KeiCo 160 Outdoor Terrace Barrel Sauna
Compact Nordic Sauna Design for Smaller Outdoor Spaces
The KeiCo KC 160 Compact Outdoor Barrel Sauna brings Nordic sauna design to gardens, courtyards and poolside settings where space matters. Its rounded solid-timber chamber creates an intimate environment without the footprint of a conventional garden sauna cabin.
Designed primarily for one or two adults, the KC 160 combines facing benches, a toughened-glass entrance and three controlled configurations. Choose self-installation, or let KeiCo coordinate the base, installation, heater and aftercare.
Choose Your KC 160
Nordic Spruce
A naturally light timber finish for a clear, stained or painted exterior. Spruce must receive an appropriate protective treatment after installation unless a factory-applied finish is selected.
Thermowood
Heat-modified Nordic timber with a deeper tone, improved dimensional stability and lower maintenance requirements. Untreated Thermowood will gradually weather to a silver-grey patina; a suitable pigmented treatment helps retain its warmer colour.
Panoramic Glass Thermowood
A made-to-order configuration with expanded safety glazing for increased daylight and a stronger connection to the landscape. The precise glass arrangement is confirmed in your written order specification.
