Sauna Equipment Installation
in the Bay Area

Heaters, digital controls and accessories for Peninsula and Bay Area saunas — sized to your room, installed and wired by one licensed team. We help you choose the right gear; we don't sell you a box and walk away.

The right equipment, sized & wired correctly

A sauna is only as good as its heater, its controls and the way they're wired — and most of that gets decided before anyone picks up a tool.

YOURSAUNAS is a licensed design-build company, and equipment is a real part of what we do: we help you choose the right heater, controls and accessories for your room, then install them and wire the 240V ourselves. We serve homes across the Peninsula and Silicon Valley — Atherton, Palo Alto, Los Altos, Menlo Park, Hillsborough, Saratoga, Marin — and throughout the wider Bay Area.

We don't sell equipment off a shelf. What we do is the harder part: sit down with you, size the heater to your actual room, and recommend the right class of gear for how you'll use it — then install it and run the wiring in-house under our own C-10. Whether you're outfitting a new build or replacing a tired heater in a sauna you already own, you get a unit that fits and a 240V hookup done right — no "coordinate with your own electrician."

Consultation-first · then installed & wired

We get it sized right before we install it.

01

Consult & sizing

We measure your room's cubic volume and finishes, then spec the right heater kW (or steam generator size). Stone, tile and glass hold heat differently than wood and need more power — we account for it, so the unit is never under- or over-sized.

02

Help you choose the right gear

Electric or wood-burning, basic dial or smart control, infrared panel for a tight space — we recommend the right type and quality for how you'll actually use it. Already bought a unit? We'll install what you have.

03

Install to spec

Heater mounted with correct stone loading and guard clearances; steam generator placed for proper delivery and serviceability; lighting and accessories fitted clean.

04 · C-10

240V wiring — in-house

Dedicated circuit, GFCI where required, proper breaker, sealed high-temp connections, heater and control hookup — all done under our own electrical license. No outside electrician, no scheduling gaps, one permit.

05

Controls setup

Digital or smart control mounted and configured: temperature, pre-heat timers so it's hot when you walk in, safety cut-offs, lighting and aroma options paired and tested.

06 · C-20

Ventilation check

We confirm intake and exhaust are right for the heater, so heat is even and the room breathes — a quiet cause of weak löyly and stuffy rooms.

07

Test & commission

We fire it up, bring it to temperature, and verify the controls, the cut-offs and the even heat — not just "powered on."

08

Walkthrough

We show you the controls, the stone care and safe operation, and leave you a clean space with clear instructions.

Worth asking about: low-EMF infrared panels for condos and ADUs where space and ventilation are tight, smart/app controls with pre-heat timers, LED mood lighting, built-in sound, and aromatherapy-ready steam.

Choosing a heater

Which sauna heater brand is right for you?

We install and service every major sauna heater — any brand you buy. These are the makers we're asked about most, and how we'd frame the choice. There's no universal best: the right heater is the one sized to your room and matched to how you'll actually use it.

Brand Known for A strong fit when
Harvia Finland The broad, proven workhorse — Finland's largest heater maker, with the widest range of electric and wood-burning models, from compact home units to commercial. You want a dependable, well-supported heater with options and parts for almost any room.
HUUM Estonia Design-forward heaters with clean, minimal lines and app-based controls — built to be seen, not hidden in a corner. The heater is on show and you want it to look as good as it heats.
IKI Finland A deep bed of stones for a soft, humid, long-lasting löyly — heaters designed around large stone volume. You love a gentle, enveloping heat and steam that holds between ladles.
Narvi Finland Rugged Finnish build with a strong wood-burning lineup alongside its electric models. You're heating an outdoor cabin and want the crackle and aroma of a real wood fire.

We don't sell any of these — our job is to help you choose the right unit for your space, then install it and wire the 240V under our own C-10. Already bought a heater? We'll install what you have.

The moat

Installed and wired by the team that helped you choose it.

Most sauna sellers ship you a box and tell you to "coordinate with your licensed electrician" for the 240V hookup. So when something's wrong, the equipment company blames the wiring and the electrician blames the equipment — and you're stuck in the middle.

We don't work that way. YOURSAUNAS holds the General Contractor, Electrical (C-10) and HVAC (C-20) licenses in-house, so the same team that helps you choose and install your heater also runs the 240V circuit, wires the controls and commissions the whole thing. One accountable team, one permit, one number to call. If it ever needs attention, the people who wired it pick up the phone.

What it costs

Equipment installation starts from $590 for the labor — the equipment itself is billed separately. A straight heater or control replacement is often a same-week job.

Equipment FAQ

Good questions, straight answers.

Yes — YOURSAUNAS installs and wires sauna heaters, controls and accessories of any brand across the Bay Area and Peninsula, including a straight heater or controller replacement. One licensed team sizes the equipment to your room, installs it, and runs the 240V hookup under our own C-10 license — so you get gear that fits and wiring done right, no outside electrician.

Can you replace just my sauna heater or controller?
Yes — this is one of the fastest jobs we do. If your heater won't fire, won't hold temperature, or the controller has died, we'll help you pick a correctly sized replacement, install it and re-wire the 240V hookup ourselves under our C-10 — usually within the same week. You don't need a new sauna to get reliable heat again. (Diagnosing a unit that's misbehaving? See Service & Repair.)
How do you choose the right heater size (kW) for my sauna?
We size the heater to your room's cubic volume — roughly 1 kW per ~45 cubic feet as a starting point — then adjust for your finishes and glass. Stone, tile and large glass panels hold and shed heat differently than an all-wood room and need more power; an exterior wall or high ceiling adds load too. An under-sized heater never gets hot enough and runs constantly; an over-sized one short-cycles and wears out early. We measure your actual room before we spec anything, so the heater matches the space.
Do you wire the equipment, or do I need my own electrician?
We wire it — in-house. We hold the C-10 electrical license, so the same team that installs your heater runs the dedicated 240V circuit, sets the breaker and GFCI, makes the high-temp connections and hooks up the controls. You'll never hear us say "coordinate with your electrician." One team, one permit, one clean inspection.
Do you sell the equipment, or just install it?
We focus on the consultation and the install, not on selling you a box. We'll help you choose the right heater, controls and accessories for your room and how you'll use them, and point you to the gear worth buying — then install it and wire it properly. If you've already bought a unit, even better: we'll install and wire what you have.
Electric or wood-burning heater — which should I get?
Both have a place. Electric is the low-maintenance default for most Peninsula homes — push-button or app start, precise digital temperature, no smoke, no chimney, easy on an indoor or condo build. Wood-burning gives the traditional crackle-and-aroma experience and suits larger lots and outdoor cabins, but needs a flue, clearances and tending. We help you choose and install either — and we run the 240V circuit for the electric option in-house, so there's no waiting on an outside electrician.
Which sauna heater brand is best?
There's no single best — it comes down to your room and how you'll use it. Harvia is the broad, proven workhorse; HUUM leans design-forward with app controls; IKI is built around a big bed of stones for a soft, long-lasting löyly; Narvi is a go-to for wood-burning. We install and service any of them — and other brands — so we'll help you match the heater to your space rather than to a catalog, then size and wire it in-house.
Can you upgrade my old sauna to a smart or digital control?
Yes. Swapping a basic dial timer for a modern digital or smart control is one of the best quick upgrades — you get precise temperature, pre-heat timers so the sauna's hot when you walk in, safety cut-offs, and often app or wall-panel control of heat, lighting and aroma. We confirm your existing heater is compatible (or recommend a matched pair), then mount the control and wire it in-house. It's a fast job with a daily payoff.
