How does infrared sauna work?
Infrared heaters in the sauna emit FAR Infrared heat which is a narrow band of energy within the 5.6 to 15 micron level. This type of energy closely resembles the natural human spectrum so it’s easily absorbed by the body tissue.
The body reacts by sweating profusely which has many health benefits including detoxification, improved blood flow, circulation and weight loss.
Do SunRay Saunas emit EMF?
SunRay, unlike many manufacturers, does not use wires to conduct FAR Infrared heat, rather we apply the perfect thickness of ultra-conductive carbon to an epoxy resin panel activated by positive and negative copper strips on either side.
Laminating the epoxy resin panel results in ultra low EMF levels that are safe for continuous use.
How is the sauna packaged?
SunRay Saunas contain wooden panels that are pre-packaged in cardboard boxes and then placed on a wooden pallet to ensure the sauna arrives without damage.
You can remove the cardboard boxes from the pallet and they will fit through any door size 24” or greater.
Does the sauna come pre-assembled?
SunRay Saunas are not pre-assembled. Furthermore, they arrive in panels which are secured together with screws and metal latches. Assembly takes approximately one hour.

How do I clean the sauna?
First, unplug the sauna and make sure it is cool before cleaning. To clean the wooden interior of your sauna mix 3 teaspoons of baking soda into a gallon of warm water. Use a towel to wipe down the interior with the baking soda and water mixture.
Next, wipe the sauna down with a wet towel and let dry. You can clean the glass in your sauna with glass cleaner. If you have an outdoor sauna, use a standard garden hose on a low/mist setting to wash out the interior. Therefore make sure to leave the door open so the sauna can dry.
How often do I need to clean the sauna?
The sauna should be cleaned every 6 months or at your discretion if you are using it regularly. Sitting on a towel while in the sauna will capture a lot of sweat and thereby reduce the frequency of cleaning the sauna.
