Sauna Accessories
What every sauna build needs - the functional sauna accessories.
Four sub-categories cover the things every sauna actually needs to work properly.
Sauna lighting - heat-rated electric sauna lights, Leisurecraft SaunaGlo LED strip sets in 43 and 72 inch lengths, and cedar light shades. These aren't ordinary household fixtures; they're rated to operate in the 120°C heat that standard lights would fail in. Every sauna needs at least one.
Thermometers and sand timers - the Narvi Black thermometer-and-sand-timer pair in modern matte black with birch wood detail, plus traditional cedar wall-mount thermometers and a 15-minute cedar sand timer. Tracking session time and temperature is what separates a sauna from a hot room. Available in Celsius and Fahrenheit.
Headrests and backrests - cedar ergonomic supports for longer sessions. The standard headrest fits the back of a bench, the Comfort back rest is convex for general support, and the Elite is concave for lumbar. Plus, a cedar bottle shelf for water bottles and oils within reach.
Wood finishes - Livos Alis 3-in-1 oil, stain, and sealer in five colours (Black, Light Teak, Bongossi, Sesame, plus Natural), and Meldos Natural Sauna Oil in 2.5 litre size. Outdoor saunas need a finish; without one, cedar weathers grey within a year of Canadian winters. Livos is German-made and non-toxic, which matters because most generic wood stains aren't safe for sauna heat.
What turns a sauna into a ritual - the experience accessories.
The other four sub-categories cover the parts of the loyly ritual: the pouring, the steam, the scent, the sit.
Sauna buckets and ladles - cedar wooden sets, the Narvi Black 6.5L aluminum bucket with birch handle, the Rento copper bucket with ladle (4L, made in Finland), the Loyly Flow ladle, and the Relax sauna whisk handmade in Finland from recyclable plastic (suitable for buyers with birch allergies). The pouring is the ritual; these are what you pour with.
Essences and cleaners - 4oz lavender and eucalyptus essential oils for occasional sessions, Nystad birch scent sachets from Finland (birch leaf, birch and lavender, birch and peppermint) for the traditional loyly infusion, Sauna Menthol crystals for a sharper, cooler steam, and 1-gallon Club Aroma concentrates for high-volume use. Plus Spa Partners wood cleaner and a 750ml sauna room cleaner for upkeep.
Soapstone accessories - 13 products from Hukka Design, all hand-crafted from Northern Karelian soapstone in Finland. Hoyrykivet steam stones that stabilize humidity, the Saunakko aroma cup, the Maininki thermometer-hygrometer, the Saunatroikka fountain that activates from heater rising heat, the Makkaraputki sausage pipe (yes, you cook sausages on the heater), and the sauna elves Elli and Tahvo who sit between the rocks.
Textiles - Rento and Jokipiin towels, bathrobes, and Manty (pine) sauna seat covers in single and double sizes. Linen-cotton blends made in Finland, naturally antimicrobial, hold up to repeated wash cycles. Linen absorbs twenty times its weight in water and dries fast.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What sauna accessories do I actually need to get started?
Four things, honestly: a heat-rated light, a thermometer, a way to pour water on the stones (a bucket and a ladle), and the stones themselves. Everything else on the page is either ritual (essences, soapstone, textiles, whisks) or comfort upgrade (headrests, backrests, sand timers). The functional minimum is a small list; the experience layer is where most buyers gradually add over time.
Are your sauna accessories safe to use at high temperatures?
Yes - everything on the page is sourced or designed for sauna conditions. The lights are rated to 120°C, the textiles are linen-cotton blends that wash and dry without breaking down, the soapstone and cedar pieces handle direct heat exposure on the stones, and the wood finishes are non-toxic once cured. Standard household versions of these items - regular light fixtures, cotton towels, untested wood stains - aren't safe in sauna heat and humidity.
What's the difference between sauna oils, birch scents, menthol crystals, and concentrates?
Four formats for four use cases. 4 oz essential oils (lavender, eucalyptus) are pure essences for occasional home use - a few drops in the loyly water. Nystad birch scent sachets from Finland are biodegradable tea-bag style infusions for the traditional Finnish loyly ritual. Sauna Menthol crystals are 100% natural mint, sprinkled directly onto hot stones for a sharper, cooler steam with a long-lasting effect after the session. 1-gallon Club Aroma concentrates are for high-volume or commercial use, sprayed onto stones or fed through a Nano automatic unit.
Do you ship sauna accessories across Canada?
Yes - everything on the page ships Canada-wide from our warehouse in Ontario.
