RULES
NO PURCHASE OR PAYMENT OF ANY KIND IS NECESSARY TO
ENTER, WIN OR CLAIM A PRIZE.
The Almost Heaven Saunas® Share the Heat Giveaway
(“Promotion”) is sponsored by Harvia US Inc., 11261 Jams Street, Holland, MI
49424 (“Sponsor”).
1. PROMOTION PERIOD: The Promotion starts on September 22, 2026 at
approximately 12:00 PM Eastern Time (“ET”) and ends on September 30, 2026 at
12:00 PM ET (“Promotion Period”). Sponsor’s computer is the official Promotion
clock. Proof of submitting an entry does not constitute proof of receipt.
2. ELIGIBILITY: The Promotion is open only to legal residents of the fifty (50) United
States and District of Columbia who are at least the age of majority or older
in their state or district of residence at the time of entry. This eligibility
requirement applies both to the entrant and to the individual an entrant
nominates under Section 3 below. Employees of Sponsor and its respective
parent, subsidiary, and affiliate companies and advertising, promotion and
production agencies (collectively, “Promotion Entities”), and the members of
each of their immediate family (i.e., spouse, parent, child, sibling, and the
“steps” of each) and persons living in the same household of each are not
eligible to enter, be nominated, or win. All applicable federal, state and
local laws and regulations apply. Void where prohibited or restricted by law.
Participation consists of entrant’s full and unconditional agreement to these
Official Rules and Sponsor’s decisions, which are final and binding in all
matters related to the Promotion. Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling
all requirements set forth herein. Each entrant and each Nominee may be
required to furnish proof of identification and other proof of eligibility
under these Official Rules.
3. HOW TO PARTICIPATE: During the Promotion Period, an eligible entrant may
receive one (1) entry in the Promotion by visiting the Almost Heaven Saunas
website (“Website”), signing up for the Almost Heaven newsletter with the
entrant’s first name, last name, and email address, and providing the first
name, last name, and email address of one (1) other individual whom the entrant
wishes to nominate to receive the second prize described in Section 5 below
(“Nominee”). There is no newsletter-subscription requirement for the entrant;
however, only an individual who is a new subscriber to the Almost Heaven
newsletter is eligible to be designated as a Nominee. If the individual
nominated by an entrant is already subscribed to the Almost Heaven newsletter
at the time of entry, that entire entry is void and not eligible to win. To
complete a valid entry, both the entrant and the Nominee must separately
complete Sponsor’s opt-in confirmation process (e.g., confirming their
respective email addresses and agreeing to receive communications from
Sponsor). An entry is not valid, and is not eligible to win, unless and until
both the entrant and the Nominee have completed this opt-in confirmation.
Incomplete entries, or entries that do not include a validly designated and
opted-in Nominee, will be invalid. Each entry consists of one (1) entrant and
that entrant’s one (1) Nominee as a single, linked, and indivisible entry, as
further described in Sections 4 through 6 below. Limit one (1) entry per
person. The same individual may be designated as a Nominee by more than one
entrant; being designated as a Nominee by another entrant does not, by itself,
count against that individual’s own one-entry limit if they also choose to
enter the Promotion on their own behalf. If it is discovered that an entrant
has used multiple emails to register or attempt to register more than once
during the Promotion Period, all of that entrant’s entries and any associated
Nominee designation may be declared null and void, and the entrant may not be
eligible to win a prize.
4. RANDOM DRAWING: Shortly following the Promotion Period, Sponsor will randomly select
one (1) potential winning entry from among all eligible entries received during
the Promotion Period. Only entries for which both the entrant and the Nominee
have completed the opt-in confirmation described in Section 3 above prior to
the end of the Promotion Period are eligible entries; if either the entrant or
the Nominee has not completed the required opt-in confirmation, their joint
entry is invalid and will not be included in the drawing. The entrant
associated with the selected entry (“Potential Winner”) and that entrant’s
validly nominated Nominee (“Potential Nominee”) will together constitute one
(1) potential winning pair (“Potential Winning Pair”). Sponsor will notify the
Potential Winner and Potential Nominee separately using the contact information
provided with the entry and will provide instructions for completing
verification and claiming the prizes. Selection in the drawing does not create
a right to either prize. Both members of the Potential Winning Pair must timely
respond, remain eligible, comply with these Official Rules, and complete all
required verification steps before either prize will be awarded.
