Sauna Heaters - How To Chose The Best One For You
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Benjamin_Wise]Benjamin Wise
Sauna heaters are the heart and soul of any sauna. They are the center piece that heats the air so that you can sweat out those horrid toxins and cleanse your skin. Lets go through some of your options when it comes to sauna heaters.
Electric heaters are enclosed in a protective casing so that bathers will not be burned if they accidentally touch them. The heaters are controlled with a thermostat that is mounted outside the sauna. You set the heater to the desired temperature and it stays on while the sauna is in use. It will take an electric heater approximately thirty minutes until the sauna is properly heated.
A wood-burning sauna heater is a combustion chamber with controlled air flow. The thing that determines how fast the wood will burn is the amount of air flow. If you control the air flow, this can control the temperature to a certain degree, but a wood-burning heater cannot be set to a certain temperature like an electric heater.
You do not have any danger of smoke entering the sauna - it is drawn out of the heater by means of the metal smoke pipe that has been installed through the sauna's roof.
If you have a wood-burning heater that has glass doors, you can watch the flames while you take a sauna. This can be a relaxing experience.
Oil and gas sauna heaters are also an option however they are not very common. These days with the various rising energy costs they are also becoming less popular
Some people even complain about the odor that comes with the burning fuel. If these kinds of heaters are vented properly, there should be no noticeable odor.
Stones.
