Heracles Wellness brings you our 7 person saunas collection, offering a spacious and comfortable sauna experience for large families, social gatherings, or commercial settings. Our collection is designed to cater to multiple users at once, with features and functionality that provide the best possible sauna experience.
7 person saunas are built to accommodate larger groups without compromising on comfort or performance. Whether you’re setting up a sauna in a home spa or a commercial wellness center, these saunas provide enough space for everyone to sit comfortably while enjoying the full benefits of either infrared or traditional heating.
Crafted from durable and heat-retaining materials like Canadian Hemlock and Cedar, these saunas ensure a consistent temperature and a secure environment, no matter how often they’re used. Each sauna in the collection comes with advanced features like digital controls, built-in Bluetooth speakers, and LED lighting, which allow users to create a personalized sauna experience. Discover sauna range at our store.
In this collection, there are two primary types of saunas: infrared and traditional electric saunas. Both types offer unique benefits, depending on what kind of sauna experience you’re looking for.
Infrared saunas use infrared light to directly heat the body, without needing to warm the air around you. These saunas typically operate between 40°C and 60°C, making them ideal for those who want a more comfortable experience while still enjoying the detoxifying effects of a sauna.
For example, if you’re someone who enjoys longer sauna sessions, an infrared 7 person sauna could be the perfect choice. You can spend more time in the sauna without feeling overwhelmed by heat. Plus, infrared saunas are energy-efficient, which means you can use them frequently without worrying about high electricity bills.
Traditional electric saunas heat the air inside the sauna, creating a hot and dry environment with temperatures ranging from 70°C to 90°C. This is the classic sauna experience many users are familiar with, providing intense heat that promotes sweating and a vigorous detox.
For those who prefer the high heat of a traditional sauna, this option is perfect. For example, if you're setting up a home sauna that replicates the intense heat of a professional sauna or wellness center, a traditional 7 person sauna will deliver the results you expect. These saunas are also excellent for group use, allowing everyone to enjoy a hot, sweat-inducing session together. Have a smaller group to relax with? Purchase 4 person saunas.
If you're unsure whether to choose infrared or traditional heating, consider a combo sauna. These saunas combine both infrared and traditional heating elements, allowing users to switch between the two depending on their preferences.
For example, if one day you want a low-heat, longer session for muscle recovery, and the next day you’re craving a high-heat, short session to sweat out toxins, an infrared-combo sauna lets you choose. This versatility makes combo saunas an excellent choice for families or commercial settings with varying user preferences. Looking to get one just for yourself? Buy 1 person sauna.
Choosing the right 7 person sauna depends on several factors: how you plan to use it, your space requirements, and which features are most important to you. Let’s break it down based on real-life scenarios.
For frequent, longer use: If you plan to use the sauna regularly for extended sessions, an infrared sauna is ideal. These saunas offer gentler heat that’s more comfortable to sit in for longer periods. For example, if you and your family enjoy unwinding in the sauna after work or exercise, an infrared model will provide a relaxing environment without the intense heat of a traditional sauna.
For a classic, high-heat experience: If you’re looking to replicate the intense heat of a commercial sauna at home or in a wellness center, a traditional sauna is the best option. The high temperatures will promote sweating and detoxification, making it perfect for users who prefer shorter, more intense sessions. For instance, if your primary goal is to sweat out toxins or create a spa-like atmosphere in your home, a traditional sauna will meet those needs.
For flexibility and variety: If you live in a household or run a wellness center where different people have different preferences, a combo sauna is the most versatile option. It gives you the flexibility to switch between low-temperature infrared heat and high-temperature traditional heat. For example, a family with mixed sauna preferences will benefit from the ability to cater to everyone’s needs, whether they prefer a gentle or intense sauna experience.
Space and installation considerations: Before purchasing a 7 person sauna, make sure you have the space to accommodate it. These saunas are large, typically requiring a dedicated room or spacious area for installation. Measure the space carefully and ensure it’s well-ventilated, whether you’re installing the sauna indoors or outdoors. If you have a large basement, home gym, or dedicated spa area, this collection offers the perfect saunas for those spaces.
Our collection of 7 person saunas is designed to offer a range of options for both home and commercial use. Whether you’re looking for the energy efficiency of an infrared sauna, the intensity of a traditional sauna, or the versatility of a combo sauna, we’ve got you covered. Browse our collection at Heracles Wellness today to find the perfect sauna for your needs.

So pleased with our sauna. It’s well made and chose fully assembled. Following the electrical installation I’ve used it on a regular basis. I love it and purchased it to go alongside my swim pond for contrast therapy.
The team at Hercules have been there to answer and questions and kept me updated throughout the purchase and delivery. I also had a post delivery call to check all was ok.
Good old fashioned outstanding customer service and a great product.

I don’t normally give reviews however I wanted to leave some positive comments for this company. The sales service is excellent delivery day was flexible around my ability to be at home. Building the sauna was straightforward instructions were easy to follow, I had a local builder complete most of the work and I supported on the project where 2 people were required. We contacted Keith directly a couple of times for clarification on the instructions and he responded within 10 mins of the question with extremely helpful advice. We are now using the sauna it’s absolutely amazing!! Heats up in 15 mins we feel so relaxed and refreshed when we are finished !! I would recommend the company and product to all who read this and I have also shared with all are friends. Great value for money !!