5. PRIZE, APPROXIMATE RETAIL VALUE (“ARV”) AND ODDS OF
WINNING: A. Prize: One (1) verified
Winner will receive one (1) Bridgeport Sauna, and that Winner’s verified
Nominee will receive one (1) Bridgeport Sauna, for a combined total of two (2)
Bridgeport Saunas awarded under this Promotion, with a combined Approximate
Retail Value of $15,248.00 (approximately $7,624.00 per unit). The two prizes
are linked to a single winning entry and will be awarded only after both
members of the Potential Winning Pair have been verified. The prizes are not
severable for purposes of winner verification or forfeiture.
B. Odds of Winning and Limitations: The odds of
winning depend on the total number of eligible entries received during the
Promotion Period. Only one (1) winning entry (consisting of one (1) Winner and
one (1) Nominee) will be selected, for a total of two (2) prizes awarded. Each
prize must be accepted as awarded, and each prize is awarded “AS IS.” Prize
consists only of items specifically listed as part of the prize or as agreed
upon by Sponsor in writing. Certain conditions and restrictions may apply, specifically
including without limitation any restrictions included in the prize packaging.
All costs and expenses not specified herein, related to a prize or incurred by
accepting a prize — including, without limitation, any costs of delivery,
installation, or assembly not expressly provided by Sponsor — are the sole
responsibility of the recipient. Winner and Nominee each agree to contact the
manufacturer and not the Sponsor if there are any defects or issues with their
respective prize.
6. HOW TO CLAIM THE PRIZES; PAIR VERIFICATION AND
FORFEITURE: Before either member of a
Potential Winning Pair is declared a winner, both the Potential Winner and
Potential Nominee may be required to execute an Affidavit of
Eligibility/Liability & Publicity Release and tax acknowledgment
(“Affidavit”). If requested, each member must return a fully executed and
notarized Affidavit to Sponsor or its authorized designee by the deadline
stated in the Affidavit materials. Each member of the Potential Winning Pair
must respond to Sponsor within five (5) calendar days after Sponsor’s first
attempt to contact that individual. During that five-day period, Sponsor will
make at least three (3) documented attempts to contact any non-responsive
member using the email address provided with the entry. Sponsor may also use
other contact information provided with the entry. If one member responds and
the other has not responded after Sponsor’s second contact attempt, Sponsor
will notify the responsive member that the other member’s continued failure to
respond may invalidate the entire selected entry and result in forfeiture of
both prizes. That notice does not extend either individual’s response or
documentation deadline. The entrant is responsible for nominating an individual
the entrant can contact and for encouraging that Nominee to respond promptly.
If either member of the Potential Winning Pair (a) fails to respond within the
required five-day period; (b) fails to timely return any required Affidavit or
other verification document; (c) is disqualified, ineligible, or not in compliance
with these Official Rules; (d) declines a prize; or (e) cannot accept or use a
prize for any reason, then the entire Potential Winning Pair will be
disqualified, the selected entry will be invalidated, and both prizes will be
forfeited. No prize will be awarded separately to the responsive or otherwise
eligible member of a disqualified Potential Winning Pair. Sponsor may, in its
sole discretion, select one (1) alternate potential winning entry by random
drawing from among the remaining eligible entries. The entrant and Nominee
associated with any alternate entry must complete the same verification and
claim process and will be subject to the same deadlines and pair-forfeiture
provisions. Once both members of a Potential Winning Pair satisfy all requirements
of this Section, Sponsor will declare them the “Winner” and “Nominee,”
respectively, and each will be entitled to receive their respective prize
described in Section 5. Sponsor will retain records of its contact attempts,
responses received, required verification documents, and any determination that
a Potential Winning Pair has been disqualified. Each Potential Winner and
Potential Nominee may be required to furnish proof of identification and other
proof of eligibility under these Official Rules. The right to receive a prize
is non-assignable and non-transferable, and no prize substitution, exchange, or
cash equivalent will be allowed, except that Sponsor reserves the right to
substitute a prize of equal or greater value in its sole discretion for any reason.
