6/8 Person Traditional Indoor Sauna

6/8 Person Traditional Indoor Sauna 

Premium Quality, Affordable, Safe and 5-Year Warranty

The 6/8 Person Traditional Indoor Sauna is where modern design meets authentic sauna tradition. This spacious sauna features a fully glazed front and is crafted from elegant Hemlock wood, creating a contemporary and inviting atmosphere perfect for shared relaxation. To enhance the aesthetic appeal, stone-effect tiles adorn the rear wall, adding a touch of luxury that elevates your overall sauna experience.

At the heart of this sauna is a traditional sauna stove, designed to heat sauna stones that produce steam, offering complete control over the temperature and humidity. This method, rooted in time-honoured sauna practices, promotes relaxation, detoxification, and improved circulation. Ideal for groups of 6/8 people, this sauna provides a luxurious, communal wellness experience with the charm and effectiveness of traditional sauna culture.

 

Heating Method

Traditional saunas with electric heaters provide an authentic, high-heat experience that promotes intense sweating and deep relaxation. Operating between 80°C and 90°C, these saunas boost circulation, aid in muscle recovery, and help eliminate toxins through perspiration.

Adding water to the sauna stones creates steam, enhancing respiratory function and opening pores for improved skin health. This combination of high heat and controlled humidity delivers comprehensive wellness benefits, supporting both physical and mental well-being.

This significantly reduces heat escaping through the walls, ensuring the sauna maintains a consistent temperature with less energy consumption.
• Enhances Efficiency and Comfort: By preventing heat loss, the air gap insulation allows the sauna to heat up faster and stay warm longer, providing a more comfortable and efficient sauna experience. This method not only conserves energy but also helps maintain the optimal temperature throughout your entire session.

  

Low Maintenance

• Canadian Hemlock Wood: This sauna is made from high-quality Canadian Hemlock, which is naturally resistant to warping and requires minimal maintenance. To keep it clean, simply wipe down the benches with warm soapy water every few months. This simple routine will maintain the wood’s appearance and hygiene.
• Sauna White Oil: Our starter package includes sauna white oil, which further simplifies maintenance. Applying the oil helps to protect the wood from stains and moisture, making it easier to clean and prolonging the life of your sauna’s interior.
• Exterior Maintenance: As an indoor model, the exterior of the sauna does not require any special maintenance or cleaning. Simply enjoy your sauna without worrying about additional upkeep.

Foundations

Locating Your Sauna

• Inside the Home: Placing your sauna within a spare room or part of your house can significantly reduce heating time compared to installing it in a garage. The ambient temperature of an indoor room is generally higher and more stable, which means the sauna requires less energy to reach the desired heat level. 
• Garage/Shed: In contrast, a garage often has a cooler ambient temperature, which can result in a longer warm-up time as the sauna works to overcome the cooler surrounding air.

    

Flooring Types and Impact on Heating

• Carpet or Laminate Flooring: These materials provide better insulation, helping to retain heat within the sauna and reducing warm-up time. They prevent cool air from seeping into the sauna, making it quicker and more energy-efficient to heat.
• Concrete or Tarmac: Saunas placed on these surfaces may take longer to heat up. Concrete, in particular, can absorb heat from the sauna and dissipate it, leading to cool air mixing with the warm air inside. This can prolong the warm-up period and increase energy consumption as the sauna struggles to maintain the desired temperature.

   

Base Requirements

• Suitable Bases: A level and sturdy foundation is essential for the proper assembly and long-term stability of your sauna. Suitable base options for our indoor saunas include wooden floors, tiled floors, carpet, laminate, concrete, and tarmac.
• Avoid Uneven Surfaces: Ensure the base is free from significant depressions or gullies over 20mm (3/4 inch), as these can cause the floor to bow and affect sauna performance.
• Installation Service Note: Our fitters will not assemble the sauna on an uneven base, as it compromises safety and function. Please ensure a suitable foundation is prepared to avoid installation delays.

   

How to Verify Your Sauna Base

To confirm the suitability of your sauna base, follow these steps:

• Check for Levelness: Place a straight piece of material, such as a wooden or metal pole, across the base. Use a spirit level on top to ensure the surface is even.
• Identify Depressions: Move the material around and look for any rocking or gaps underneath. If you notice any depressions exceeding 20mm (3/4 inch), the base may require adjustment.

    

Get Our Opinion

If you have any concerns about your sauna installation surface, feel free to contact us. We’re here to provide expert guidance and peace of mind.

To help us assess your sauna base, please email us at sales@homelivingluxury.com with:

• Images: Attach 3-5 photos of your chosen sauna location for a visual evaluation.
• Additional Details: Include any specific conditions or features of the base.
• Contact Number: Provide your phone number for prompt communication.
• Sauna Model: Specify the sauna model you're interested in for tailored advice.

    

Installation   

Installation Included

Installation is automatically included in the price of this sauna model due to its slightly more complex assembly process, which requires professional expertise to ensure proper setup and optimal performance.

