Infrared vs. traditional for accessible rooms

Infrared heats the body directly, so it runs cooler than a traditional sauna and needs no special ventilation.

Heat sourceInfrared radiant heaters emit wavelengths that heat the body directly
Temperature range*100-170°F
VentilationNo special ventilation needed
MaintenanceLow; easy to clean
ExperienceNon-stifling heat can make for comfortable, enjoyable, stress-relieving sessions.
How heat worksThe body absorbs infrared energy directly; the sauna's heat can also raise body temperature.
Traditional sauna

Traditional sauna

Heat sourceA stove heats the air
Temperature range*160-200°F
VentilationNeeds proper insulation and ventilation
MaintenanceModerate; wood care and cleaning
ExperienceThe hotter, more intense air can feel stifling and uncomfortable, driving a hard, fast sweat and often shorter sessions.
How heat worksAn electric or wood-fired heater heats the air, which transfers heat to the body and can raise body temperature.
