The heater, the heart of the sauna
Determine the heart of your private sauna, the heater. Do you prefer more Finnish hot or gentler sauna? The heat of the Finnish stove stands for a pristine sauna experience. The bio sauna, on the other hand, with its lower temperature and higher humidity, is suitable for a longer stay and thus for a variety of therapies. Relaxation at the touch of a button is provided by the user-friendly wellness control for climate, light and music.

Which rooms are suitable for installing a sauna at home?
Basically, all rooms are suitable for the installation of a sauna at home: from the cellar to the attic. Even rooms with structural peculiarities, such as roof beams, chimneys, wall slopes or windows can become a wellness retreat - after all, all Küng saunas are custom-made for you. This means that the sauna adapts to your home and your needs, not the other way around. The only technical requirement is a power connection and the possibility to ventilate the room well. If there is not enough space in the house, you can install an outdoor sauna in the garden or on the terrace: In the arbour, in the garden shed or tool shed - Küng Sauna has still found a convincing solution.
How much space does a sauna need at home?
The average size for a private home sauna is 2.2 x 2.0 m - but other dimensions are also possible. Customisation is standard at Küng Sauna. This means that the ultimate wellness experience is also possible in the smallest of spaces, for example with our model Infraflex® Trias. Trias offers great wellness pleasure in the smallest of spaces.
What structural requirements must be met for sauna installation?
The room in which the sauna for the home is installed should ideally be 20 cm higher than the planned sauna cabin. When placing the technology and sockets above the sauna, there should be a height difference of 40 cm between the sauna ceiling and the room ceiling. The floor, however, is of particular importance: it must be flat and easy to clean with a damp cloth. Natural stone, ceramic tiles, linoleum or paint are particularly suitable; a sealed or oiled wooden or cork floor is also suitable under certain conditions. In addition, electricity supply and sufficient ventilation are important prerequisites for sauna installation at home. Of course, a given building situation can also be optimised before the sauna is installed.
Which elements should be planned?
A sauna usually consists of the following separate areas in the public area: Changing area and sanitary facilities, sauna cabin, cooling showers (or dipping vats etc.) and a rest area. In a private sauna it is sufficient to have a shower and a rest area next to the sauna. Everything else is a plus in comfort that can, but does not have to be.
What should I look for when buying a sauna?
Above all, the topic of energy saving plays a central role. Not only for the protection of the environment, but also to keep the running costs of a sauna as low as possible. Küng saunas therefore have a multi-layered structure and an insulated shell that stores heat and releases it evenly inside. In order to minimise energy consumption, Küng has ingeniously designed the heater technology in such a way that the sauna's heating time is significantly reduced. For optimal energy efficiency, great importance is also placed on thermal insulation and the right choice of wood.
Does glass in the sauna affect the climate?
Glass has a low heat storage capacity, that's true. However, glass sauna walls still have little negative impact on the sauna climate. Multi-layered wall constructions made of wood and insulating materials compensate for heat loss through the glass fronts. We recommend that you always choose the proportion of glass in a sauna so that there is a healthy relationship with the wood. After all, wood plays a significant role in creating a pleasant climate.
What needs to be considered for the sauna technology?
The Oven is the heart of the sauna and must be the focus of attention during planning. The choice of the right stove and its location are decisive for the desired sauna experience. The control and its intuitiveness and ease of use are also part of this. Depending on the application area, sauna size and situation, different solutions are possible in terms of performance, design and operation. Modern sauna controls regulate temperature and its constancy, humidity, light intensity and colour, and other forms of therapy. In addition, they offer further conveniences such as pre-selection and selection or remote control via other mobile end devices such as a mobile phone or tablet.
What kind of ventilation is necessary in a sauna?
The supply air is usually ensured via the door gap in the case of glass doors without a seal. In a private sauna, the exhaust air is fed back into the room. This must therefore always be well ventilated. The exhaust air situation is assessed according to the existing situation. In some cases, an additional ventilation system is necessary.
Which wood offers the best sauna climate?
Appearance is one thing - but when choosing wood for the interior of a sauna, you should pay particular attention to its properties. For with the wall and ceiling elements, it is important that the warmth and moisture of the sauna is not lost. The resinous polar pine is particularly suitable here due to its wood quality: its exceptional fibre density and stability as well as its incomparable resinous scent, which lasts for decades, make the knotty polar pine Küng's favourite. Knowledge of the specific properties of different types of wood determines the quality and durability, but also the character of a sauna. Increasingly, however, hardwoods are also finding their way into the sauna, such as light and even aspen wood and noble alder wood.
What arrangement and condition should the sauna benches have?
Sauna loungers must be comfortable and hygienic. That is why Küng Sauna uses European softwoods such as aspen and alder for loungers, which are knot-, resin- and splinter-free and at the same time optimally cope with humidity and high temperature fluctuations. When designing the floor plan, a wide variety of lounger arrangements are conceivable. However, a corner arrangement is ideal: because it is communicative and makes the best possible use of the space.
What guarantee do I get when I buy a Küng sauna?
As a sauna manufacturer, Küng Sauna provides the following guarantees for systems and equipment that have been demonstrably maintained properly: 10 years on sauna cabins, 5 years on the sauna heater, 2 years on the control unit, heating elements and other technical equipment.
Does Küng also manufacture Finnish saunas?
Every Küng sauna is manufactured individually according to the customer's wishes. This also means different equipment options for heater, control and climate. A Finnish sauna heater stands for the original sauna experience with high temperatures, infusion and a strong heat rise. But even with a bio heater, you don't have to do without the Finnish climate. Different climate settings are possible, from the dry-hot Finnish sauna to the gentle bio-climate.
What types of saunas does Küng build?
Every Küng sauna is made to measure. Most of the cabins are manufactured in element construction, from a multi-layer, particularly energy-saving wall construction. This offers many advantages in terms of design, as many customisation options are available and there are practically no design limits. Alternatively, the solid wood or log construction method probably embodies the origin of the sauna tradition best and offers typical Finnish sauna enjoyment.
How can the energy consumption of a sauna be reduced?
The better the insulation and isolation of the sauna cabin, the less heat is lost to the environment. A sauna with thick walls therefore consumes less electricity than models with a thin wall thickness and poor insulation. Both can be improved later to reduce energy consumption. A not too long preheating time of the sauna cabin and regular maintenance also reduce electricity consumption. For example, insufficient air circulation in the heater jacket or porous sauna stones will cause the temperature of the heating elements to rise dramatically. This means an increase in energy consumption due to longer heating phases and a shortened life of the heating elements. If the sauna offers space for several people, simultaneous use is more cost-efficient than single use.
Sauna at home: How much electricity does it consume?
The cost of electricity for the operation of a sauna depends on several factors. The more powerful the heater and larger the sauna, the more energy is needed. For an average sauna evening, the consumption for an average home sauna for 2-4 people is about 9kW. With just under 50 hours of operation per year, the costs for a small sauna with 6.5 kW of power and a price of 0.20 CHF per kWh are just under 65 CHF per year. For the larger versions with 15.5 kW power, the cost of energy consumption rises to about 155 CHF per year. If you compare this with the entrance fees to public saunas or the ecological footprint for the trip to the gym, however, a sauna at home is still an advantage. This is true in terms of cost, health benefits and privacy.
