What Are Infrared Rays?
Infrared is the band of light we perceive as heat. We cannot see this band of light with the
naked eye, but we can feel this type of light in the form of heat. Our sun produces most of
its energy output in the infrared segment of the spectrum. Infrared rays heat your body
without having to heat the air in-between. This process is called conversion.
The infrared is divided into 3 segments by wavelengths measured in microns: Near
Infrared –0.76-1.5 microns; Middle Infrared –1.5-5.6 microns; and Far Infrared –5.6-1000
microns. Among these segments, Far Infrared penetrates organic substances such as the
human body two to three inches so that the warming effect is very uniform.
ARE INFRARED RAYS SAFE?
Because infrared rays are part of sunlight, they are not only safe but also highly beneficial
to our bodies on a cellular level. Health professionals have used infrared heat lamps for
decades to treat muscle and joint problems. In hospital baby care units, incubators are
often equipped with infrared heating systems to keep newborn babies warm.
WHAT IS AN ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD (also known as EMF)?
An Electromagnetic Field is a physical field produced by electrically charged objects. It is
one of the fundamental forces of nature. The field can be viewed as the combination of
an electric field and a magnetic field. The electric field is produced by stationary charges
and the magnetic field by moving charges referred to as currents. The magnetic field is
measured in milligauss (mG). Our sauna products have been developed to have low EMF.
Our Low EMF carbon heater panels range between an average of 5mG-10mG at about
two inches from the heater panel, our Ultra Low EMF carbon heater panels range between

4
3mG-5mG, and our Near Zero EMF/Full Spectrum models range at less than 3mG (NIR
heaters range at about 5mG-7mG at the same approximate 2 inches)
EMF Levels from Common Homes Sources
After many years and numerous studies on EMF exposure, no government body including
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) have established permissible
exposure limits (PEL). Currently, there is no consensus on the potential health hazard from
any exposure to EMF. The mainstream scientific evidence suggests that low-power, low-
frequency, electromagnetic radiation associated with household currents like that of the
infrared sauna does not constitute a short- or long-term health hazard.
DISCLAIMER
The infrared rays emitted by your sauna are reported to offer a wide range of possible
therapeutic benefits based on research completed over the last 40 years from all around
the world. These benefits are presented for reference purposes only and no implication of
infrared saunas creating a cure for or treating any disease is implied nor should it be
inferred. If you have a medical/health condition, are taking prescription drugs, or have
acute joint injuries, please consult with your medical physician before using the sauna.
Persons with surgical implants (metal pins/rods, artificial joints, silicone, or other types of
surgical implants) typically do not experience any adverse effects, but should also consult
their medical physician or surgeon before using the sauna room.

HOW IT WORKS
Infrared Saunas differ from traditional saunas in that they use infrared radiant energy to
directly penetrate into the body's tissue to produce perspiration. Traditional saunas use
steam to heat the air inside the sauna, which then heats your body until you begin to
perspire. In order for this to be effective, temperatures would need to reach in the
upwards of 190 degrees Fahrenheit. Infrared saunas only need a temperature of up to 120
degrees Fahrenheit to obtain the same effect. This lower temperature makes the
environment more tolerable and allows you to breathe easier.
Health Benefits
Because infrared rays penetrate the body through conversion, there is a deep heating
effect in both the muscle tissues and internal organs without putting too much burden on
the heart.
Our body reacts to the increased heating through the natural cooling process of perspiring.
Through the perspiration process, acid and waste residue like toxins, sodium, alcohol,
nicotine, cholesterol, and the potentially carcinogenic heavy metals are removed from the
cells (especially zinc, lead, nickel, cadmium, etc.). The pores of our skin open and
discharge waste products shedding any old skin cells leaving the skin glowing and clean,
with improved tone, elasticity, texture, and color.
Health Benefits Include, But Are Not Limited To:
*Pain relief from Rheumatoid Arthritis *Relaxes muscle spasms *Reduces cellulite
*Increases blood circulation *Clears, rashes, acne *Enhances skin tone
*Cardiovascular conditioning *Reduces stress & fatigue *Removes toxins
Sauna Maintenance
Since infrared saunas do not require hot rocks, water, or steam to operate, they require
very little maintenance. You can simply wipe it down with water –use a damp, soft, and
clean cloth. Do not use any chemical based cleaning agents as they can be absorbed
into the wood and be released into your sauna during use.

For easier assembly, please understand and distinguish the differences between
each panel.
A. Floor Panel
When the FLOOR PANEL faces upward, the surface will be flat.
Please note that the front and back sides are the same. (see Figure 4)
Figure 4
B. Understanding the Difference Between the Top and Bottom of the
Wall Panels
The wall panels are in the upright position when the Warning Labels
are closer to the top of the wall panels. In addition, you will see the
heat emitter cords coming from the topside of the wall panels. (see

