Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a traditional steam sauna and an infrared sauna?
A traditional sauna, like this Hanko Edition, uses a heater (stove) to warm rocks. You pour water on the rocks to create steam, which heats the air in the room to high temperatures (typically 150-185°F). This hot air then heats your body. In contrast, infrared saunas use special lamps to emit infrared light, which heats your body directly without dramatically heating the air around you. Both offer excellent health benefits, but the experience is different.
How many people can comfortably fit inside?
The Hanko Edition is designed to comfortably accommodate 2 to 3 adults. The bench seating is spacious enough for a small group to relax without feeling crowded, making it a versatile 3 person sauna.
Can this sauna be installed outdoors?
This model is designed primarily as an indoor sauna. However, it can be placed in a covered and protected outdoor area, such as a patio, garage, or sunroom, where it will not be directly exposed to rain, snow, or harsh weather elements.
What kind of maintenance does the cedar wood require?
The Canadian Red Cedar interior is naturally resistant to mold and mildew. To maintain it, simply wipe down the benches with a damp cloth after use. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners. Periodically, you can lightly sand any stains and use a sauna-specific wood treatment to keep it looking fresh.
How much electricity will this sauna use?
Electricity consumption depends on your usage frequency and duration. The 6KW Harvia heater is the primary power consumer. For a comprehensive overview, we recommend reading our expert guide on how much electricity a sauna uses to better understand the operational costs.
What should I wear while using the sauna?
For hygiene and comfort, it's common to sit on a towel. Most users prefer to wear minimal clothing, such as a swimsuit or shorts, to allow for maximum sweat and heat exposure. You can find more tips in our article about what to wear in a sauna.
