Types of Infrared Home Sauna 

Our infrared home sauna collection includes a range of sizes and layouts to suit different spaces, usage needs, and wellness goals. From solo recovery sessions to shared experiences, each model balances performance with comfort and design.

1-2 Person Infrared Saunas

Our 1–2 person infrared saunas create an intimate, calming environment ideal for individuals or couples. These compact cabins fit comfortably into spare rooms, bathrooms, or home gyms while still offering enough space to relax fully.

Features typically include carbon fibre heating panels for even warmth, LED control panels for precise temperature adjustments, and built-in Bluetooth audio to support mindful downtime. If you’re drawn to a more traditional aesthetic, you can also explore our classic sauna options alongside these infrared models.

3-4 Person Infrared Saunas

Our 3-4 person infrared saunas offer a spacious interior for sharing the health benefits with others. You can use them for commercial purposes, or if you have a large family. These larger models feature ergonomic backrests, chromotherapy lighting, and even oxygen ionizers for air purification. Add a set of premium sauna accessories from our store to your 3-4 person infrared sauna.

With the right home sauna kit or ready-built cabin, you'll establish a personal wellness sanctuary supporting consistent self-care habits.

How Infrared Home Saunas Work for UK Homes

Infrared saunas use carbon heaters to emit far-infrared waves that penetrate the skin directly and operate at 100-160°F. This gentler method feels more tolerable during 30-40 minute sessions while still detoxifying the body through sweating. Most units reach working temperature in 10-15 minutes!

For those exploring residential wellness options, our home sauna range includes both ready-to-install cabins and flexible solutions. 

Choosing the Right Configuration

Start by considering your available space and who'll be using it. Compact home sauna pods need roughly 90-120cm width and fit tight corners. Larger cabins benefit from dedicated rooms where you can move freely. Most infrared models plug into standard UK outlets (230V), to avoid the electrical upgrades traditional steam saunas often require.

For DIY enthusiasts, our home sauna kits include all components and assembly guidance. These modular systems take 2-4 hours to build and don't require specialized tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between infrared and traditional saunas for home use?
Infrared heaters warm your body directly using carbon panels, operating at 100-160°F, while traditional saunas heat the surrounding air with steam generators or electric heaters. Also, traditional saunas reach 160-200°F, which is why people go for infrared units because of their gentler heat and greater energy efficiency for residential settings.
How much space does a 1-person infrared sauna need?
Single-person infrared cabins require a width of 90-120cm. Compact designs fit spare bedrooms, bathroom corners, or converted closets. Portable sauna blankets need even less room. Just enough floor space to lie down during heat therapy sessions.
Can I use an infrared cabin for muscle recovery after workouts?
Yes, infrared heat therapy supports muscle recovery by increasing blood circulation and helping soothe sore muscles. Many users schedule 30-40-minute sessions post-exercise to allow the far-infrared warmth to penetrate deeply while they relax with built-in audio features.
What features should I look for in a home infrared sauna?
Prioritize low-EMF emissions for safe, regular use, carbon heaters for consistent warmth, and Canadian hemlock construction for durability. LED light therapy, Bluetooth speakers, adjustable heat settings, and ergonomic backrests enhance comfort in wellness routines.
Are infrared saunas suitable for daily use at home?
Most manufacturers recommend 2-3 sessions per week, with 24 hours between visits. Daily use is possible once your body adapts—start with 15-20 minute sessions at lower temperatures, then gradually increase duration and heat as comfort permits.
