SPECTRUM SERIES INSTALLATION & OWNER’S MANUAL
Thank you for your purchase of your Spectrum Series Sauna. Should you have any questions during assembly, please feel free to give us a call at
888.355.3050, or email [email protected]. Regular business hours are 9-5 EST, M-F.
This manual applies to the Spectrum V1000 & V2000 infrared sauna models. The panel and bench sizes will be dierent, but the assembly
process is the same. Any dierences will be noted.
1: Lay out All Sauna Components
The packaging includes oor panel, multiple wall panels, pre-assembled bench sections, and roof panel with dust cover as well as a hardware
kit containing all necessary assembly equipment to build your sauna. (Note: you will have extra screws after assembly.) Make sure wall panels
are right-side-up by verifying that the pre-positioned power cords emerge from your sauna at the top.
2: Position the Floor Panel
Prior to assembly, select a location within reach of a power outlet and pay attention to the orientation of the door to make sure nothing will
block it. Place the oor panel on a level surface, being sure the gray door footer is positioned in the front. To avoid damaging your oor, do not
move your sauna post-assembly. (Image 1)
3: Install the Quartz Heater Assembly & Control
3a. Locate the back panel and lay it against a wall so the light housing is facing out. Take the cylindrical packaging from the hardware kit and
gently remove the quartz light. Install it into the housing by gently pushing one end of the light against the spring, sliding the opposite end of
the light over the opposite spring and releasing (Image 2). Using the athead end of the included screwdriver, gently pry the metal lip up and
carefully insert the ceramic heating plate (Image 3). Now install the exterior plate by positioning the grooves on the plate on top of the teeth
on the housing (Image 4). Applying a small amount of inward pressure on the plate, slide it down to securely fasten (Image 5).

3b. Now remove the original pre-installed Veegee plate located just above the quartz heater housing and replace it with the power indicator
plate included in your hardware kit using the provided screws (Images 6 & 7).
3c. Gently ip the back panel, again leaning it against a wall (Image 8). Remove the grill plate to gain access to the quartz heater control-box
housing (Image 9). Now locate the quartz heater control-box in your hardware kit and connect to the two power cords within the housing
(Image 10). Insert the knob through the hole of the backside of the power indicator plate you installed in step 3b and fasten the control box to
the panel using the provided screws (Image 11). Re-secure the grill plate.
Step 4: Place the Back, Left and Right Panels
4a. Place the back panel in place on the oor panel ensuring the heater plugs are on the inside of the sauna and the sauna power cord is on the
outside (Image 12). Having a helper hold the back section upright, place the left section (distinguished by the control panel) on the oor panel
being sure it overlaps the back panel (Image 13). Using the provided 5x50 fasteners, attach the left and back panel using the pre-drilled holes
(Image 14). Now do the same for the right panel (Image 15). Attach one of the heater plugs from the base of the back panel to the oor-heating
panel (Image 16). Leave the other as it will be used for the bench heater.
Locate the back of the control panel on the back of the left side panel and remove the cover. Find the provided media card from your hardware
kit and align the semi-circle notches on the card with the semi-circles on the bracket and push into place, being sure the connection is secure.
Replace the cover (Images 17 & 18). Place dial on the spectrum heater control knob you installed in step 3c (Image 19).

Step 5: Install Back Heating Panel and Benches
5a. Locate the back heating panel and orient it so the LED light is facing up (Image 20). Line up the back heating panel such that its uppermost
slat sits in the uppermost groove of the side heating panels (Image 21). Connect LED (Image 22) and heater plugs (Image 23) and push ush
against the back panel (Image 24) so that the magnets on the back heating panel secure to the metal plates on the back panel (Image 25).
5b. Now locate and position the front bench heating panel and connect it to the remaining power source coming from the back panel (Images
26 & 27). Locate, position, and secure bench supports to the back, front bench, and oor panels using the provided wood screws (Images 28
& 29). Secure the 90-degree brackets to the front bench heating panel and bench supports (Image 30). Finally, insert upper bench section and
push it ush against the back panel (Image 31).

