4 Person Traditional Saunas

What size is a 4 person traditional sauna?

A 4 person traditional sauna is rated for four adults, and the room size depends on the model. SunRay lists the Charleston 400TN indoor cabin at 71 by 63 inches and 80 inches tall and says its two-tier benches seat four or let two people stretch out, which suits a couple that hosts. Dundalk LeisureCraft rates the Studio indoor sauna for 2–4 people at 84.75 by 64.75 inches and the Palmer outdoor cabin for four, with an 84 by 60 inch room inside. SunRay's Galley 400SH barrel measures 72 by 72 inches.

Freight within the contiguous United States is included on the SunRay, Dundalk LeisureCraft, True North and Finnmark 4 person traditional saunas, and freight for ThermaSol saunas is quoted per order. Compare models with heater and freight added: one sold without a heater needs a package, and SaunaLife bills its own freight charge on every SaunaLife sauna.

Electric and wood-burning heat in 4 person traditional saunas

SunRay, ThermaSol and Finnmark include the heater with their 4 person traditional saunas, the shortlist for a buyer who wants the heater settled. SunRay fits a 6 kW Harvia electric heater in most of its models here, and ThermaSol a Harvia Virta of 8 or 9 kW in each of its cabins.

Fourteen of the 4 person traditional saunas, from SaunaLife, Dundalk LeisureCraft and True North, are priced without a heater: the buyer adds a package on the product page, and Topture's Recommended choice there is a 6, 7.5 or 9 kW HUUM DROP electric heater, or a HUUM HIVE Mini 6 kW on the SaunaLife GL4. Eight models also take a Harvia M3 wood stove kit: the SaunaLife G2, six Dundalk LeisureCraft models and the True North 6' barrel; the Dundalk MiniPOD adds a HUUM HIVE Wood 13 kW package.

HUUM's US manual lists the DROP 9 kW at 37.5 amps, the DROP 7.5 kW at 31.25 amps and the DROP 6 kW at 25 amps on a 240 V supply. SunRay lists its 4 person models for 220 V. Your licensed electrician sizes the breaker and wire from the manual that ships with the heater and your local code.

Delivery and assembly of a 4 person traditional sauna

SunRay, SaunaLife, Dundalk LeisureCraft and True North ship their 4 person traditional saunas as kits to assemble on site. ThermaSol delivers the Spectra, Fortis and Vue fully assembled on a flatbed trailer, placed with a forklift or crane, and says the Aalto and Astra indoor saunas arrive as pre-assembled panels, and its installation manuals call for 2 to 4 people to assemble them. Freight delivery is curbside on a booked appointment, so raise site-access questions before you order.