Federal, state, and local taxes, if any, are solely the responsibility of the
recipient of each respective prize.
7. DELIVERY / ASSEMBLY PHOTO REQUEST: Sponsor kindly requests that each Winner and Nominee
submit to Sponsor one (1) photograph of their respective Bridgeport Sauna being
delivered or assembled at their home, to help Sponsor verify and celebrate
delivery of the prizes. Submitting a photograph is entirely optional and is not
a condition of participating in the Promotion or of receiving a prize: no
Winner’s or Nominee’s prize will be forfeited, withheld, delayed, or otherwise
affected for declining to submit a photograph. Any photograph voluntarily
submitted under this Section is subject to the Publicity Rights granted in
Section 12 below.
8. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: Promotion Entities are not responsible for illegible,
lost, late, incomplete, stolen, misdirected, postage due, or undeliverable
electronic messages or postal mail; or for any computer, telephone, satellite,
cable, network, electronic or Internet hardware or software malfunctions,
failures, connections, or availability, or garbled, corrupt or jumbled
transmissions, service provider/Internet/web site/use net accessibility,
availability, or traffic congestion, or any technical, mechanical, printing, or
typographical or other error, or unauthorized human intervention, or the
incorrect or inaccurate capture of entry information, or the failure to
capture, or loss of, any such information. Promotion Entities are not
responsible for any incorrect or inaccurate information, whether caused by any
web site users, tampering, hacking, or by any of the equipment or programming
associated with or utilized in the Promotion and assume no responsibility for
any error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or
transmission, communications line failure, technical error, theft or
destruction or unauthorized access to any web site(s). Promotion Entities are
not responsible for any injury, including death, or damage, whether personal or
property, to participants, Nominees, or to any person’s computer related to or
resulting from participating in the Promotion and/or accepting a prize. If, for
any reason, an entry is confirmed to have been erroneously deleted, lost or
otherwise destroyed, corrupted or for any other reason not accepted as an entry
into the Promotion, the entrant’s sole remedy is to submit another entry. If,
for any reason, the Promotion is not capable of running as planned, Sponsor
reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to cancel, terminate, modify or
suspend the Promotion and/or proceed with the Promotion in a manner it deems
fair and reasonable including the selection of winners from among eligible
entries received prior to such cancellation, termination, modification or
suspension. In no event will more prizes be awarded than are stated in these
Official Rules. If for any reason, including, but not limited to, an
administrative, printing, production, computer or other error or due to
technical difficulties or incorrect announcements of any kind, more winning
notices are distributed than are intended to be awarded according to these
Official Rules, the prize winners will be awarded in a random drawing from
among all verified prize notices received for that prize.

Who can enter?
Who can enter?
This giveaway is open to legal residents of the 50 United States and Washington, D.C. who are at least 18 (the age of majority in their state) at the time of entry. To enter, you sign up for the Almost Heaven newsletter and nominate one other person — a friend, family member, whoever you'd like to win the second sauna — but that nominee must be someone who isn't already subscribed to the newsletter. Both you and your nominee will need to complete a separate opt-in confirmation for the entry to count. Employees of Harvia US Inc. (and its parent, subsidiary, and affiliate companies, plus their immediate family members and household members) aren't eligible to enter or be nominated. Each person can submit one entry, though the same person can be nominated by more than one entrant.
How will the winner be selected?
How will the winner be selected?
Shortly after the Promotion Period ends, Sponsor will randomly draw one winning entry from all eligible entries — meaning entries where both the entrant and their nominee completed the required opt-in. The entrant and their nominee are then notified separately and must each verify their eligibility (which may include signing an Affidavit) within five days of Sponsor's first attempt to reach them; Sponsor will make at least three documented attempts to contact anyone who doesn't respond right away. Because the two prizes are tied to a single entry, both the entrant and their nominee have to complete verification for either sauna to be awarded — if either one fails to respond, doesn't qualify, or declines, the entire entry is disqualified and both prizes are forfeited, with Sponsor able to draw an alternate entry in its place.
How will I know if I win?
How will I know if I win?