That’s why professional installation, (typically valued at £500), is included at no extra cost with this sauna model. By including professional installation, we guarantee that your sauna is assembled and connected correctly, providing you with a safe, seamless and stress-free experience.

 

Scheduling Installation

On average, the period between order confirmation and installation is around 4 weeks.  After your order confirmation, our team will contact you to provide an official installation date, ensuring a smooth and well-coordinated process.

We will schedule an installation date that works around your timeframe. We will provide a couple of possible installation dates and you can choose the date that works best for you.

    

On the Day of Installation

Our installation slots cover the entire day, as we service customers across the UK mainland. Our fitters will give you a call approximately one hour before their arrival. Due to the nature of travel and unforeseen variables such as traffic, we cannot provide exact ETAs and cannot be held liable for any delays.

It is crucial that the homeowner is present on the day of installation. We need to coordinate with you on the precise location of the sauna and provide a detailed demonstration on how to operate it.

If you are not available at the scheduled time, our fitters may have to void the installation, and a second installation attempt will be required. This may incur additional charges and could delay the installation by up to 4 weeks, depending on availability.

To ensure a smooth installation process, please plan to be available throughout the day and keep your phone handy for the fitter's call.

     

Our Installation Procedure

1. Delivery: We handle the safe and efficient delivery of your sauna to your chosen location, ensuring it arrives in perfect condition, ready for installation.
2. Full Erection of the Sauna: We will transport and position the sauna in your designated location, ensuring it is watertight and free from drafts. Our team also addresses all electrical requirements during this process to guarantee a safe and fully functional sauna experience.
3. Connection to Pre-Wired Rotary Isolator: If your sauna requires a dedicated electrical supply  and your electrician has pre-installed the necessary rotary isolator, we will handle the final connection, making the sauna ready for immediate use. 
4. Comprehensive Appliance Inspection: After installation, we perform a thorough inspection of all sauna appliances to ensure everything is working as intended. We provide a detailed demonstration of how the sauna operates, ensuring you are fully prepared to enjoy your sauna.
5. Duration: Our assembly and installation service typically takes between 2-4 hours per sauna.

      

Electrical

Power Supply

This sauna model will not plug into a standard UK household socket. Instead, this sauna model requires a 6kW electrical supply. This electrical setup must be hardwired, providing a dedicated power source for your sauna. This connection will be made into a rotary isolator.

For expert guidance on wiring the rotary isolator from your fuse board and connecting it to your sauna's power supply, we recommend consulting with your local qualified electrician. 

 

Rotary Isolator

This is an example image of the rotary isolator which this sauna requires.

  

Rotary Isolator Placement

For optimal performance and safety in indoor installations, the rotary isolator should be positioned above the sauna. The sauna’s electrical cable (flying lead) extends 2 meters from the top of the unit. To ensure proper connection, the isolator should be placed within 2 meters from the centre of the top of the sauna's back wall. This placement ensures that the cable length is sufficient to reach the isolator.

     

Choosing Your Timing

We strongly recommend completing all necessary electrical work before the sauna installation. This approach simplifies the process and ensures that your electrician has ample space to work without having to manoeuvre around the sauna.

Completing the electrical work in advance also allows our installation team to test all appliances and provide you with a comprehensive demonstration of how to use your sauna, which we cannot do if the electrical setup is incomplete. This preparation ensures a smoother installation and a fully functional sauna experience from the start.

      

Qualified Electrical Installation

Your safety is paramount when it comes to enjoying your Home Living Luxury sauna. If you do not have a rotary isolator installed on your property (as pictured above), you will need to have one installed. To guarantee a secure and efficient electrical setup, it's imperative to entrust this task to a qualified electrician who is well-versed in adhering to BS 7671 regulations.

• Qualified Electrician: All electrical connections for your new sauna must be carried out by a qualified electrician. The installation must conform to BS 7671 regulations to ensure your safety.
• Residual Current Device (RCD): Your sauna must be supplied through a residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA. This additional safety measure helps protect against electric shock.
• Hardwired: The sauna requires a hardwired connection and the instructions above must be followed and understood by both yourself and your electrician.
• Rotary Isolator Requirements: Ideally, it should be as close to the sauna as possible, we strongly recommend within 2 meters.

Should you have any specific questions or require further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us. 

      

Sauna Health Benefits

Sauna Health Benefits

Saunas have been revered for their potential health benefits for centuries, and today, modern science continues to uncover the therapeutic advantages they offer.

In this section, we delve into the sauna's transformative effects on both body and mind. From improved circulation and detoxification to relaxation and pain relief, saunas have a lot to offer in the realm of wellness. Understanding the health benefits can help you harness the full potential of this age-old practice for your own personal well-being.

    

Cardiovascular Health 

• Boosts Blood Flow: Saunas increase heart rate, which promotes the dilation of blood vessels and improves circulation throughout the body. This process helps deliver more oxygen and nutrients to muscles and tissues, aiding recovery and enhancing overall cardiovascular health. It’s particularly beneficial for individuals with limited mobility, as it simulates the effects of mild exercise without physical strain.
• Supports Cardiovascular Health: Regular sauna use has been linked to reduced blood pressure and improved heart function. The increased circulation can help lower the risk of conditions such as hypertension and heart disease, offering a safe and therapeutic option for maintaining heart health.

