Questions people ask before buying this one

Will it run off a normal plug?

The seller doesn't say. Heaters for a cabin this size usually need a new circuit, so we add £450 to be safe. Sauna electrics.

Will it fit, and do I need planning permission?

The seller doesn't publish the outside size. Ask before you order, and check the height if it will stand within 2 m of a fence. Planning rules.

What will it cost to run?

About £0.53 of electricity a session and £55 a year at 2 sessions a week. Change the numbers in the calculator below. If 2 of you would otherwise pay £10 each for community sauna sessions, it costs about the same as those sessions after 1.7 years.

Will it last?

The warranty isn't published.
