Frequently Asked Questions
What are the electrical requirements for this sauna?
The Catalonia requires three individual 110V/20amp dedicated circuits for operation. Due to this specific requirement, we strongly recommend hiring a certified electrician for the installation to ensure your sauna runs safely and efficiently. You can learn more about the general power needs by reading our guide on how much electricity a sauna uses.
Can I really do yoga in this sauna?
Yes, absolutely. The eight comfort benches are designed to be portable and can be completely removed from the sauna. This transforms the spacious 82" x 70" interior into an open floor, making it a perfect hot yoga studio for stretching, meditation, and exercise routines.
What is the difference between this FAR infrared sauna and a traditional steam sauna?
This FAR infrared sauna uses light to create heat that directly warms your body, providing a deep, penetrating warmth at a lower ambient temperature. In contrast, traditional saunas use heaters to warm the air around you to a very high temperature, which then heats your body. Many users find the infrared experience more comfortable for longer sessions.
How difficult is the assembly process?
The sauna is designed with a clasp-together assembly system to make the process as straightforward as possible. While it is a large unit, the panels are made to connect securely with minimal hardware. We recommend having at least two people for the assembly process.
Is this sauna suitable for commercial use?
Yes, its large 8-person capacity, durable Canadian Hemlock construction, and advanced features make the Catalonia an excellent choice for commercial settings such as gyms, spas, hotels, and wellness centers.
What are the benefits of Near Zero EMF heaters?
Near Zero EMF (Electromagnetic Field) heaters are designed to minimize your exposure to EMFs, which are energy waves emitted by electronic devices. While the health effects are debated, choosing a Near Zero EMF sauna like this one provides peace of mind for users who want to limit their exposure and enjoy the purest possible sauna experience.
