THE SETUP

Trailer-mounted 8-foot hot room with 4-foot deck

Ember pairs an 8-foot hot room that fits up to six people with a 4-foot exterior deck on a trailer, giving a compact but usable footprint for temporary installations on private property.

THE HEAT

Wood-fire stove and traditional hot-cold cycles

Heat comes from a Kastor Karhu 20 wood-fire stove; sessions are typically paired with cold-water dips or sprays via a garden hose, shower or other cold-water source to cycle between temperatures.

THE SITING

Delivered to private driveways, farms, cabins and lake houses

The mobile design is intended for placement at private properties—driveways, rural lots, or waterfront cabins—making Ember a flexible option where on-site cold-water access is available.
