The energy-efficient sauna alternative

In addition to its many health benefits, an infrared sauna is also an energy-efficient choice. Infrared technology uses less electricity than many common household appliances, making it a cost-effective and eco-friendly option for daily relaxation.

How infrared heat works

Unlike traditional saunas, where the air is heated to warm the body, an IR sauna provides direct heat through infrared radiation. This means that the warmth penetrates deeper, giving you an intense heat experience without needing to raise the air temperature as much.

Since infrared panels heat objects and organic material rather than the air, they work similarly to the sun warming a cold winter’s day. As a result, there’s no need to wait for the cabin to heat up—you can step in and enjoy the benefits immediately!

Energy savings compared to a traditional sauna

Traditional saunas typically operate at temperatures between 65–90°C, with an average session lasting about an hour. A small sauna room generally consumes 4–5 kWh, depending on its size, materials, and desired temperature.

In comparison,Tylö's Infrared cabin Tylösand ™ requires only 1.5–2 kWh per hour, making it a significantly more energy-efficient alternative.

Planet-friendly relaxation

Even with daily use, infrared technology consumes minimal electricity, making it a smart choice for both your wallet and the environment. By choosing an infrared cabin, you get all the benefits of heat therapy while keeping your energy consumption low.
