Golden Designs Copenhagen 3 Person Indoor Steam Sauna

The assembly of the Golden Designs Copenhagen is designed to be as intuitive as possible. You'll receive comprehensive step-by-step instructions with your sauna, ensuring a smooth setup process.

The large wall pieces are designed for easy snap-together assembly and secured with pre-fabricated screws. The smaller pieces are also secured with pre-fabricated screws. The sauna is designed to be assembled by two people, and the process should take about 2-3 hours. If you have any questions or concerns, our customer service team is always happy to help.

We recommend non-outdoor specific models to be enclosed and sheltered from the elements.

The base should be strong enough to support the weight of the sauna, resistant to heat and moisture.

Here are a few options for what you can place an indoor sauna on:

• Tile: Ceramic or porcelain tiles are a popular choice for sauna bases due to their durability, water resistance, and easy maintenance. Tiles are also available in a variety of designs to match your home's aesthetic.
• Concrete: Similar to outdoor use, concrete can be used as a base for indoor saunas. It's strong, durable, and resistant to water and heat. You can also finish it with sealant or paint for a more polished look.
• Vinyl: Vinyl flooring is another option for sauna bases. It's water-resistant and fairly easy to clean. However, be sure to choose a vinyl that can withstand the high temperatures generated by the sauna.
• Wood: Certain types of wood, like cedar, can be used as a base for indoor saunas. Cedar is resistant to decay and can withstand high temperatures and moisture, making it ideal for sauna use. However, it needs to be correctly treated and maintained to ensure longevity.

The flooring should not only be strong and heat-resistant. Please also consider the slipping conditions to ensure safety when the floor gets wet.

Golden Designs Saunas are designed for easy assembly and integration into your home. Golden Designs Copenhagen uses two different electricals. One for the actual sauna which is a dedicated 120V/15amp breaker and outlet, and one for the stove which is a dedicated 240V/30amp breaker and outlet.

Preparing your home for a sauna is a standard task that a certified electrician can easily manage. Similar to setting up a dishwasher or an air conditioner, they'll establish a dedicated circuit. The associated cost usually aligns with other routine household electrical installations. For an accurate quote tailored to your specific circumstances, call/email a few local electrician.

The Golden Designs Copenhagen uses a Harvia KIP 6KW Traditional Sauna Stove with Built in Controls that can reach a maximum temperature of 190°F, but you can adjust the temperature to your preference.

Both infrared and steam saunas aim to improve overall wellness through the application of heat, their differences in the type of heat they generate lead to distinct experiences and benefits

• Infrared Saunas: Emit infrared light absorbed as radiant heat directly by your skin. This direct warmth provides deep, soothing effects on muscles and joints, promoting relaxation and recovery. Although their temperature peaks at about 145°F, it's the direct, penetrating heat that creates an effective and comfortable sauna experience.
• Steam Saunas: Heat the air to around 190°F, stimulating deep sweating and detoxification. Pouring water on sauna stones generates steam, adding humidity for an invigorating sauna experience.

In essence, the lower temperature of infrared saunas can still deliver a potent sauna experience due to direct heat absorption. Whether you prefer the deep, direct warmth of an infrared sauna or the intense, humid heat of a traditional sauna, both can enrich your wellness routine in different ways. To explore these unique benefits further, our detailed blog post provides an in-depth comparison.

To estimate the cost of running a Golden Designs Sauna, you need to know its power rating in kilowatts (kW) and the cost of electricity in your area. Golden Designs Saunas typically range from 1.5 to 2.5 kW for their smaller saunas (1-3 persons), and up to 3.0 kW for larger ones (4+ persons). Let's consider an example with a sauna using 2.0 kW. Assuming the average cost of electricity is $0.13 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) and you use your sauna for one hour each day, the cost of running your sauna would be: 2.0 kW * 1 hour * $0.13 per kWh = $0.26 So, it would cost roughly 26 cents for each hour of use. Over a month (30 days), this adds up to $7.80. Remember, this is a rough estimate. The actual cost can vary based on the specific model of your sauna, your local electricity rates, and how frequently and how long you use the sauna.

You control the humidity by adding water to the hot stones. If you don't add water, you'll experience a dry heat with around 5-15% humidity. By adding a lot of water to the stones, you can increase the humidity close to 100%, creating a wet sauna experience. This allows you to have both wet and dry sauna experiences in one, simply by adjusting the amount of water added to the stones.

The Golden Designs Copenhagen Steam Sauna takes approximately 30 minutes to heat up.

The Golden Designs Copenhagen Steam Sauna is designed to provide a holistic wellness experience. Regular sessions can improve cardiovascular health, assist with weight management, promote healthier skin, reduce stress levels, and aid in better sleep.

Regular sauna use can help to elevate mood, reduce stress, and improve overall well-being. The heat helps to release endorphins, the body's natural 'feel good' chemicals, promoting a sense of relaxation and contentment.

Using a sauna, especially in the afternoon or evening, can help to promote better sleep. The post-cooling effect after a sauna session can help to align with your body’s natural cooling down period before sleep, aiding in falling asleep faster and promoting deeper, more restful sleep.

The heat generated by the sauna increases your heart rate, similar to the effect of a cardiovascular workout, helping to burn calories. However, it's important to note that while saunas can support weight loss as part of a balanced lifestyle, they are not a substitute for regular exercise and a healthy diet.

The heat from the sauna helps to open up the pores and promote sweating, which assists in the removal of toxins and impurities from the skin. Regular sauna use can lead to improvements in the appearance of your skin, including a decrease in signs of aging, and can promote a healthy, radiant complexion.

Regular use of sauna can improve cardiovascular health by reducing risk of cardiovascular events and stroke. The heat from the sauna increases your heart rate, similar to light exercise, and can help improve blood circulation. It's important to note, however, that individuals with existing heart conditions should consult with a healthcare provider before using a sauna.
