Sauna Systems
From Finnish-type heaters to digital control panels, complete sauna systems engineered for thermal comfort in both indoor and outdoor saunas.
How to choose: Sauna Systems
A sauna is a climate room where the timber and the heater must match. A Finnish sauna runs hot and dry; an infrared cabin runs cooler and heats by direct radiation. The timber species sets the scent, the touch temperature and the lifespan; heater power sets the heat-up time and comfort.
- Volume to power ratio
- Heater output is sized to room volume; an undersized heater never reaches temperature.
- Timber species
- Cedar, spruce and thermowood differ in scent, colour and moisture resistance.
- Insulation and vapour barrier
- Without a correct barrier moisture reaches the wall and the structure degrades.
- Ventilation
- The balance of fresh-air inlet and exhaust governs both comfort and safety.
Sauna Systems: Sauna Heaters & Prices
Sauna systems are more than a cabin: the sauna heater, control panel, wood cladding and interior fittings together establish a heat balance. This category includes electric sauna heaters (from 3.5 kW to 15 kW), wood-burning stoves, digital controllers, sauna stones, wood cladding profiles and accessories.
Sauna prices are determined mainly by three items: the heater's power and brand, the cabin size and wood species (spruce, thermally treated aspen, abachi), and the control level (mechanical thermostat or a digital panel with remote access). Sauna heater prices are calculated per kW; the rule of roughly 1 kW of heater power per 1 m³ of cabin volume makes selection easier.
Frequently asked questions
How many kW should a sauna heater have?
Roughly 1 kW for each m³ of cabin volume; if there is glass surface or an uninsulated wall, add 1.2 m³ for each m². A 2 × 2 × 2.1 m cabin (8.4 m³) is well suited to a 9 kW heater.
Electric sauna heater or wood-burning stove?
An electric heater is the only option for city apartments; a wood-burning stove requires a chimney and is preferred for rural and garden saunas. Heat-up time is 30-45 minutes with electric and 45-60 minutes with wood.
Should a sauna heater have a stainless steel body?
Heaters with a stainless steel body and stone compartment last more than 10 years in a humid environment; a painted sheet-metal body is cheaper but corrosion starts within 3-5 years.
Is a sauna system sold together with installation?
The heater and panel are sold on their own; for full cabin installation, a quote is given at the site survey based on dimensions and frequency of use.
