Everything about Thuiswellness's compact steam saunas
Which steam saunas do you offer?
We offer two models: the Compact Round Steam Sauna (€2,699) and the Compact Oval Steam Sauna (€3,149). Both are made of knot-free thermo-aspen wood and include a steam generator, remote control, and essential oil infuser.
What is the difference between the round and oval saunas?
The main difference lies in space and suitability for taller users:
Round sauna — 130×78×78 cm, 65 kg, suitable for body lengths up to 182 cm. Ideal for a compact setup.
Oval sauna — 130×100×78 cm, 82 kg, suitable for body lengths up to 215 cm. Offers more seating comfort with armrests, footrest, and a double-opening lid.
Round sauna — 130×78×78 cm, 65 kg, suitable for body lengths up to 182 cm. Ideal for a compact setup.
Oval sauna — 130×100×78 cm, 82 kg, suitable for body lengths up to 215 cm. Offers more seating comfort with armrests, footrest, and a double-opening lid.
How much space do I need for a steam sauna?
The round sauna has a footprint of 78×78 cm and the oval sauna of 130×100 cm. Additionally, allow some extra space around the sauna for use and maintenance. Both models are compact enough for a bedroom, bathroom, or living room.
How long does it take for the sauna to reach temperature?
The steam sauna reaches the desired temperature within approximately 20 minutes. You can switch on the sauna in advance while preparing for your session.
What is the maximum temperature of the sauna?
The maximum temperature is 65°C. For most users, a temperature of 45°C is the most pleasant and recommended. You can set the temperature via 9 power levels on the remote control.
How much water does the sauna consume per session?
The sauna consumes approximately 1.5 liters of water per session. The steam generator has a 4-liter tank, which is more than sufficient for a full session. The sauna gives a warning for low water levels thanks to its built-in low water protection.
How long can I stay in the sauna per session?
The timer is adjustable up to 99 minutes. We advise beginners to start with 15 to 20 minutes and gradually increase. Always listen to your body and leave the sauna if you feel dizzy or uncomfortable.
Can I use essential oils in the sauna?
Yes, both saunas come with an essential oil infuser — an iron tray inside the sauna. Add a few drops of pure essential oil to the tray for a wonderful aromatherapy experience during your session. Use only 100% pure essential oils.
What connection do I need for the sauna?
The sauna operates on a standard 220V connection — just a normal power socket. No special wiring or installer is needed. The steam generator has a power of 2 kW.
Can I place the sauna in the bathroom?
Yes, the sauna is suitable for use in the bathroom, provided there is adequate ventilation. Ensure a dry and well-ventilated space. Never place the sauna directly under a shower or in a space where water can splash onto the steam generator.
How is the sauna delivered?
The sauna is delivered within 5 to 7 business days, including VAT and delivery. Please note: delivery time for saunas differs from massage chairs (48 hours). You will receive a track & trace as soon as the shipment is on its way.
What is the warranty on the saunas?
All Thuiswellness saunas come with a 5-year warranty. For questions or problems, you can reach us via info@thuiswellness.nl or 06-18150494. We respond within 30 minutes.
How do I maintain the steam sauna?
Wipe the inside with a dry cloth after use to remove moisture. Always allow the sauna to dry thoroughly with the lid open after use. Empty the steam generator tank regularly if you are not using the sauna for an extended period. You can periodically treat the wood with linseed oil to keep it in top condition.
Is the sauna suitable for people with health issues?
People with cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, a pacemaker, or during pregnancy should always consult their doctor before using a steam sauna. If in doubt, start with short sessions at a low temperature.
Do I have to assemble the sauna myself?
The sauna is delivered fully assembled — you do not need to build it. The only thing you need to do is connect the steam generator to a normal power socket (220V). This is simple and done within minutes.
Can I view the oval sauna in the showroom?
