The model is designed to reach up to 76°C (170°F) within 30 to 40 minutes of time. This is a sustainable alternative to traditional saunas, noted by the brand as "the world's first fully off-grid, solar-powered sauna in the US – a radiant blend of design, innovation, and sustainability." It functions as a plug-and-play and can be installed remotely or at off-grid locations. The president of [Harvia US](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thermowood-minicube-sauna), the bran'd parent company, Jennifer Thayer notes, "We've seen growing demand from both homeowners and hospitality clients looking for energy-efficient wellness solutions. Solaris was born from that desire to pair luxury with responsibility."
