Frequently Asked Questions
Can the sauna be installed outdoors?
Yes. The Karlstad Edition is designed for both indoor and outdoor use and includes a weather-resistant exterior. For outdoor use, install on a flat, level, and non-absorbent surface such as concrete, pavers, or decking.
Do the infrared and traditional heating systems work together?
Yes. You can run either heating system individually or use both at the same time for a customized session.
What is the warm-up time?
The infrared heating system begins warming within minutes. The traditional heater reaches its target temperature in approximately 30–45 minutes, depending on ambient temperature.
Is professional installation required?
Yes. Due to the electrical requirements, we recommend installation by a licensed electrician to ensure safety and compliance with local codes.
Is there ongoing maintenance?
Clean the cedar surfaces regularly with a damp cloth. Reapply exterior water-resistant sealant annually if used outdoors. Inspect all electrical components as part of routine maintenance.
