What an Almost Heaven sauna lists besides the sticker

The Salem is the worked example because its Select page prints a price, a 6 kW heater and a 30-amp line, and it describes LTL shipping rather than a flatbed. On 1 Nov 2026, 09:03 CET that price was $4,176. This page adds only figures copied from Select’s policy, FAQ or product pages. It does not invent an electrician’s bill or a concrete pad.

Figures that are on the pages

ItemWhat the page says
Salem priceSelect’s variant price on 1 Nov 2026, 09:03 CET: $4,176. Heater on that listing: Harvia KIP60B, 6 kW, 240V, 30-amp, hard-wire.
Shipping, FAQ“We ship free to the continental US and Canada.” Exception: “Flatbed (FTL – Full Truckload) shipments. We charge $1,299 for FTL shipments.”
Shipping policyFree shipping on most US orders. “Canada - $899 CAD flat-rate freight.” The FAQ and the shipping policy do not describe Canada the same way.
Salem freight typeSelect’s Salem text says the model ships by LTL truck, curbside, on one pallet. It does not call the Salem a flatbed, and it does not print $1,299.
Flatbed models we openedTimberline: “The Timberline will ship via a flatbed truck.” Lewisburg: “The Lewisburg will ship via a flatbed truck.” Shenandoah: “The Shenandoah will ship via a flatbed truck.” The $1,299 line is on the FAQ, not on those product pages.
ReturnsRefund policy: “Almost Heaven Saunas: Return for any reason, within 30 days of receipt. A 20% restocking fee will apply.”

Electricity example, not a bill

Formula: kilowatts × hours × dollars per kilowatt-hour. Example only: the Salem’s listed 6 kW heater, run for 1 hour, at an assumed 0.1816 dollars per kWh. That rate is the U.S. average residential price this site uses in the sauna electricity calculator (EIA Electric Power Monthly, August 2026 data). 6 × 1 × 0.1816 = 1.0896 dollars for that one hour. It is not your utility’s rate, and it is not added to the sticker above. If the heater cycles, the hours are the hours it draws that power, not the hours you sit.

Source for the rate: EIA Table 5.6.A.
