That's a boat stove. Dickinson is a good company. They've been in the business for quite a while and make parts for shielding and venting the stove. I've recommended this to some tiny home owners.

I like it. I saw it in a truck camper (on line). He had it mounted at the back up mid high, and then the vent went up and out. They seem to be very good looking. I guess they are meant to be mounted on a wall if they are used on boats. All you would need is a 12V blower to circulate the heat.
It's a small stove, max output of 8,000 btus. The sauna should be tight and well insulated. Otherwise, maybe look at something like the Drolet Spark or Fox, watching clearances carefully and shielding where necessary.
With an output like that, you could easily tell if it’s large enough by putting an electric space heater in there. They’ll produce about 5000 btu hour after hour.
The stove’s max output isn’t a linear 8000 btu. You MAY get it to peak there, but most of the burn would be quite a bit less than that.
