How much does a sauna cost fully installed?

The sauna is the listed price. Installation depends on your site: whether you need a concrete pad, how far the sauna sits from your electrical panel, and whether your panel has room for a new 240V breaker. We price the whole job at a free on-site assessment and put it in writing before any work starts.

Do I need a concrete pad?

Outdoor saunas need a flat, solid base. A reinforced concrete pad is the best long-term option. On some sites a compacted, leveled gravel base works.

Can I plug a sauna into a normal outlet?

Traditional and hybrid saunas need a dedicated 240V circuit, 30 or 40 amps depending on the model. Our indoor infrared Plug-in saunas have 120V plug, perfect to plug into the wall.

Will it hold up to a Utah winter?

Yes. Our outdoor models are built for exterior use, and a hot sauna on a snowy night is the whole point. Expect a longer heat-up when it is very cold, and keep the path to the door clear.

How long does the whole process take?

Usually 1-2 weeks from quote to first session.

I live outside Northern Utah. Can I still buy?

Yes. Any sauna can ship as a kit to the lower 48 states. You handle unloading, site prep, assembly and electrical with local contractors.

What's the warranty?

Every sauna carries the manufacturer warranty: 5 years on electronics and 1 year on the stove.

Is sauna actually good for you?

For most healthy adults, regular sauna use is well studied and considered safe. Long-term studies link frequent use with better heart and brain health outcomes. It is not a treatment for any condition, and anyone with heart disease, low blood pressure, or who is pregnant should talk to a doctor first. Read the research.

How long does it take to heat up?

Roughly 20 minutes to full temperature in mild weather, longer on a very cold night.

What does it cost to run?

An 8 kW stove running flat out for an hour uses 8 kWh, roughly a dollar at typical Utah residential rates. The thermostat cycles the stove, so real use is usually lower.

How do I take care of it?

Sit on a towel, leave the door cracked after use so the wood dries, wipe benches with water, and replace crumbling stones yearly.
