Frequently Asked Questions
How many people can the SaunaLife Model G4 accommodate?
The Model G4 is designed to comfortably seat up to 6 bathers, making it an excellent choice for families or social gatherings. You can explore our full range of 6-person saunas for more options.
What materials are used in the sauna's construction?
The sauna is built for longevity with premium materials. The exterior walls are thick Nordic Spruce, known for its durability and resistance to warping. The interior benches are crafted from smooth, non-resinous Grade-A Aspen, which stays comfortable to the touch. This construction is typical of a high-quality traditional sauna.
Is the sauna difficult to install?
No, it is engineered for a straightforward DIY installation. Thanks to the precision-milled interlocking wall sections, two adults can typically assemble the main structure in about two days. A licensed electrician is required for the heater and lighting connection.
How does this compare to an infrared sauna?
The G4 is a traditional sauna, which heats the air to high temperatures to induce sweating. This differs from infrared saunas, which use light waves to heat your body directly at lower air temperatures. Both offer incredible health benefits, but the experience is different. Traditional saunas provide the ability to use water on the rocks (löyly) for steam.
How much electricity does a sauna like this use?
The electricity usage depends on the heater you choose (typically 6-8kW for this size) and your local utility rates. On average, a one-hour session might use 6-8 kWh of electricity. For a more detailed breakdown, you can read our guide on how much electricity a sauna uses.
What kind of heater do I need to buy?
This sauna kit does not include a heater, giving you the flexibility to select one that fits your preferences. It is designed to work with a 6kW to 8kW electric sauna heater. We recommend exploring our selection of the best sauna heaters to find a reliable and efficient model for your G4.
