An installation crew comes to your address on a scheduled appointment, checks the site is ready, unpacks the sauna, assembles it in the position you have chosen, tests that it heats and the controls work, and takes every piece of packaging away with them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKohler recommends a professional installer for both of these saunas. Assembly needs a minimum of two people, and a C2 arrives as roughly 2,300–2,900 lbs of panels on one or two pallets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rate is flat per sauna line — it does not change with cabin size, wood finish, or floor option.

The sauna's cord is 9'10\" and exits the top rear, so the outlet has to stay reachable after the cabin is built.
