What is the difference between a traditional and an infrared sauna?

A traditional sauna heats the air with a stove; an infrared sauna warms your body directly with infrared panels at a lower air temperature.

How much does a home sauna cost?

Home saunas typically range from about $3,000 for a compact model to $15,000 or more for a large outdoor sauna.

Yes. Many saunas are designed for basements, garages or spare rooms; you need a level floor and the right electrical supply.

Most people enjoy 10 to 20 minutes per session; start shorter and listen to your body.

Wipe the benches after use, sit on a towel, and scrub the wood lightly with water and mild soap every few weeks.

A well-kept sauna often lasts 15 to 20 years or more.