        

Strengthens Immune System

• Boosts Immunity: Sauna use can increase the production of white blood cells, which are vital for fighting infections. The temporary rise in body temperature also mimics a fever, which helps activate the immune system and strengthens the body's natural defences.
• Reduces Illness Risk: Regular sauna sessions can help build a more robust immune system, potentially reducing the frequency and severity of illnesses. While not a cure-all, saunas can be a valuable addition to a healthy lifestyle aimed at supporting immune function.

    

Detox

• Eliminates Toxins: Sweating is one of the body’s natural detoxification processes. In a sauna, your core temperature rises, leading to increased sweating that helps expel harmful substances like heavy metals, chemicals, and pollutants. This process supports the body's natural ability to cleanse itself, promoting overall health and well-being.
• Supports Natural Detoxification: While sauna-induced sweating aids in detoxification, it is crucial to rehydrate afterward to replenish lost fluids. This helps maintain the balance of electrolytes in the body and ensures that the detoxification process is effective and safe.

   

Stress Relief and Relaxation

• Relieves Tension: The heat from the sauna penetrates deep into muscles, alleviating tension and promoting relaxation. This tranquil environment allows the body to unwind, which can reduce physical and mental stress, making it an effective tool for stress management.
• Endorphin Boost: Saunas trigger the release of endorphins, the body's natural "feel-good" hormones. These chemicals not only enhance mood but also reduce the perception of pain and promote a sense of overall well-being, helping to combat anxiety and depression.

       

Mental Clarity and Well-Being

• Promotes Mindfulness: The quiet, serene environment inside a sauna offers an excellent opportunity for meditation and reflection. This mental break can lead to increased self-awareness, clarity of thought, and emotional balance.
• Mood Enhancement: The release of endorphins during sauna sessions contributes to a sense of well-being and improved mood. Regular use can help combat feelings of anxiety and depression, promoting a positive mental state.

    

Pain Management and Relief

• Soothes Sore Muscles: Heat therapy has been shown to relax muscles and alleviate joint pain, making it beneficial for conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, and sports-related injuries. The warmth increases blood circulation, helping muscles recover faster and reducing stiffness and discomfort.
• Reduces Inflammation: Enhanced blood flow to affected areas helps to remove inflammatory markers and speed up the healing process. This can significantly reduce inflammation and provide long-lasting pain relief, improving mobility and quality of life.

     

Enhanced Sleep Quality

• Improves Sleep Quality: The relaxing effects of a sauna session can help reduce the time it takes to fall asleep and improve overall sleep quality. The rise and subsequent drop in body temperature post-sauna session can help signal the body that it's time to sleep, promoting deeper and more restful slumber.
• Calms the Mind: Saunas help decrease cortisol levels, the hormone responsible for stress. Lower cortisol levels make it easier to relax and prepare for sleep, helping to establish a healthy sleep routine.

    

Skin Health and Rejuvenation

• Deep Cleansing: Sauna-induced sweating opens pores and flushes out impurities like dead skin cells and excess oil. This natural cleansing process can help reduce the occurrence of acne and other skin conditions, leading to a clearer complexion and healthier skin.
• Enhanced Skin Nourishment: The increased blood flow delivers essential nutrients and oxygen to the skin, promoting cell regeneration and giving the skin a radiant, youthful appearance. Regular sauna use can contribute to a smoother, more even skin tone.

      

Enhanced Respiratory Function

• Eases Breathing: The warm, humid air in saunas helps open airways and alleviate congestion, making it easier to breathe. This can be especially beneficial for individuals with respiratory conditions such as asthma or chronic bronchitis.
• Symptom Relief: Regular sauna use may help reduce airway constriction and inflammation, leading to improved lung function and easier breathing. This can enhance respiratory health and provide relief from symptoms.

       

Weight Management

• Calorie Burning: Although saunas are not a substitute for exercise, the increased heart rate and sweating during a session can contribute to calorie burning. The heat causes your body to work harder to maintain a stable temperature, leading to additional energy expenditure.
• Complementary Approach: Saunas are most effective when used as part of a comprehensive weight management plan that includes diet and exercise. They can aid in reducing water weight and improving metabolism, but should not be relied upon as the sole method for weight loss.

        

Social Engagement and Community

• Promotes Social Interaction: Saunas offer a shared experience that encourages meaningful conversations and bonding with family and friends.
• Builds Community Connections: In communal settings, saunas foster socialization and a sense of belonging, enhancing overall community well-being.

         

Closing Remarks

It's important to emphasise that the benefits of sauna use can vary from person to person, and individual experiences may differ.

Additionally, moderation is key, as excessive sauna use can lead to dehydration or other health issues. If you have underlying medical conditions or are pregnant, consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating saunas into your routine.

Overall, when used responsibly, saunas offer a wealth of physical and mental health benefits, contributing to a healthier and more vibrant life.
