The result is the deep sweat, the muscle relaxation, the breathing pattern — none of which infrared replicates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuild + finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExterior:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crystal Culture Stone finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterior:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cabin walls with aspen-style benching\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Traditional electric stove with stone basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tempered glass door\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLighting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Interior lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indoor only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCabin, door, interior benches, traditional stove with stone basket, sauna ventilation valve, instructions, comes with UK warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDelivery \u0026amp; site preparation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard delivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Free standard UK delivery is included.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSite:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indoor saunas need a level floor with clear access route from front door to final placement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectrical:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6kW heater on a dedicated 32A single-phase supply, fitted by a qualified electrician.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVentilation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sauna ventilation valve included; ambient room ventilation still needs consideration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 person\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indoor only\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeater type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Traditional electric stone heater\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Comes with UK warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 454067\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e💡 Not sure if this is the right sauna for you?
