Traditional Saunas — FAQs

What is a traditional sauna and how does it work?

A traditional sauna uses an electric or wood-fired stove to heat stones that radiate dry heat. Water may be poured on the stones to create steam, raising humidity and intensifying the session.

Are traditional saunas safe?

Yes for most healthy adults. Sessions should be limited to safe durations (typically 15–30 minutes) with hydration before and after. Individuals with cardiovascular or respiratory conditions should consult a physician first.

What is the difference between a traditional sauna and an infrared sauna?

Traditional saunas heat the air and stones to create a high-temperature environment, while infrared saunas use infrared heaters to directly warm the body. Traditional models usually reach higher temperatures and offer a more intense heat experience.

Can I install a traditional sauna at home?

Yes. Many models are designed for residential installation and can be placed indoors or outdoors. Installation requires a level surface, ventilation, and a power connection matching the unit specifications.

How hot does a traditional sauna get?

Most operate between 150–190°F (65–90°C), though temperatures can be adjusted for comfort. Adding steam by pouring water on the stones increases humidity and perceived heat.

How often should I use a sauna?

Many people benefit from 3–5 sessions per week, lasting 15–30 minutes each. Frequency depends on goals such as recovery, relaxation, or cardiovascular health.

What about delivery, warranty, and support?

All of our saunas include manufacturer warranties, shipping options, and after-purchase support. Details vary by model and are outlined on each product page.
