Each unit is built using traditional tongue-and-groove joinery by experienced craftspeople, with an approximately 60-day lead time from order confirmation to delivery.

All models are delivered complete to mainland England, Scotland and Wales, with no hidden delivery surcharges or unexpected installation complications. The made-to-order approach ensures every sauna Preston delivery meets exact spatial requirements and finish preferences, rather than forcing customers to adapt existing spaces to accommodate stock dimensions that rarely suit UK room layouts perfectly Single person infrared models.
At a glance
How Traditional and Infrared Saunas Work
Traditional saunas heat ambient air using electric or wood-fired heaters, reaching temperatures between 80 and 100 degrees Celsius to induce deep perspiration and cardiovascular response. Infrared saunas use ceramic or carbon panels to emit infrared wavelengths that penetrate skin directly, warming the body at lower ambient temperatures of 45 to 60 degrees Celsius while still triggering therapeutic sweating. Research in Mayo Clinic Proceedings indicates that 3 to 4 sessions per week deliver the greatest cardiovascular benefit, regardless of heating method. Both approaches are available in made-to-order configurations from Gravity Wellness, with capacity ranging from single-person units to four-person family installations.
For UK buyers in Preston, infrared models offer the advantage of operation on a standard 13-amp plug without requiring dedicated electrical circuits or expensive rewiring in most cases. Traditional saunas deliver the authentic high-heat experience preferred by purists but may require electrical assessment depending on heater size. Both types are constructed in Canadian hemlock with an expected lifespan of 15 to 20 years in UK conditions. Running costs for traditional models average 2 to 3 pounds per session, while infrared units typically cost under 1 pound at current UK electricity rates.
Clear-Grade Canadian Hemlock Construction
Every sauna is built from clear-grade Canadian hemlock selected for minimal knots and natural resistance to warping at high temperatures. This timber choice eliminates the resin bleed common in cheaper softwoods, ensuring clean surfaces and consistent performance across a 15 to 20 year lifespan in UK humidity conditions.
Made to Order Build Process
Each sauna Preston order is handcrafted to specification rather than pulled from warehouse stock, allowing precise dimensional matching to available floor space and finish preferences. The approximately 60-day build time ensures tongue-and-groove joinery is completed without rushing, and every electrical component is tested before dispatch to your address.
Mainland UK Delivery Included
Delivery to Preston and all mainland England, Scotland and Wales addresses is included in the purchase price, with no surcharges for distance or access complications. Each sauna arrives with comprehensive assembly instructions, and most models are designed for confident DIY installation without specialist contractors or expensive call-out fees.

Practical Guidance for Preston Sauna Buyers
Space requirements vary by capacity, with single-person units requiring approximately 1 metre by 1 metre of floor space and four-person models needing 2 metres by 1.8 metres or more depending on bench configuration. Ceiling height should allow at least 1.9 metres clearance for comfortable seated use. Traditional saunas benefit from placement on solid flooring with ventilation to exterior where possible, while infrared models are more flexible and often suitable for bedroom or bathroom installation on standard flooring. Most infrared models operate on a standard UK 13-amp socket, but larger traditional heaters may require electrical assessment and potentially a dedicated circuit installed by a qualified electrician to meet current wiring regulations safely.
UK buyers in Preston should consider usage patterns when selecting between traditional and infrared models. Traditional saunas deliver authentic high-heat bathing at 80 to 100 degrees Celsius but require longer pre-heating periods and higher running costs of 2 to 3 pounds per session. Infrared models heat rapidly, cost under 1 pound per session and operate at gentler 45 to 60 degrees Celsius, making them suitable for daily use without significant energy expenditure. Both types provide the cardiovascular and relaxation benefits documented in peer-reviewed research.
