

01
Boston, Massachusetts

Our North America Office

66 Long Wharf, Unit 4B, Boston, MA 02110 — the commercial and project-management base that covers South Florida. It is an office, not an installation depot; see the delivery model below.

02
New York, USA

Private Residence Steam Rooms

Custom steam room work for private residences — the scale of US project we have delivered to date, supplied from our Istanbul production and installed with local trades.

03
Costa Rica

Commercial Day Spa

A commercial day spa commission in the Americas — the nearest-region reference to a South Florida wellness or recovery club.

04
Montenegro · Azerbaijan

One&Only Portonovi · Four Seasons Baku

The reference base behind a Brickell or Miami Beach project: resort and flagship hotel wellness floors delivered turnkey, from the same drawing office and the same factory.

We do not claim Florida projects we have not built. Our verifiable depth is delivered work in 41+ countries since 1987, and references plus a virtual tour of completed work are available on request.

Local Engineering

What South Florida Does to a Spa That Nowhere Else Does

Two things govern a Miami wellness project that do not exist in our other markets: the way we are allowed to deliver here, and what year-round heat and humidity do to a recovery suite.

01

Supply and supervision — not a resident install crew

South Florida is covered from our Boston office at 66 Long Wharf. We are the manufacturer and the engineer: we supply the cabin, the plant and the full technical package, and installation is executed by your licensed local contractor working to our shop drawings, with our own engineers on site for set-out, supervision and commissioning. We do not employ a resident installation crew in North America and we do not hold a Florida contractor's licence. Everything electrical is specified UL- or ETL-listed, because a CE mark alone will not pass a US electrical inspection.

02

Which code your Florida project is actually inspected against

The governing document is the Florida Building Code, 8th Edition (2023), in force since 31 December 2023; the 9th Edition takes effect 31 December 2026, so a project running into 2027 should be checked against both. The High-Velocity Hurricane Zone that covers Miami-Dade and Broward is defined in the code itself, at FBC §202 and R202 — not in the statute, which is a common citation error.

On product approvals: Miami-Dade RER Product Control Notices of Acceptance cover building-envelope products. There is no NOA category for a sauna cabin, a steam room or a plunge tank — but the doors, glazing, roofing and fasteners around them do need one, and that is where an outdoor or rooftop wellness suite meets the requirement.

On water: Florida Statutes Chapter 515, the Preston de Ibern/McKenzie Merriam Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act, applies to residential pools deeper than 24 inches and sets the safety-feature options at §515.27. Whether a cold plunge falls inside that definition is genuinely unsettled — no Florida statute, rule or declaratory statement uses the term — and Florida has not adopted the ISPSC. We design plunges to the Chapter 515 safety provisions as a matter of course rather than argue the point with a plans examiner.

03

A cold plunge in Miami is a genuinely harder duty

ASHRAE's 0.4% summer design dry-bulb for Miami is 33.3 °C — lower than Dubai's 43.3 — but the design wet-bulb of 26.9 °C and the near-constant humidity are what actually drive the plant. Two consequences. A plunge held at 3–5 °C in that ambient runs its chiller far closer to continuous duty than the same pool in a temperate climate, so we size on run hours rather than on peak pull-down, and we allow for the condensation load on chilled surfaces and pipework. And an indoor sauna or steam suite next to a humid outdoor environment needs its vapour barrier and dehumidification designed as one system — in Miami the moisture is trying to get in as well as out.

03

Outdoor cabins face wind and salt, not just sun

An outdoor sauna, plunge enclosure or rooftop recovery deck in coastal South Florida is exposed to hurricane-season wind loading and to salt-laden air, and both belong in the specification rather than in the maintenance manual. We detail outdoor structures for fixing and uplift resistance, specify stainless and marine-grade hardware for coastal exposure, and coordinate the structural fixing design with the project's engineer of record — who signs it for permitting, because we do not.

Sources: ASHRAE Handbook—Fundamentals, Climatic Design Conditions (2021 ed.), Miami, WMO 722020, and Dubai Intl, WMO 411940, for the comparison. Statements about our delivery model describe our own company; permitting and structural sign-off are the responsibility of the licensed local professionals we work alongside.

Room by room

The four rooms we build most

Each room has its own temperature and humidity range; the layout follows those ranges.

01

Turkish hammam

Room air 40–50 °C, heated navel stone surface 40–45 °C. Marble or travertine cladding, a dome or sloped ceiling, kurna basins and the navel stone. Floor and bench heating go into the substructure; the liquid-applied waterproofing goes on in two coats and is closed with a 24-hour water test.

02

Finnish sauna

80–100 °C, relative humidity 5–15%. Timber: ayous, aspen and pine; alder on request. Ceiling height 2.10–2.30 m; any higher and the top bench stays cold.

03

Steam room

40–50 °C, humidity close to 100%. The ceiling slopes at least 3° so condensation runs down the walls. The steam generator is a Condair unit. Cladding in glass mosaic or stone; no return air, a separate extract.

04

Cold plunge pool

2–15 °C, depending on the chiller capacity. Placed at the exit of the heat rooms, three to five steps away, not across the room.

Miami & South Florida

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you work in Miami and South Florida?

