Why Choose Infrared

Comfortable Heat for Everyday Sauna Use

Infrared saunas are popular with Raleigh homeowners who want a sauna experience at lower operating temperatures than a traditional high-heat sauna. The radiant panels heat the user directly, creating a different experience from a traditional sauna heater.

Full-spectrum infrared systems may include near, mid, and far infrared wavelengths. We can help you compare available heating systems and panel configurations based on the sauna size, layout, and experience you prefer.

Panel placement is an important part of an infrared sauna design. The room layout, seating position, panel location, and controls all need to work together to create consistent heat throughout the space.

Electrical requirements vary depending on the sauna size and infrared system selected. We account for those requirements during the design process, but all electrical wiring and final connections must be completed by a licensed electrician.
