Traditional and Infrared Sauna Options
Traditional saunas heat the air to 80 to 100 degrees Celsius using electric heaters topped with stones, creating the authentic Finnish experience of high heat and low humidity. Infrared cabins use carbon or ceramic panels to warm your body directly at lower ambient temperatures of 45 to 60 degrees, offering a gentler session that many users find more comfortable for longer durations. Research in Mayo Clinic Proceedings links three to four sauna sessions per week to the greatest cardiovascular benefit, regardless of heat type. Your choice depends on personal preference: traditional saunas deliver intense heat and the ritual of water on stones, while infrared models warm up faster and cost under one pound per session to run at current UK electricity rates.
Both sauna types arrive fully assembled in panels that you connect on site, with illustrated instructions and all fixings included. Traditional models require adequate ventilation and may need a dedicated electrical circuit for larger heaters, so we recommend consulting a qualified electrician before installation. Infrared units typically plug into standard sockets and need only a flat, dry floor space with clearance around all sides. Every sauna uses the same premium Canadian hemlock throughout, ensuring consistent quality whether you select a compact one-person cabin or a spacious four-person family model delivered to your Hereford address.
Clear-Grade Canadian Hemlock Construction
Every panel uses clear-grade Canadian hemlock selected for minimal knots and consistent grain. This premium timber naturally resists warping and resin bleeding even at traditional sauna temperatures, ensuring your cabin remains structurally sound and visually appealing throughout 15 to 20 years of regular use in UK humidity conditions.
Handcrafted Tongue-and-Groove Joinery
Experienced craftspeople cut and assemble every joint by hand using traditional tongue-and-groove methods that allow timber to expand and contract with temperature changes. This joinery technique eliminates gaps and drafts while creating the tight seal essential for heat retention, reducing running costs and maintaining consistent temperatures throughout your session.
Made to Order for Your Space
We build each sauna only after you confirm dimensions, capacity and heater specifications, allowing full customisation to fit your available space. This made-to-order approach means you receive a cabin tailored precisely to your requirements rather than compromising with stock sizes, maximising both comfort and the efficiency of your installation.

Installing Your Sauna in Hereford Properties
Most Hereford homes can accommodate a sauna provided you have a flat, dry floor space with adequate clearance around all sides for ventilation and maintenance access. Infrared models typically require only 10 to 15 centimetres of clearance and connect to standard UK 13-amp sockets, making them suitable for spare bedrooms, conservatories or garage conversions without major electrical work. Traditional saunas need more robust ventilation and may require a dedicated electrical circuit for heaters above 3 kilowatts, so we recommend consulting a qualified electrician before finalising your order. Outdoor installations require a level base such as a concrete pad or decking with proper drainage, and benefit from a small roof overhang to protect the door and window from direct rainfall.
Assembly involves connecting pre-finished panels using the supplied fixings, a process most buyers complete in four to six hours with basic tools and a helper. The tongue-and-groove joinery aligns naturally, requiring no specialist carpentry skills. Once assembled, you connect the heater and controls following the wiring diagram, then perform a test heat cycle before first use. Traditional saunas reach operating temperature in 30 to 45 minutes, while infrared cabins warm up in 10 to 15 minutes. Running costs average two to three pounds per session for traditional models and under one pound for infrared units at current UK electricity rates, making daily use affordable.

How long does delivery take for the sauna Hereford?
Delivery takes approximately 60 days from the date you confirm your order and specifications. This lead time reflects the made-to-order nature of every Gravity Wellness sauna, with craftspeople handcrafting your specific unit using tongue-and-groove joinery in clear-grade Canadian hemlock. We coordinate a convenient delivery date directly with you as your sauna nears completion, providing tracking information and ensuring someone is available to receive the package at your Hereford address.
What timber is used to build the sauna Hereford?
Every sauna Hereford is built entirely from clear-grade Canadian hemlock, a premium softwood selected for its natural resistance to warping and resin bleeding at high temperatures. This timber performs reliably in both traditional saunas reaching 80 to 100 degrees Celsius and infrared cabins operating at 45 to 60 degrees. Canadian hemlock displays minimal knots and consistent grain, ensuring both structural integrity and visual appeal throughout an expected lifespan of 15 to 20 years in UK conditions.
Does the sauna Hereford require professional installation?
Most buyers complete installation without professional help, as assembly involves connecting pre-finished panels using supplied fixings and following illustrated instructions. The tongue-and-groove joinery aligns naturally, requiring only basic tools and a second person to assist with lifting panels. Infrared models typically connect to standard UK 13-amp sockets without electrical work. Traditional saunas may need a qualified electrician to assess your circuit capacity and install a dedicated supply if the heater exceeds 3 kilowatts, a requirement we clarify during the quotation process.
What size space do I need for the sauna Hereford?
Space requirements depend on the model you select, with one-person cabins occupying approximately 1 metre by 1 metre and four-person models requiring roughly 2 metres by 1.5 metres of floor space. All saunas need an additional 10 to 15 centimetres of clearance around each side for ventilation and maintenance access. Ceiling height should accommodate the cabin plus clearance, typically 2 metres total. We provide exact dimensions during quotation, allowing you to confirm fit before ordering your made-to-order sauna Hereford unit.
What warranty covers the sauna Hereford?
Gravity Wellness provides warranty coverage on all timber, joinery and components, with specific terms detailed in your order confirmation and product documentation. Canadian hemlock construction typically lasts 15 to 20 years in UK conditions when maintained according to the care instructions provided.
