Aqualine are especially proud to introduce to you the award winning Harvia SmartFold Bathroom Sauna, perfect for the average size bathroom where space is at a premium. No larger than an everyday walk-in shower unit or bath tub, Harvia’s SmartFold bathroom sauna folds away into itself to make the best use of your available floor space. When folded it takes up less space than the old airing cupboard at your grans house! SmartFold saunas come with folding benches which can be stored easily inside, or folded away and removed to allow for disabled access or easy cleaning.
The foldable SmartFold sauna has been welcomed with rave reviews and recently snatched the esteemed innovation award for sauna design at the Golden Wave Gala. It was also recognised for its problem solving design at FinBuild 2014.
See how user friendly and compact the SmartFold Sauna is in this video!

Aqualine are now able to offer a huge range of ‘off the shelf’ modular steam rooms from Finland’s finest sauna and steam experts Harvia. These steam rooms come in various shapes and sizes and are pre-cut ready to be easily installed. Each steam room in the Harvia modular Steam Room range is made from 60mm Extruded Polystyrene boards (XPS). These boards are not only waterproof themselves but have a polymer concrete layer on each side for added strength and durability.
Not all steam rooms were created equal. Some of our competitors over complicate and under engineer their steam rooms by using a wooden frame and 20mm XPS boards, which whilst saving themselves money, also leaves their customers with a poorly insulated, less durable steam room which requires a lot more electricity to heat. Don’t compromise on quality, stick with tried and tested Harvia Modular

Why do New Year’s resolutions always have to be something of a chore? Surely there must be a better way of improving our health and wellbeing?
Typically, we give up on our New Year’s resolutions far too early and find ourselves slightly less healthy and feeling less motivated each time the 1st of January appears on our calendars.
I’m speaking from experience here; last year I gave up caffeine for a week. The year before that I dragged myself into the drizzling darkness for a run along the canal at least twice before calling it a day.
This year I’m more determined than ever to improve my health and wellbeing, but I know myself, it has to be something I actually want to do if I’m going to make it a successful endeavour.
I started my new career at Aqualine in December and I was amazed to quickly discover how beneficial regular Infrared Sauna use can be for your health and wellbeing. I had no idea that Infrared Saunas ca

Acid damage to sauna hinges has been a problem in leisure facilities for some time. Many hotels, spas and gyms have saunas installed and most opt for full glass doors. While asthetically pleasing there’s always been one small draw back, acid. The acid in the environment often attacks the sauna hinges be it from cleaning products or chemicals in the atmosphere. The acid attacks the protective coating and it beings to peel away, leaving rusty and unattractive looking spots.
To combat this Harvia have been hard at work producing new hinges that are acid proof. The new hinges are available for all glass doors and are recommended for locations, where chloride and/or strong cleaning chemicals are used. Colour options are chrome and white.

Planning your build is the definitely the most important aspect, get it wrong here and you could be in for a frustrating or expensive experience.
Tools:
The basic tools you will need for this DIY job include: a hammer, saw, spirit level, measuring tape, sanding block, chisel, screwdriver, stapler, pliers, nail punch, circular saw, and an electric drill.

With awareness of wellness and health growing in popularity over recent years many people are looking for ways that they can incorporate a wellness facility, such as a sauna, into their home.
If an off the shelf solution will suffice then you’re all set but what if you require something more original? Bespoke saunas can be expensive but if you possess the skills to build a sauna yourself it can be a more cost effect and rewarding solution.