Yes. We take on projects across South Florida — Miami, Brickell, Miami Beach, Coral Gables, Fort Lauderdale and beyond — for homes, hotels and recovery clubs, served from our US office at 66 Long Wharf, Boston. We have no office in Miami and no completed Miami projects yet. We supply and engineer; installation is carried out by your licensed local contractor under our supervision.

Do you build cold plunge and contrast-therapy setups?

Yes — it's our specialty. We design and manufacture integrated sauna, cold plunge, steam and recovery suites as one system, engineered for daily high-use contrast therapy.

How much does a custom sauna or cold plunge cost in Miami?

We quote per project rather than publish a range, because the same specification lands at a very different total from one building to the next. What moves the figure is the size of the cabin or wet room, the timber and stone grade, the heater or steam generator selected, how much of the enclosure is glass, the waterproofing, tanking and drainage the room already has, and how far power, water, drainage and ventilation have to be brought to it. Send us the room dimensions, the ceiling height, the access route and the services already reaching the space, and we return an itemised, position-by-position quotation covering equipment, construction and installation.

Can you build outdoor saunas and cold plunges for the Florida climate?

Yes. We engineer outdoor saunas, cold plunges and recovery areas for South Florida's heat, humidity and wind requirements, with weather-rated materials and finishes.

Are your installations compliant with Florida and Miami-Dade codes?

Yes. Installations use UL/ETL-listed components and are engineered to the Florida Building Code (FBC) and Miami-Dade requirements, including outdoor and high-humidity conditions, coordinated with local permitting.

Why choose a European manufacturer over a US prefab supplier?

40 years of delivered work in 41+ countries, fully in-house manufacturing under our TS EN ISO 9001:2015 quality management system, with CE, TÜV and GREENGUARD Gold certified components from their own manufacturers — made-to-order craftsmanship and engineering depth rarely available from off-the-shelf US suppliers.

Do you install saunas in Miami yourselves?

No. A licensed local contractor installs to our shop drawings and our engineers supervise set-out and commissioning. We supply the room, heater package and documents; North American projects are managed from our Boston office.

Infrared or Finnish sauna: what is the difference?

A Finnish sauna heats the air to 80–100 °C with a stone heater; an infrared cabin heats the body directly with panels and keeps the air at 45–60 °C.

Can a sauna stand outdoors in Miami?

Yes, with a roof, cladding chosen for salt air, a vapour barrier on the warm side and a heater sized for the room volume. We design that wall and roof build-up with your local contractor before manufacturing starts.

Barrel saunas too: we manufacture barrel cabins, and for a garden or terrace in Florida a licensed local contractor installs the barrel sauna to our drawings.

How often should I use a sauna?

That is a personal routine, not a prescription, and we do not give a session count. Anyone with a heart condition, high blood pressure or another medical condition should consult a doctor before using a sauna.

How is the price set?

By room size, heater, glass and finishes. We quote each project position by position; send the room dimensions through our contact page, and see all room types on our products page.

Sauna guide

Sauna Manufacturer in Miami: A Guide to Sauna Design, Materials and Installation

A sauna manufacturer is a company that designs and builds the sauna room itself: the timber lining, benches, heater and controls, rather than reselling a finished cabin. A Finnish sauna runs at 80–100 °C. Sauna Dekor Spa Solutions has manufactured saunas in Istanbul since 1987; for projects in Miami we ship the engineered sauna and a local contractor installs it under our supervision.

What does a sauna manufacturer in Miami build for homes and clubs?

Four room types cover most Miami projects. A steam room runs at 40–50 °C close to 100% humidity and often sits next to the sauna. A Finnish sauna runs at 80–100 °C, a bio sauna at 50–65 °C, and an infrared cabin keeps its air at 45–60 °C.

How does Miami’s humidity change the sauna build?

Warm, humid air most of the year means the build matters more than the cabin look. The room needs a continuous vapour barrier on the warm side, ventilation that changes the air while the room runs at 80–100 °C, and timber dried before fitting. See our sauna insulation guide.

  • Outdoor cabins need a roof and cladding for coastal exposure and salt air.
  • Glass fronts change the heater size; the electrical requirements are agreed with the electrician before ordering.
  • An infrared sauna cabin needs less heater power and runs at 45–60 °C.

Which timber do we use for a Miami sauna?

We build in ayous and pine, with aspen and alder on request. Ayous has few resin pockets and stays comfortable to sit on; benches are fixed from below so no screw heads sit on the upper tier at 80–100 °C. Our sauna wood guide compares the 4 timbers.

Who installs a sauna in Miami?

A licensed local contractor, working to our shop drawings: an electrician under NFPA 70 and the Florida Building Code, plus the carpenter and waterproofing trade. We do not run our own crew in the United States; our engineers supervise set-out and commissioning. Details are on our Miami and South Florida page.

In the United States we do not install with our own crew. We do not manufacture sauna heaters or steam generators; EOS and Condair do, and their certificates are theirs. Quality management: TS EN ISO 9001:2015, certificate no. 202025106.

What warranty applies?

Workmanship and manufacturing carry a 24-month warranty, the electrical and mechanical equipment carries a 24-month manufacturer’s warranty, and structure and waterproofing carry a 5-year warranty. Heaters and control units are made by their own manufacturers, such as EOS, and the product certificates for them belong to those manufacturers.