I can’t recommend this company enough. From the initial call, information provided, communication throughout purchasing delivery, flexibility with delaying installation, quality of the installers, and the overall quality of the product. There are not many companies that deserve a five star review, but these guys certainly do. I was a bit nervous ahead of purchase as I wasn’t able to see the sauna in person. The reviews were certainly helpful. I noticed a 3 star review, and the reason was complexity around the electric supply. This review was very helpful as I had an electrician visit my house before I purchased the sauna so that I understood what was needed to be done ahead and you’re in the sauna installation. If I hadn’t read this review, I probably would’ve been a bit frustrated with the amount of work that was required. I wanted to mention that here so anybody considering the purchase, does the due diligence around the electrics. My case was particularly difficult because this has to route to a fuse box, and the fuse box is in the middle of my house under the stairs. It was quite difficult for the electrician in my circumstances, and the cost was around £500. I suggest something to be aware of. Heracles do you make it clear that the electrics are out of the professional services scope and that people should research this ahead of committing to an order. Brilliant company brilliant product. Very happy.
Make no mistake, this is a premium product that gives you a sauna experience equivalent to that found in spa’s health clubs etc.
I have no hesitation in recommending this product and Keith and the team at Heracles were so helpful through the selection and build process!
I love my sauna!
I love how it looks, i love how it smells! I love how simple it is to use and I love that it has space for two to lie down.
I was hesitant to order as at the time there were no reviews of this company and there was no offer to pay via PayPal for protection. The price however was very competitive so decided to take the risk and use a credit card. So glad I did!
The instructions are good enough with someone that has an understanding of how to build. It really needs to be thought out though before building as the picture was a little different to the instructions. We were strongly advised by people with a bit of knowledge to have it connected to our electric supply professionally which we did.
All in all, I would happily recommend and am so thankful to my hubby who bought it for my 40th. It really has given me a place of calm to hang out and restore.
It heats up so quick with the 6KW heater, within 30mins it’s at 100 degrees. It’s been in our garden for around 6 months and weathered lovely. Really looking forward to the garden to come into flower now so can enjoy even more..So happy!
We bought a sauna in December and it’s been a god send, high quality and exceptional workmanship. I would highly recommend.
Thank you for helping me. The delivery and installation process was prompt.
What a fantastic buy. We purchased the kit and built the sauna over a week. I would put the install into a few stages. Build the sauna. you need 2 people for the end walls. Treat the outside Helo Aqua 20 & treat the inside Supi Saunasuoja suana care. Install the door and benches and treat benches with supi Laudesouja protective oil . Install mains supply, isolator and LED lighting. We love it. Its relaxing and easily fits 3 people with ample room. The sauna heats up quickly, smells wonderful and holds the heat very well. Wished we bought one years ago as it's a great experience.
I opted for the on site assembly and so glad I did, the chaps who arrived kept me updated with their journey progress and ETA.
Once arrive they were very efficient and ensured they cleaned up the area afterwards. They also went through the sauna and ensured I knew how to operate fully before leaving.
Great service.
A big thanks to Keith and his expert installation team. An incredible effort and one very happy customer.
I’d highly recommend the Halas Hele Nano Sauna as a stylish and fantastic outdoor sauna option.
The sauna gets super hot in less than an hour and is an amazing addition to our property and wellness set up!
I have used it regularly over the last 3 months without any issues and would definitely recommend the wireless control set up which is fantastic so you can control it from your phone and even time when you’d like it to come on.
It is perfect as a 1 person Sauna as you can stretch out but I mainly use it with my son and that is fine also.
I’d also recommend Heracles Wellness, Keith’s support both before and after installation has been first class.
Fantastic experience with Heracles Wellness. Great customer service - Keith was particularly good - really prompt with tackling all questions and solutions for delivery etc. Delighted with the final product.
We are very pleased with our Orca Leisure Heartboro 6-person Hot Tub, which we bought for the decking of our Holiday Lodge, which we sublet when we aren't there. It is fun, spacious and easy to use with 4 clearly labelled buttons for temperature, jets, lights and auxiliary (the AUX button turns on a 3rd pump which activates some of the jets). There are 5 spaces for people to sit and one space for someone to lie down and the jets effectively give you a full massage. There are lights and blue-tooth speakers to create a mood. Our 4 grandsons christened it for us and said it was much better than the previous one it had replaced. Moreover the cost was very competitive and the company (Heracles Wellness) a pleasure to deal with and really helpful before, during and after the installation. We would certainly recommend.
We spent 2 years researching and thinking about buying this sauna, most of that time we were talking to a different supplier who had UK exclusivity. The problem being that they would not take responsibility for delivery and offload. Thankfully they lost their exclusivity contract and we were able to purchase from Heracles. What a breath of fresh air. They were helpful to a point of actually setting up the sauna for us, and we still talk regularly if we have questions on this beautiful product. I am going to leave some reviews elsewhere with more detail, but so far this sauna has exceeded our expectations. We don’t have 3 phase, so was worried it would not be hot enough but we have learnt to actually set it to cooler than a normal sauna as it’s so efficient. Thanks Heracles . It’s a restively expensive price of kit but we have no regrets at all. The manufacturer Hellas have also spoken to us which is really nice. There was a small glitch with the HUUM heater app but they too have been responsive.
This sauna is actually better than I thought it would be. Which is rare to say these days.
Lots of functionality and super good quality. And I came out of it feeling amazing. The infrared heat is definitely the way to go.
Thank you.
