A 4 person sauna comes with multiple heating plates to ensure a deep and relaxing heat throughout the sauna. Many families are already enjoying the relaxation and health benefits that come with owning a sauna.

When looking for your own 4 person sauna it’s best not to scrimp on the important things such as the material the sauna is made of. Quality saunas are made from either cedar wood or Burmese hemlock, both of which have a very fine wood grain and smooth texture. The fine grain is important as it keeps the wood from absorbing too much moisture which could cause warping and cracking.

Most 4 person saunas are made here in the US and go for over $4000, however you will find cheaper saunas that are made in China for under $2500. The decision is up to you, but I would suggest going with the US made sauna as the craftsmanship and materials are generally far superior to those made in China. Even the design of the Chinese made saunas is poor compared with the US made saunas. The poorer quality materials in Chinese made saunas results in less benefits from the heat and steam of the sauna.

You’ll find that the most common material for the heating plates of the 4 person sauna is ceramic. Some manufacturers use carbon or aluminum for the heaters, but ceramic has been shown to be the superior material for emitting infrared heat. Check to see how many plates are used as there should be at least 6 heating plates used in a 4 person sauna to ensure an even and all over distribution of heat throughout the sauna. The plates should also be distributed from the top to the floor of the sauna.
