This calculator gives you an idea of what size heater you should be looking for. There are few factors that you have to consider when sizing the heater:
- The size of your sauna: The bigger the sauna, the bigger the heater
- The construction of your sauna: If your sauna is constructed from cold materials such as glass or stone, the heater should be bigger than in a wooden sauna. Our calculator takes that in to account.
- If you have really large sauna, you may need two heaters. If your sauna is bigger than single heater can handle, we recommend contacting us to get the sizing correct.
When in doubt buy a larger sauna heater
It's not uncommon that you buy too small of a sauna heater. However, we have never heard of a client buying a too-big one. Buying a bigger sauna heater has a few benefits:
- Your heater lasts longer when you don't have to run it at full capacity all the time.
- You can reach higher temperatures if you want to.
- The heat will be more consistent. That is because a bigger heater typically has more stones, which leads to more effective storage and radiation of the heat.