Assembly Instructions
1. Choose a good location to assembly the sauna
a. The location must be dry, level, and away from any source of water.
b. The dedicated outlet must be easily accessible.
c. Two adults will be needed to assemble.
d. Wood Cabin Assembly: Floor Panel Front Panel Right Side Panel
Left Side Panel Rear Panel Bench Heat
Emitter Panel Bench Roof Panel Roof Cover
The sauna can be assembled in different sequences, but the above is
recommended.
e. Tools Required: Philips screwdriver and ladder
2. Installing the FLOOR PANEL
A. Place the FLOOR PANEL onto your floor where the sauna is to be
assembled. The frontside and backside are the same. (see Figure 6)
Figure 6
3. Installing the FRONT PANEL, RIGHT SIDE PANEL, and LEFT SIDE PANEL
A. Place the FRONT PANEL up against the FLOOR PANEL as seen in Figure
7. There will be a molding at the bottom of the FRONT PANEL that will rest
on the FLOOR PANEL. One adult will need to hold the FRONT PANEL
stationary up against the FLOOR PANEL. The second adult will need to lift
the RIGHT SIDE PANEL up and onto the FRONT WALL PANEL. Once the

17
guide and guide insert brackets are engaged, the RIGHT SIDE PANEL will
need to be pulled downward until the top of both wall panels is flush. The
same will need to be done to install the LEFT SIDE PANEL. Please see
Figure 7. Figure 3 shows the guide and guide insert brackets.
Figure 7
NOTE: If any of the wall panels do not slide all the way down, then follow this tip:
1. First, remove the side wall panel.
2. Locate the guide and guide insert brackets on the two wall panels (6 pieces total).
3. Loosen the screws on the guide and guide insert brackets by two-to-three turns
(so the guide and guide inserts have a slight movement)
4. Reattached the wall panels
The above will help as sometimes the guide and guide insert brackets are
countersunk too deep. Please note that the guide and guide insert brackets slide
together at an angle - as the wall panels slide downward, the guide and guide insert
brackets pull the wall panels tighter together.
4. Installing the REAR PANEL
A. Remove the protection paper (masking tap) from the buckles on the REAR
WALL PANEL. Place the REAR PANEL up against the FLOOR PANEL.
There will be a molding at the bottom of the REAR PANEL that will rest on
the FLOOR PANEL. You may need to open up the RIGHT SIDE PANEL and
LEFT SIDE PANEL to fit the REAR PANEL between the two. Please note
that the REAR PANEL will fit with the RIGHT SIDE PANEL and LEFT SIDE
PANEL like a puzzle as it inserts into both side panels. Once the REAR
PANEL is in place, you can buckle the side panels to the REAR PANEL
using the external buckles. (see Figure 8)

Figure 8
5. Installing the BENCH HEAT EMITTER PANEL and BENCH
A. First, locate the HT1 cord from the Power Supply Box on the REAR PANEL.
The HT1 cord will need to be plugged into the RIGHT SIDE PANEL at the
outlet towards the interior bottom of the wall panel. Next, locate the HT2 cord
from the Power Supply Box on the REAR PANEL. The HT2 cord will need to
be plugged into the LEFT SIDE PANEL at the outlet towards the interior
bottom of the wall panel. Installing the BENCH HEAT EMITTER PANEL can
be a little tricky. You will need to slide the BENCH HEAT EMITTER PANEL
into place at an angle as indicated in Figure 9. After the BENCH HEAT
EMITTER PANEL is installed, you can connect the BENCH HEAT EMITTER
cord into the applicable heater outlet on the Power Supply Box on the REAR
PANEL. Next, slide the BENCH over the BENCH HEAT EMITTER PANEL.
Make sure to slide the BENCH all the way back. (see Figure 9)
Figure 9
6. Installing the FRONT GLASS DOOR HANDLE
A. Now that the FRONT PANEL has already been installed, the inner and
outer door handle pieces will need to be mounted to the FRONT GLASS
DOOR. Please note that the metal section will be mounted on the exterior
and the wood section on the interior. (see Figure 10) Please Note: The
black plastic protective corners around the glass door corners will
need to be removed upon using the sauna.

7. Installing the ROOF PANEL
A. The side of the ROOF PANEL with the power supply (control box) is the top
of the roof panel and the side of the ROOF PANEL with the ceiling vent will
be situated towards the rear of the sauna.
B. Be careful of the wires coming from the top of the SIDE and REAR PANELS
when you set the ROOF PANEL down onto the panels. Feed the wires
through the holes in the ROOF PANEL. Feed the control cable and buzzer
plug up through the ROOF PANEL.
C. Be careful not to force the ROOF PANEL into place. Make sure that the
wires are properly fed through the holes. Pull down on the ROOF PANEL
slightly to make sure it is secured in place. (see Figure 11)
Figure 11
8. Connecting the plugs on the ROOF PANEL
A. Connect all the wires and connectors to the corresponding outlets on the
Roof Panel. Please be sure all the plugs are connected snug and tight. (see
Figure 12)

Figure 12
9. Installing the TEMPERATURE SENSOR
A. Enter the sauna and remove the protective covering (white tape) from the
TEMPERATURE SENSOR. Situate the TEMPERATURE SENSOR so that it
is vertical and pointing downward. (see Figure 13)
Figure 13
Please Note: Some sauna models are shipped with a spare TEMPERATURE SENSOR (inside
the Accessory Box) in the case that the TEMPERATURE SENSOR is damaged during transit.
The manufacturer decides this according to sauna models and packaging.
10. Installing the ROOF DUST COVER (optional)
A. Place the ROOF DUST COVER over the top of the ROOF PANEL. Be
cautious when pulling the power cord through the hole in the ROOF DUST
COVER. When the edges are aligned, screw the ROOF DUST COVER into
place. The installation of the ROOF DUST COVER is optional.
