5 Person Indoor Saunas

How much space is needed for a 5 person sauna?

A five-person sauna is a large and luxurious addition to your home, requiring a significant footprint. They are best suited for dedicated wellness spaces, large basements, or spacious home gyms. It is essential to carefully measure your available area, ensuring you have a level foundation and enough clearance around the sauna for assembly and ventilation.

Infrared vs. Traditional: Which is better for a large group?

Both are excellent choices for social sauna use. An infrared sauna is ideal for longer, more conversational sessions, as the gentle, deep heat is comfortable for extended periods. A traditional sauna offers that classic, high-heat and steam experience, perfect for those who enjoy a powerful and invigorating group sweat session.

What are the power requirements for a 5 person sauna?

Due to their large size and powerful heating systems, a 5-person sauna requires a dedicated 240-volt circuit. This applies to both infrared and traditional models to ensure they can heat the spacious cabin efficiently and safely. This installation must be completed by a licensed electrician.

What is the assembly process like?

Our 5-person indoor saunas arrive as a comprehensive kit with pre-fabricated panels and all necessary hardware. While designed for DIY assembly, the size and weight of the components make it a two-person job. Plan to set aside a full day to complete the project on a prepared, level surface, and you'll have a stunning centerpiece for your wellness space.
