The Norge Sauna Co.: hybrid saunas and ice baths with Nordic tradition

The Norge Sauna Co. is an Australian company dedicated to the design and sale of Nordic-inspired saunas and ice baths. Its catalogue is built around two main products: the Stillhet Kube hybrid sauna and the Norge N-02 ice bath. The company operates from a showroom in Somerton Park, South Australia, and distributes its products with delivery and installation across the country.

Stillhet Kube: hybrid sauna with stone heat and infrared

The Stillhet Kube is a cabin that integrates two heat systems in a single unit. On one hand, it incorporates a Harvia Cilindro stone heater in a black finish, with a full column of sauna stones that allows water to be poured to generate steam and achieve authentic Finnish löyly. On the other, it features low-EMF far infrared elements from the Incoloy brand, built into the walls. Both systems operate alternately, never simultaneously, so the cabin only draws the power of the larger heater and not the sum of both.

The model is offered in three sizes: 2, 4 and 6 people, in white and black finishes. The stone heater output is matched to the cabin size: 6.8 kW in the 2-person version and 9 kW in the 4-person version. The temperature reaches up to 90, 95 or 100 °C depending on size, in dry or steam mode. The infrared, for its part, consists of 7, 14 or 17 elements of 400 W each, with a total output of 2.8, 5.6 or 6.8 kW depending on the cabin, and allows longer sessions at lower air temperatures, up to 65, 70 or 75 °C. Control is via a 2-in-1 WiFi touchscreen developed by the company itself.

Norge N-02: ice bath that cools and heats

The Norge N-02 is a marine-grade stainless steel bath that can cool and heat in the same chassis, with a temperature range of 0 to 40 °C. It runs on a 10 A outlet and a drain, and produces a sound level of 50 dB. The company presents it as a unit designed to last for decades and to cover both protocols, cold and heat, in a single unit.

Three ways to use it and a session method

The firm describes three usage patterns for the Kube. The first combines 20 to 25 minutes of infrared followed by 10 to 15 minutes of stone heat, aimed at post-workout recovery. The second is an infrared-only session of 20 to 30 minutes, at a lower air temperature and with a longer stay. The third is the traditional ritual, with 10 to 20 minutes of stone heat only and the option of pouring water over the stones to generate steam. The company notes that these are suggested patterns and that each user can adjust the duration and intensity according to their comfort and experience.

The general method proposed by the company is structured in four steps: 15 minutes of heat, 3 minutes of cold, rest and repeat. In daily use, it suggests scenarios such as a short morning session with the N-02, a heat and cold session after training with the same unit, or a Sunday ritual alternating a long sauna and a short cold plunge with the Kube and the N-02.

Pricing, delivery and installation

The catalogue indicates a starting price of AUD 14,995 for the Kube sauna and AUD 8,799 for the Norge N-02 ice bath, in both cases with GST included, delivery and installation. The company maintains that the price is the finished product: it includes delivery, installation, commissioning and a usage demonstration, as well as the warranty and taxes. Delivery and installation are included within a 50 km radius of a capital city centre; for regional areas, delivery bands from AUD 650 apply, which are shown at checkout. The customer only needs to arrange a licensed electrician for the final connection.

The company details that each unit includes white glove delivery, professional installation, commissioning and a product walkthrough, assembly and testing of each heater and control, a 5-year warranty and GST included. The company contrasts this approach with typical sauna kits, which according to its description are limited to a heater in a box and a list of trades to hire at the buyer's expense.

Product guide and advice

The company offers a sixteen-page product guide for each model, with specifications, electrical requirements, package contents, delivery and warranty. The available guides correspond to the Kube in its 2, 4 and 6-person versions and to the N-02. In addition, the company offers a twenty-minute consultation, by phone, video call or in person, to analyse the customer's space and determine which product fits, with no pressure and no set script.
