Enjoy the Multiple Benefits of Infrared Sauna Heaters

Infrared sauna heaters are very energy efficient and often the best choice to enjoy the health benefits of home saunas. Unlike solar radiation, the rays from a far infra-red heat source are completely safe and won’t cause anything comparable to a sunburn or sun tan. The beneficial visible and invisible rays heat the body to a depth of several inches, promoting blood circulation and ridding the body of dangerous toxins.

The possible health benefits of far infrared saunas include detoxification and increased energy. The body’s metabolism speeds up which can result in weight loss. Exposure to infrared light is said to maintain cardiovascular health. The beneficial heat from an infra-red heater helps in the speedy recovery from injuries such as sprains to the joints, reduces stress, helps to improve the immune system and beautifies your skin.

Infrared technology is relatively new to saunas. A far infra-red sauna has similar health benefits as a traditional sauna less the steam. These dry heat saunas operate at lower temperatures than conventional saunas and the ceramic elements can be built right into the wall of the room. They are ideal for one or two-person home saunas measuring as little as 3’ x 3’ x 6’ and are available as 110V or 220V systems.



Pre-built modular saunas with built-in ceramic far infrared heating emitters transfer over 90% of the energy as beneficial heat directly to the human body. As you sit on the sauna bench you are only inches away from multiple heat sources which are built into the surrounding walls. Single or multiple 200 W ceramic heater elements are sufficient for most applications and are very economic to operate. For apartment renters and condo owners there is a far infra-red portable home sauna for small spaces that operates as a small appliance and can be stowed under the bed when not in use.
