Electric sauna heater | The best electric heater for your sauna

The energy cost of an electric sauna heater or electric sauna stove will vary depending on where you live and the model you choose.

On average, a 4.5 kW heater will cost $0.31 (USD) for every 20-minute session; that's only $60.48 a year (assuming you use it four times a week). A 4.5 kW electric heater has enough power to heat a room measuring 140 to 210 cubic feet.

According to a study by RunRepeat, the average gym costs in the US are " $31.00 with lower-tier memberships to $44.42 on higher-tier memberships." This means you'd be saving almost 11 months of gym memberships per year when you become a proud home sauna owner.

Water on a sauna heater is a matter of choice. However, adding too much water causes the sauna rocks to cool off, lowering the temperature of your sauna room. Too much water on a heater might also cause steam burns.

Please be careful when pouring water into your sauna stove or heater. Many sauna enthusiasts recommend using the ladle, as it's the safest way to add the right amount of water.

Electric sauna heaters are very safe as long as they are installed correctly. Always make sure to review the manufacturer's manual to ensure you are buying the right heater for you.

We recommend that a qualified electrician install your electric heater to avoid equipment damage.

Electric sauna heaters are excellent for precise temperature control. Also, the heat-up time is faster than a wood-burning sauna stove and offers many health benefits while maintaining a natural sauna session experience.
