Hi. The heater must be the right size for that space. The too big one makes you dry, the small one doesn't warm you up. You can adjust the heating TIME according to how you want it to be. Hot/dry or mild/moist.

The 6 kilowatt heater (kiuas) is the most common on home users. Sauna, kiuas, löyly, vihta/vasta, kauha, There is plenty words that cannot find in english. Except SAUNA!

Thank you! I have an outdoor barrel sauna on my wish list. On my heater the button on the left is the temperature dial which I keep on the hottest setting. The one on the right is the timer/on switch that turns the heater on. It gets up to 170 degrees in about 40 minutes in my one person logan sauna. The timer is helpful because I can set it to turn on and be ready for me when I want to get in.

Jacob Puckett thanks for the comment. The Interior dimensions are: 49″L x 31″W x 77″H. Good luck with your build!

If I keep the door sauna closed I don't notice too much of a change in the basement. Sometimes after I sauna I will purposely leave the door open and in that case the basement does heat up by around 5 degrees.

Place your heat sensor elsewhere. Make sure your heater is about 5" above the floor.

Too many rocks, temp sensor should be lower on the wall and not directly above heater. Lower sauna heater so only 4 inches above floor.

Hey man if you didn’t already run the line to answer your q you don’t have to run it directly in that way but you basically need a new 240v line ran.. as far as the outlet no.. you never switch any outlet in your home to 220/240 you go from the box to the unit.. u basically create a new line ok.. so don’t ever mess with already plugs in your home.. hope this helps

@@mikeham5465 Really appreciate the response Mike. I think I understand better now. Is it possible to run that type of wire through the walls/ceiling? And is it complicated? I'll be putting it in my finished basement about 9 ft away from the electrical box and the ceiling has recessed lighting. So hoping it's possible to fish the wire to the other room where the sauna is.

@@theshimmertrap5825 well it’s always more difficult to run wire inside walls because you have to fish it through.. this will most likely be an exterior line approach.. they have nicer stuff out there than what he used I use the medal corrugated whe running lines outdoor or u CJ’s also run it through pvc pipe how he did it.. but yea man I strongly suggest you not cut holes in walls trying to fish do everything surface mount

Hey if you have Facebook I can Facebook call u and show u how it goes on diy I’ll show u how I did my room.. I’m free for the next hour or so let me know

I meant smallest Sauna not heater. Sorry for any confusion. This sauna/heater combo is how it comes from the manufacturer.

This is the Logan indoor sauna. This is the direct link: almostheaven.com/collections/all/products/logan-1-person-indoor-sauna Thanks for watching and commenting!

I’ve done that in the past and it is great. Now I just do a cold shower after. Would love a cold plunge if it were more accessible for me.

I love it more and more each time I use it. I don’t mind using it solo. A group size would certainly be nice but I don’t regret the decision at all.

It is on the wall across from the door and towards the top.

No I purchased this directly from almost heaven as one item. The Logan sauna is designed specifically for this electric heater.

Ben Nguyen I’m not sure but I think electric or wood burning is the way you want to go. I’d also suggest looking into infrared heaters which are more space efficient.

For such a tiny sauna only electric, 2KW should be sufficient. It will consume 2KW only when it warms up, when gets to the set temperature it will turn on and off to maintain the temperature, and on average it will be on maybe 50% of the time or less, so it will consume 2KW during firs hour, after that it will be 1KW/h per hour, depending on ambient temperature and how often doors are opened, and how ventilated it is. Never heard of gas heaters for saunas, smallest woodburning stoves have higher power and are designed for larger saunas 5ft x 7ft x 7ft or so, and can not be regulated as precise as electric heaters. Make sure that sauna has good insulation including insulated doors (maybe small window) glass doors and walls loose a lot of heat. Wood floor instead compared to concrete, has less heat loss. (5 to 10 cm rockwool, reflective water vapor insulation , so that insulation stays dry and maybe insulated doors as well). Of course dont forget about some ventilation, so it is easy to breathe.

The heater is currently listed for $770. You can find the one I have and more here: www.saunaplace.com/store/Harvia/

Negligible. About the same as running a clothes dryer.

Cameron Phillips the sauna was a little over 2 grand.

Thanks for the Great video! Where did you get your sauna?

Cardinal Freebird it was a gift. It was ordered directly from almost heavens website.

@@ryanmilleryoga1098 did that include the heater? It seems much more expensive now!

@@GritzNGravy-rv6cw yes that included the heater. I know costs have gone up significantly across the board. I see the cost is now $3,200 on their website.

No noticeable damage so far after about 3 years…2-3 times per week.

$995. That was the cheapest of 3 quotes. I was quoted as high as $1600.

Thanks/just received a quote of $900. Not to far off from yours.

@@shawnstimac3449 nice. that sounds reasonable. They installed the heater and helped me finish the assembly. It was lot of money but worth it.

I was only charged $350!

Do you have to run those giant wires through your basement like that? I thought they would just modify the outlet

The instructions in the video are correct. Turning it one click does not turn the heater on. To turn it on immediately it is 3 total clicks, two clicks clockwise then turning it back counter clockwise until it clicks.

b r lol the sauna was on and the heat had me blinking a lot and turned my face red.

Only joking. I couldn't resist hehe