Note: The upper bench section does not
need fastening, but if you wish you may
secure it to the front bench underneath
using 3-4” screws (not provided) in
between the bench slats. (Image 32)

Step 6: Attach Front Panels
Locate the front panels noting which one is labeled for right and left. To install, push each one ush against its corresponding side panel and
secure them using the 5x50 fasteners through the predrilled holes. (Images 33 & 34)
Step 7: Install Ceiling Panel
7a. Lay ceiling panel on top of the sauna (Image 35), orienting it so the power box is facing up and located at the back of the sauna. Feed all
existing wires through the corresponding holes on the ceiling panel (Image 36) and connect speaker, fan, and LED wires (Image 37) Now connect
the main power (Image 38) and the heater plugs (Image 39).
Note: The V1000 model has 5 heater plugs while the V2000 model has 6 heater plugs.
7b. Attach the ceiling to the walls using the 5x70 fasteners with washers through the pre-drilled holes (Image 40). Install the header to the ceiling
panel using two 5x50 fasteners through the pre-drilled holes (Images 41 & 42).
7c. Position the dust panel over top of the ceiling, being sure all wiring is underneath the panel with the exception of the radio antenna, laying it
on top of the dust panel (Image 43). Fasten to the ceiling panel with the dust panel screws (Image 44).

Note: For the Spectrum V2000 model install the side window with optional rubber gaskets before moving on to step 8. Slide the window into
the grooves of the header and footer (Images 45, 46, & 47). Optional gaskets have been provided to cushion the window as it sits in the grooves.
Simply t gaskets into the grooves of the header and footer, and slide the window into the gaskets.
Step 8. Exterior Panel & Trim Installation
Take o all packaging from the exterior panels. To install, position the teeth on the inside of the panel several inches above the teeth on the
sauna (Image 48). Applying pressure to both the front and side sections, rmly slide down into place (Image 49). Note: All teeth may not catch; as
long as the exterior panel sits securely against the sauna the connection will be sucient.
Position pieces of trim behind the lip of the exterior panels so that the 45-degree cuts are meeting
each other at the corner of the sauna. (Image 50) Continue assembly of exterior panels.
Step 9: Door and Handle installation (You may nd it benecial to have a helper assist with this step)
9a. Securely fasten the door pivots to the header and footer, being sure the ridged pivot is on the footer (Image 51 & 52). Then install the
magnetic doorstop to the header (Image 53).

9b. Place the clear rubber gasket onto the at side of all four hinge components, being sure the holes of the gasket line up with the holes for the
bolts (Images 54 & 55).
Rest the lower hinge on the lower pivot (Images 56 & 57) With a helper holding the door, align the lower holes in the glass up to the lower hinge,
position the back plate over the glass and join the three components by lightly tightening the bolts into the hinge (Images 58 & 59) Do not
completely tighten bolts into the hinge yet.
While your helper continues to hold the door, place the upper hinge on its pivot and support it while you line up the door, place the back-plate
and join them all together by lightly tightening the bolts into the hinge (Images 60 & 61)
9c. Install the door handle with the wood handle inside the sauna. Install pieces as they are laid out in Image 62. (Images 63 & 64)

9d. Step inside the sauna and have your helper close the door. If the door catches on the hinge pivots or the exterior panels, pull on the door
handle to slide the glass as necessary so that it closes unhindered. Now, from the inside of the sauna, completely tighten the hinge bolts to
secure the door position (Images 65 & 66).
9e. Peel o the adhesive cover on the face-plate and place over the back-plate on both hinges (Image 67). Remove the adhesive cover inside the
door magnet and place on the glass (Image 68). Close door to ensure header magnet and door magnet align.
Note: This sauna requires a dedicated 20amp outlet. For US customers, this will require the use of an adapter that can be purchased separately at
your hardware store. (Image 69)
