*35-40 minutes to reach about 125-130 degrees Fahrenheit/52-54 degrees
Celsius (depending on sauna model)
*45-60 minutes to reach up to approximately 135 degrees Fahrenheit/57
degrees Celsius (depending on sauna model)
Please keep in mind that you can either preheat the sauna to the set temperature
before entering or sit inside the sauna as the temperature rises. In addition, you
will increase the time it takes for the sauna to reach the set temperature if you
enter the sauna room before it has reached the set temperature. Also, the most
commonly used temperature setting is between 118 degrees Fahrenheit / 48
degrees
Celsius and 122 degrees Fahrenheit / 50 degrees Celsius. The way the sauna
room works is when you set the Control Panel to say 120 degrees F / 49 degrees
C, the heat emitters will turn off when that set temperature is reached. And even
though the sauna does allow the user to set the Control Panel to 151 degrees F/66
degrees C, this is specifically for those users who do not want the heat emitters
to ever turn off as the sauna room will never achieve 151 degrees F / 66 degrees
C. After 3 hours of continuous use, the sauna needs to be shut down for one
hour.
Tips for using Your Sauna
1. If you take a hot/warm shower or bath before using your sauna, you may perspire
more and experience more comfort.
2. Drink water prior to, during, and after your sauna session to replenish body fluids.
3. To regulate the set temperature inside the sauna to your comfort level, use the
movable roof vent or leave the door slightly open. The roof vent is installed on the
sauna and used based on personal preference.
4. Use 2 towels during your sauna session. Fold the first towel several times and
place it on the bench. As you sit on this towel, it will absorb a majority of your
perspiration while adding comfort as you sit on the bench. Use the second towel
to either constantly wipe the perspiration from your body to perspire faster and
also to avoid having too much perspiration dripping onto the floor. Never place
any towels over the floor heater. If your legs become cold, you can use a third
towel to drape over your legs to trap the heat.
5. This is a non-commercial sauna. For every three hours ON, the sauna must be
turned OFF for one hour to cool down.
6. At the first sign of a cold or flu, increasing your sauna sessions may be beneficial
in boosting your immune system and decreasing the reproductive rate of the
virus.
7. To help relieve sore and tense muscles, massage the affected areas during your
sauna session.
