NEW: First UK sauna pod available with gas heat β Steam & Oak Γ FinSteam
Pick "+ FinSteam Aurora 81 R11S Gas Heater" at checkout and your pod ships with engineered ventilation built for gas + a bundled FinSteam Aurora 81 R11S gas heater package β ready to light on a UK propane bottle the day it lands. Steam & Oak is the only UK retailer offering this. No electrician, no fire to tend. Hot in 15 minutes, turn a dial. The Aurora 81 is the only CE-marked electricity-free sauna gas heater on the European market (FinSteam's stated claim).
Why gas changes the equation
| Gas (new) | Electric | |
|---|---|---|
| Heat-up time | ~15 min | 30-60 min |
| Electrician / wiring | None | 32A circuit (Β£1-2k callout) |
| Off-grid / power-cut | Yes | No |
| Running cost / session | ~Β£1.50-2.00 | Β£1.75-3.25 |
| Humidity | Naturally humid | Dry until lΓΆyly |
| Safety | EU-cert, auto Oβ shut-off | Electrical |
The real cost to your first sauna β gas vs electric
An electric sauna's shelf price isn't the price to your first lΓΆyly. A 6β8 kW electric heater needs its own dedicated circuit, wired by a qualified electrician and signed off under Part P β typically Β£800βΒ£1,500, plus the wait to get one booked. The FinSteam gas heater connects to a UK propane bottle outside, like a patio heater: no dedicated circuit, no electrician for portable use, and it's hot on the day it arrives.
| Electric (from) | Gas (FinSteam) | |
|---|---|---|
| Pod + heater | Β£5,995 (BC60 incl.) | Β£7,990 |
| Electrician β dedicated circuit + Part P | Β£800βΒ£1,500 | Β£0 |
| Ready to use | After wiring is booked + signed off | Day of delivery |
| Real total | Β£6,795βΒ£7,495 | Β£7,990 |
The ~Β£2,000 gap on the shelf narrows to roughly Β£500βΒ£1,200 once the electrician is in the sum β and the gas sauna doesn't wait on a sparky's diary. (Portable use needs no Gas Safe engineer; a fixed install does. A standard UK 13 kg Calor propane bottle runs the heater for a dozen-plus sessions.)
What "gas-ready" means β engineered vents built into the cabin
The gas variant ships with wooden louvre vents at the FinSteam-specified sizes built into the pod: intake β₯350 cmΒ² low next to the heater (fresh air from outside), exhaust β₯250 cmΒ² high in the opposite corner (discharged to outside). FinSteam exclude plastic disc / twist valves β the gas variant doesn't have those. Vent + heater certified together under EU Reg 2016/426. Electric variants ship with the standard vent set for an electric heater.
What's in the gas variant package
- Pod shell + bench + frosted glass door β same build as the electric variants of this model.
- Engineered gas-ready ventilation built in.
- FinSteam Aurora 81 R11S gas heater β 8.1 kW, AENOR-tested under Reg 2016/426. ODS auto-shutoff + flame monitoring. Includes Orbis 11 stone cage + Halo safety rail + Njord heat shield as standard.
- UK propane regulator + 1.2 m CE-marked gas hose.
- 40 kg pre-washed FinSteam sauna stones.
Aurora R11S standalone retail Β£2,295 β gas variant bundles at Β£7,990 inc VAT. More on the Aurora 81.
What you'll need to source locally
- Standard UK 13 kg Calor propane bottle.
- Gas Safe registered engineer for the gas connection on a fixed install.
