Key Features & Why They Matter

• Wall-Mounted Stainless-Steel Body in Chrome

  Durable and rust-resistant, this design blends easily with most sauna styles while preserving floor space.

• Dual-Wall Design Keeps Exterior Cooler

  The outer surface stays relatively cool, which brings added safety when the heater is mounted close by.

  Stones sit right against the heating elements to deliver smooth, radiant warmth that lasts.

  Measures approximately 16″ wide × 11″ deep × 24″ tall—great for residential saunas.

Is that enough heat for my home sauna?
Absolutely—it’s ideal for saunas up to about 210 cubic feet, so it fits most standard home spaces well

Do I need a separate controller?
No—you’ll only use the built-in dials on the unit. It manages temperature and timing all from one place.

How do the heating stones work?
Stack the stones loosely on the grill so air circulates. That helps keep heating smooth and protects the elements

Is the outside hot to the touch?
Not really—the dual-wall construction keeps the surface cooler, so it won’t burn if touched lightly.
