The Kohler C2 Outdoor Sauna brings the ritual of traditional Finnish-style bathing into your backyard with the premium materials, refined engineering, and meticulous finish you expect from a brand with 150+ years of wellness heritage. Available in 3-, 5-, and 6-person configurations, the C2 is built for year-round outdoor use with a freestanding installation that adapts to any yard or garden setting.
Douglas Fir outside, Scandinavian spruce inside
The exterior is clad in Douglas Fir, a naturally dense and weather-resistant wood with a warm, organic aesthetic that looks at home in any outdoor setting. Inside, premium Scandinavian spruce walls create a bright, welcoming atmosphere from the moment you step in. The obeche wood bench and matching backrest are paired with 2700K warm white indirect lighting positioned behind the seat soft, ambient illumination that never competes with the heat for your attention.
Built for serious outdoor heat retention
The C2 does not cut corners on thermal performance. Tempered glass door and windows pair with 2.1" thick mineral wool insulation between the wall sections and rubber seals at every joint, creating a tight thermal envelope for consistent, long sessions. Extended roof eaves protect the structure from direct rain and snow, and a triple-insulated roof with two layers of mineral wool, an air gap, and a waterproof EPDM membrane prevent heat loss from above. The FERO electric heater with sauna stones and heater guard delivers authentic traditional heat and dual thermostatic control keeps every session safe and repeatable.
Smart controls and ventilation done right
An externally mounted digital control panel handles temperature, session time, and backrest lighting adjustable without interrupting your session. The panel features a lockable cover that protects it from the elements and unauthorized use between sessions. The Aerotherm ventilation system maintains a steady supply of fresh oxygen and proper air exchange throughout, keeping the air breathable even at peak heat. The C2 is designed for freestanding installation, providing full flexibility for placement in any outdoor space.
Premium Douglas Fir exterior, Scandinavian spruce interior, and a FERO electric heater included the Kohler C2 delivers traditional outdoor sauna performance in 3-, 5-, and 6-person sizes, with mineral wool insulation, tempered glass, Aerotherm ventilation, and a triple-insulated roof. Backed by Kohler's 150+ year heritage and 5-year limited warranty.
