February 29, 2008, Newsletter Issue #101: The Difference Between a Sauna Heater and a Sauna Stove

Tip of the Week

Sauna heaters and sauna stoves are the most important part of a sauna; choosing one is an important step in your sauna design process. But what is the different between a sauna heater and a sauna stove? And how do you know which one is right for you?

There really isn't much difference between a sauna “heater” and a sauna “stove;” in most cases, the terms are interchangeable. A steam sauna heater can be run by electric, gas, or wood. When referring to electric or gas-power, the term “heater” and “stove” are interchangeable. When referring to wood-power, the term “stove” is usually used, because wood heaters resemble a stove more than electric or gas.

When talking about infrared saunas, the word “heater” is used, because there isn't usually a central heating unit that is visible, like with steam heaters – there really is no “stove.”

To decide which type of heater (or stove) is right for you, decide what kind of heat you want (steam or dry) and then decide how you want to power it. Whatever you call it, your sauna will still be a relaxing experience.

Detoxify with a Sunlight Sauna.

Sweating is the body's safe and natural way to heal and stay healthy. Sweat carries toxins out of the body and carries it through the pores.

Detoxification from a Sunlight Sauna is 7 to 10 times greater than a conventional sauna because it operates more effectively at temperatures 60 to 80 degrees lower than conventional saunas.
In a conventional sauna the average person sweats out 3% toxins and 97% water. In a Sunlight Sauna, the average person sweats out 20% toxins and 80% water!

Other health benefits of sweat with a Sunlight Sauna:
• Body and mind relaxation
• Pain relief
• Weight loss
• Blood circulation
• Skin purification
• Lower blood pressure
