Atlantic Pool & Spa

Atlantic Pool & Spa in Conway sells and installs saunas and hot tubs rather than operating a facility you can visit.

The Mount Washington Valley is a sensible market for this. The area holds a high concentration of second homes, ski chalets and mountain properties, and the climate makes a private sauna genuinely useful rather than decorative — White Mountain winters are severe, and a hot room earns its keep from November through April.

The decisions that determine whether a home sauna is good are mostly invisible once it is built. Heater output has to match room volume or the space never holds temperature. Stone mass determines whether water produces a real burst of löyly or a thin hiss. Ventilation determines whether the air stays breathable through a long session. Bench height sets how much of the room’s heat gradient you can use, and the difference between top and bottom bench in a well-built room is substantial.

Cedar and hemlock are the standard interior woods because they resist warping under heat and humidity cycling and stay cool to touch.
