I am chemically sensitive, are some sauna woods better for me than others?
A: ABSOLUTELY. Some manufacturers will use veneer sheets in place of tongue and groove wood on many parts of the sauna such as the exterior, ceiling, back panel, and floor. As a sauna heats up to 140 degrees, these veneer sheets can off-gas and cause eye irritation as well as other reactions. This can also happen with the poorer quality lines of saunas. Before you purchase, ask for a current VOC test to ensure no toxic chemicals have been used in constructions. <View our Report> We only recommend a 100% tongue and groove sauna built with a hypoallergenic wood to those that are chemically sensitive. Speak to our specialists about what type of wood is the best for your particular situation.
