Titan Series Gas Heater

SaunaLife Titan SL1 Portable Gas Sauna Heater

The SaunaLife Titan SL1 Portable Gas Sauna Heater burns propane from a standard 20 lb tank, with up to 8.1 kW, or 27,600 BTU, of output. Above the burner, a basket holds 44 lbs of sauna stone. A low-pressure regulator and the 6 ft hose supplied with the heater connect the tank. The hose length leaves room to keep the tank clear of the heater. At 33 pounds without stones, it is a heater one person can pick up and carry. The same Titan can heat a ventilated sauna room or a SaunaTrekker tent, so it moves with you.

It covers a room volume of 140 to 350 cubic feet uninsulated and up to 425 cubic feet insulated. In a tent, the Titan is made for use in the SaunaTrekker and SaunaTrekker XL only. An oxygen sensor and a tip switch each cut the gas flow, and a timer shuts the heater off automatically. The Titan was developed in a collaboration between Finnish sauna artisans and the SaunaLife team.

Natural ventilation is part of every Titan SL1 installation, through a lower intake and an upper outlet. In a sauna room or cabin the exhaust discharges directly to the outdoors, and the heater is never used in a living area.

Inside The Titan SL1

How it works

A radiant heat chamber sits directly below the stone basket, with the burner base underneath both.

Output set at the dials
Two control dials sit on top of the burner base next to the data plate, and the output is set by hand at those dials. The burner runs on a high and a low setting, with 8.1 kW at the top of the range.
Up to 27,600 BTU
A basket for the stones
The basket carries 44 pounds of sauna stone directly above the radiant heat chamber. The stones hold that heat between water pours, and replacement stones are sold separately in two-box packs.
44 lbs / 20 kg
Safety devices on the gas
An integrated oxygen sensor cuts the gas flow when oxygen runs low, and a tip switch cuts it if the heater becomes unbalanced. A 60-minute timer turns the heater off automatically at the end of its run.
60-minute timer
A gas fitting with no wiring
Fuel is propane, taken from a standard tank. The heater is not hardwired and draws no electrical supply, so it needs no circuit of its own.

The Titan In Use

How to use it

Fuel

Fuel from a propane tank

The heater takes its fuel from a standard propane tank through the regulator and hose that ship in the box. Nothing about the arrangement is permanent, and the installation stays portable. The fuel line runs at least 12 inches from the heater.

  • Propane (LP) only, standard 20 lb tank
  • Low-pressure regulator and 6 ft hose included
  • Portable installation, nothing fixed in place
  • No wiring, breaker or sauna control to add

Heat

Heat that reaches the stones

Below the stone basket sits a radiant heat chamber, one of the three parts the heater is built from along with the basket itself and the base underneath. A full basket of stone sits directly over a burner whose output you set by hand, and stones that hold their temperature let you keep pouring water without the room going flat.

Portability

Moving the heater between saunas

At 33 pounds, 13.1 inches wide and 19.6 inches deep, the Titan is sized to be lifted and moved. SaunaLife builds two tents around it: the SaunaTrekker, a cube for up to four people, and the SaunaTrekker XL, a dome for up to six. Each tent packs down into a bag with its storm lines, so the heater and the room it heats travel the same way. Load the stones once the heater is in place, since a full basket adds weight.

Sizing

Matching the heater to your room

The Titan stands 27 inches tall on its base, occupies a 13.1 by 19.6 inch rectangle of floor, and is built from stainless steel with brass hardware. Measured from the stone basket, it needs 6 inches of clearance at the sides and rear, 16 inches in front and 50 inches to the ceiling.

  • 140 to 350 cu. ft. uninsulated, up to 425 cu. ft. insulated
  • Lower intake at least 54 sq in, upper outlet at least 39 sq in
  • Exhaust discharged directly outdoors in a sauna room

Titan SL1 Questions

Frequently asked questions

The heater with its stone basket, radiant heat chamber and base, a propane regulator and 6 ft hose, gloves, one heater guard and the installation and operation manual. The propane tank is not included, and replacement sauna stones are sold separately in two-box packs.
Propane (LP) only, from a standard tank through a low-pressure regulator. The regulator and a 6 ft hose come in the box, and the tank is bought separately. The heater is not hardwired and needs no circuit, breaker or sauna control unit.
Yes, natural ventilation is required: a lower intake of at least 54 sq in and an upper outlet of at least 39 sq in, with mechanical ventilation not recommended. Failure to provide and maintain adequate ventilation will result in unsafe operating conditions. Indoors, the heater goes only in a properly built, ventilated sauna room or cabin, never a living area, and its exhaust discharges directly to the outdoors, not into another room.
Under 30 minutes to sauna-ready temperature, for most saunas. Room volume, insulation and the outdoor temperature all change the time.
About 18 to 30 hours of sauna from a 20 lb propane tank, depending on heat level. The high setting empties a tank sooner than the low one.
140 to 350 cu. ft. for an uninsulated room, and up to 425 cu. ft. for an insulated one. Multiply width by depth by height in feet and compare the answer against those ranges.
An integrated oxygen sensor and a tip switch, each of which cuts the gas flow, and a 60-minute timer with automatic shutoff. One alder heater guard ships with the heater, and up to three can be mounted with the integrated clips, with extra guards sold on their own.
Only in a SaunaTrekker tent: the Titan is made for use in the SaunaTrekker and the SaunaTrekker XL, both of which carry integrated ventilation openings. In the tent it stands on a non-combustible surface such as a stone paver, never on grass, in the corner with the lower intake. SaunaLife sells the heater and the two tents as one portable set.
Two. The Titan SL1 Water Tank sits on the heater for more humidity, releases steam through openings in its top surface and holds hot water behind an integrated spigot, which suits off-grid and remote installations. The Titan SL1 Heat Shield is a stainless panel on clips that brings the side and rear clearance down from 6 inches to 4 inches, with the shield at least 1 inch from the wall.
SaunaLife backs the Titan SL1 for the original retail purchaser, and Recovery For Athletes is an authorized SaunaLife reseller.
