Exclusions from the Return & Refund Policy
Aroma Oils & Menthol Crystals: To ensure the quality and safety of these items, aroma oils and menthol crystals are NOT returnable under any circumstances.
Sauna Rooms & Wood: Pre-cut, Pre-fabricated, Modular, Two-piece, Infrared, Pre-built, Custom Cut and Designer Sauna Rooms, along with any type of wood, are cut to order and consequently are NOT returnable items.
Sauna Heaters: Please note that sauna heaters are NOT returnable. If there is an issue with your sauna heater when it arrives, please contact us immediately for assistance. We're here to help resolve any issues.
Steam Diffusers: Steam Diffusers may not fit your steam head, are aesthetically unattractive, will noticeably wear, crack and fade with normal use and are a consumable component. Due to the specific use and nature of steam diffusers, they are NOT returnable items.

Missing accessories: The value of missing items will be deducted from the credit amount of a return. For even exchanges, we will exchange what is returned (e.g., box for box, manual for manual, etc.) In some cases, missing accessories or components may render the product useless and, consequently, may not be returnable.
