Saunacore Sauna Heater Quality...

Advanced Design...

Our electric sauna heater features an improved "heat release system" that allows virtually all of the heat to be circulated into the center of the room, keeping the heater and the Incoloy elements much cooler, resulting in 20 or 25 year life spans of the elements. The built-in heat deflectors assist in moving the heat to the centre of the sauna room to benefit the bathers and away from the ceiling directly above the heater.

Use of Water on the Hot Sauna Rocks...

Every Saunacore electric sauna heater can be safely used with water thrown on to the hot rocks to make steam and increase the humidity. Or you can run the heater as a dry sauna with no water. The sauna heater elements, made from Incoloy type of stainless steel, are built for extreme use.

Choose from 3 Sauna Control Options...

1. Our Built-in Controls are on the heater & included in the price. More Info Below...
2. The Outside Wall Control is a low cost mechanical control. More Info Below...
3. The Digital Electronic Controls are the most popular with many additional benefits. More Info Below...

Quality Craftsmanship...

Each electric sauna heater is carefully handcrafted with stainless and galvanized steel to provide a lifetime of enjoyable sauna use. The heavy-duty Incoloy elements are rated for extremely long life surpassing the life of ordinary stainless steel elements found in other sauna heater models.

Sauna Heater Control Options...   1.  The Built-in Controls are mounted right on the sauna heater and are included in the price. Many sauna buyers prefer the built-in controls (thermostat & 60 minute timer) for their ease of wiring as the 240 volt wiring goes directly to the heater. 2.  The Outside Wall Control is a low cost sauna control. The OWC sauna control will be located in a wall outside the sauna at a convenient face level. This control eliminates going into the sauna and bending over each time to turn the sauna on, off or adjust the controls. This thermostat has a 12' capillary to connect the heat sensor (located above the sauna heater) to the thermostat control. The OWC sauna control must, therefore, be located within 7' or 8' of the heater. A 3-gang masonry junction box is recommended for easier installation of the wires to the controls. Your electrician normally supplies this part or we can supply it ($19). The OWC Control allows a temperature fluctuation of 15 degrees. The timer makes an obvious ticking sound. 3.  The Digital Electronic Control is our most popular control. It provides a number of extra features. The DEC electronic thermostat maintains the sauna temperature extremely accurately, within +/- 3 degrees. The electronic timer has no ticking sound.  The DEC sauna control is ideal whenever the control is more than 7' or 8' away from the heater. It can also be located up to 100' away from the sauna heater. Available now on Sale!!! BONUS OFFER: You will also receive FREE the special 3-gang wide junction box (a $19 saving).

Sauna Heater Rough-in Information...
   1. Sauna Heater Sizes 2 Kw to 6 Kw: Our 240 volt sauna heaters are wired in 2 ways based on the electrical size of the sauna heater. Sauna heater sizes 2 Kw to 6 Kw use the same controls. The supply wiring is installed to connect the electrical supply panel directly to the sauna control if the optional OWC or DEC controls are purchased. If the heater has built-in controls, the wire will run directly to the sauna heater. Use AWG #10/2 wire for heater sizes 5Kw and smaller. Use AWG #8/2 for the 6 Kw heater. A 3 gang masonry junction box will be needed to install the Outside Wall Control.  A normal 3 gang switch box does not have enough room to bend the #10 or #8 wires. Using the masonry box will simplify the installation.
 
2. Sauna Heater Sizes 7.5 to 9 Kw: Larger sauna heater models over 6 Kw or over 25 amps use a magnetic contactor (or coil) to control the electrical load. The wiring (usually #8 AWG) from the electrical supply panel runs to the magnetic contactor and not to the control. The magnetic contactor in turn supplies power to the sauna heater. In this event, the sauna controls are wired (as a control circuit) to regulate the magnetic contactor using AWG #14 with 6 conductors. Just use 3 runs of #14/2. The high-limit control on the heater must be wired back to the sauna control in the event it trips and breaks the entire circuit. It is a requirement that a licensed electrician is required to install the sauna wiring and sauna connections. Sauna Tip: All sauna heaters 7.5 Kw or larger that have built-in controls on the sauna heater, will make a audible "click" every time the heater starts or stops. This clicking can be eliminated with the purchase of the optional DEC control. In that event, the magnetic contactor is not inside the sauna and you will not hear it click.
