5 Must-Have Infrared Sauna Features Found in all High Tech Health Saunas

When it comes to investing in an infrared sauna, prioritizing features that enhance health benefits, safety, and comfort is essential. High Tech Health’s Transcend® saunas are designed with these priorities in mind, offering advanced technologies and thoughtful craftsmanship. Here are five must have features to look for in your infrared sauna:

1. Truly Low EMF for Optimal Health

Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are a concern in electronic devices, including saunas if the EMF has not been mitigated. High Tech Health saunas address this by incorporating our patented Triple Antifield™ technology, which significantly reduces both electric and magnetic fields.

3rd party independent testing has shown that our saunas emit EMF levels at a maximum of 0.09 V/m for electric fields and 0.40 mG for magnetic fields, which are both far below the recommended safety limits and the very lowest total EMF you will find for any infrared sauna! This low EMF environment supports detoxification, cellular health, and overall well-being during your sauna sessions. Learn more about our heaters and EMF here.

2. 100% Solid Wood Construction for Purity and Durability

The materials used in sauna construction can impact both health and longevity. High Tech Health exclusively uses 100% solid poplar or hemlock wood, avoiding particle board and plywood, which can emit harmful formaldehyde.

Poplar is known for its hypoallergenic properties and minimal wood smell, making it ideal for those sensitive to odors. Hemlock offers a traditional sauna aesthetic with a subtle wood scent.

We also use tongue and groove construction built to millimeter tolerances which makes our saunas last for decades! Learn more about our woods here.

3. Active Ventilation with a Fan for Air Circulation

Proper air circulation is crucial in a sauna to prevent the buildup of carbon dioxide and maintain oxygen levels. High Tech Health saunas are the only saunas on the market that feature an active ventilation system that is proven to reduce CO₂ levels by 46% compared to the passive ventilation used in other saunas.

This ensures a comfortable and breathable environment, prevents claustrophobia, and enhances the detoxification process and overall sauna experience.

4. Efficient Heaters That Emit More Far Infrared Light

The effectiveness of an infrared sauna mainly depends on the quality of its heaters. High Tech Health’s patented Ideal Spectrum™ heaters are proven to emit more far infrared light and are 34% more effective than traditional panel heaters.

This means our saunas heat up faster, reach a higher maximum temperature, offer superior energy efficiency, and most importantly make you sweat sooner, sweat more, and gain more health benefits in our saunas! Learn more about our heaters here.

5. Earthing Mat for Enhanced Wellness

Earthing, or grounding, involves connecting your body to the Earth’s natural electric charge (i.e. absorbing free electrons), which has been shown in over 100 studies to help reduce inflammation, improve circulation, relax muscles, and reduce stress which then sets you into an ideal space for detoxification and healing in your sauna.

High Tech Health is the only company that offers an earthing mat that can be used during sauna sessions. This mat connects to the sauna’s bench heater and connects into a grounded outlet, allowing you to experience the benefits of earthing while also enjoying the sauna’s therapeutic effects.

Final Thoughts

Having these features in your infrared sauna will significantly enhance your health and wellness journey. High Tech Health’s commitment to innovation and quality ensures that our saunas provide the safest, most effective, and most comfortable environment for detoxification, healing, and relaxation.
