Electrical Installation – Important Information

If you hire our installation team to build your sauna, please note that internal electrical wiring is not included and must be completed by a certified electrician.

Our installation team will:

• Mount the sauna heater to the wall (where applicable)
  
• Attach the LED light strips to the benches

However, the following must be completed by a qualified electrician:

• Final wiring and connection of the heater
  
• Final wiring of the LED lighting
  
• Installation and wiring of external control panels, door sensor, thermostat, and any other electrical components (not applicable for manually controlled heaters such as the Harvia Vega BC60).

Electrical Supply Requirements

A sauna heater typically requires a dedicated electrical supply, similar to those used for electric showers or cookers.

Most domestic sauna heaters in the UK operate on a single-phase 230V supply. The current draw can be calculated using the following formula:

Watts ÷ Volts = Amps

Example:

6kW (6000W) ÷ 230V = approximately 26 Amps

Below is a general guide for domestic sauna heaters:

Heater Power - Current Draw - Suggested Cable Size (Single-Phase)

2.3 kW - 10 Amps - 1.5 mm²

3.0 kW - 13 Amps - 2.5 mm²

3.6 kW - 15 Amps - 2.5 mm²

4.5 kW - 19 Amps - 2.5–4.0 mm²

6.0 kW - 26 Amps - 4.0 mm²

8.0 kW - 35 Amps - 6.0 mm²

9.0 kW - 40 Amps - 6.0 mm² (or higher, depending on cable run)
Cable size depends on cable length, installation method, and other on-site factors. Always defer to your electrician’s judgment.

We strongly advise that installation is carried out by a fully qualified electrician, and that all work complies with current Government regulations and wiring standards (e.g., BS 7671 in the UK).

At Heracles Wellness, we take pride in offering high-quality, made-to-order saunas tailored to your unique needs. Due to the bespoke nature of these products, our returns and refund policy is designed to reflect the custom craftsmanship involved.

Why Returns Are Limited for Made-to-Order Saunas

Made-to-order saunas are personalised and manufactured based on specific customer requirements. As such, these items cannot be resold or restocked, which is why we are unable to accept returns or offer refunds once fabrication has begun.

• Order Review: We strongly recommend double-checking all measurements and customisations to avoid errors.

• Right to Cancel (Prior to Fabrication): You may cancel your order before fabrication begins, subject to an administration fee.

Relevant Consumer Laws

Our policy aligns with your rights under UK consumer protection laws, including:

• Consumer Rights Act 2015: This law ensures products must be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, and as described. If your sauna does not meet these standards, we will take appropriate action to resolve the issue.

• Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation, and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013:
