FAQs
Is a heater included with the SaunaLife EE6G?
No. The EE6G is sold heater-ready, so you can choose a compatible 6–8 kW electric sauna heater separately based on your preferred controls and installation plan.
How many people fit comfortably in the EE6G?
The EE6G is designed for up to 4 bathers. It offers a roomier interior feel than many smaller barrel sauna kits because of its 91-inch diameter.
Does the Wi-Fi lighting require special wiring?
No. The included LED system is low-voltage 24 V DC and includes its own driver, remote, and cable kit. Follow the included installation instructions and keep components outside high-heat zones where required.
What kind of base should I install the EE6G on?
A solid, level base such as concrete, pavers, or a reinforced deck is recommended. Good drainage is important for long-term outdoor performance.
How should I maintain the Thermo-Spruce wood?
Apply the included paraffin oil to benches and backrests before first use and re-oil exterior surfaces as needed if you want to preserve the original tone. Otherwise, the exterior can naturally weather over time.
