Shipping & Delivery Information

Free Curbside Delivery

 Curbside Delivery ships via Freight to the 48 contiguous states. The freight carrier will contact you 24 to 48 hours prior to delivery to set a delivery day and time Monday-Friday, with a 4-hour open window.

      They won’t deliver without speaking to you first. **Shipping times are only approximate, and can change depending on environmental conditions, transit issues, and carrier’s availability. Last minute appointments can occur, and it’s out of our hands since the delivery process is managed by the carrier’s. The sauna will be delivered in 1 box or more, depending on the model. All boxes will be strapped to a pallet. All saunas are delivered in a 53-foot semi-truck with a single driver, who will unload the pallet to your curbside or driveway only. Any delivery questions or issues (remote areas, long driveways, large and low hanging trees, apartment complex, stairs, etc.) should be addressed with us prior to shipping your sauna.

        Once the driver has unloaded the sauna, we ask that you immediately inspect the boxes for any damage. Please indicate any minor scratches, indentations, or scuff marks to the outside of the boxes on the delivery receipt. You do not need to open the boxes to inspect the sauna. The freight company will deliver your sauna to a carport or first-floor entryway. Please check the box dimensions and ensure it will fit through your doorway. Assembly on these saunas are surprisingly easy and can take between 30-45 minutes, depending on the sauna. Assembly instructions are included with the saunas.

Hybrid infrared and red light sauna

The Hot Box Sauna

The Hot Box Sauna is a hybrid sauna that reaches 220°F on a standard 120V household outlet. Hybrid means traditional sauna heat, infrared and red light, all from one heater assembly. Because it plugs into the wall, there is no 220V line to run, no foundation to pour and no structure permit to file before your first session. The Western Red Cedar cabin goes together in about 10 minutes. The heater, the infrared and red light bulbs and a WiFi adaptor all come in the box.

Those three are the part most sauna buyers do not budget for, and the Hot Box leaves them out of the project. Inside, it seats one person up to 6'3".

Version 7

How it works

The Hot Box is on its seventh version, arrived at after more than 300 saunas delivered. Most of what changed in V7 is about holding heat, because the sauna has to stay on a household circuit.

Runs on a household circuit
The whole design works backwards from one constraint: the sauna has to run on a circuit that already exists in your house. It draws 1200 watts at maximum at 120V. A 10-foot, 12-gauge American-made power cord ships with it and delivers full power to the heater with no extension cord in the way.
Standard Household Outlet
Heater 4.0 with internal Faraday cage
The fourth-generation heater has a more open housing to maximize both heat and infrared delivery into the cabin, while the internal Faraday cage handles safety and protection. It runs traditional heat, infrared and red light from one unit.
Infrared & Red Light
Roof panel heat reflection
Stainless steel heat reflectors and wool insulation in the upgraded roof panel push heat back down toward you and raise the cabin's R-value. Together with the new heater, that panel brought V7 a 30% faster preheat and a higher maximum temperature on the same wattage as before.
30% Faster Preheat
Aluminum V-track and lid gasket
The lid runs on an aluminum V-track and trolley, so it opens butter-smooth every time. A high-temperature gasket seals it when closed, holding a consistent cabin temperature once the sauna is up to heat.

How to use it

Size

A seated cabin for one

The Hot Box is a seated cabin for one person up to 6'3", 53 inches long and 30.5 inches wide on the outside. It goes indoors or outdoors under cover, and the whole cabin weighs 320 lbs. Inside you get 50 by 27.5 inches of floor and 40 inches of height, with the lid sliding open when you want air. It still reaches 220°F on a 120V plug and goes together in about ten minutes.

  • Exterior 53 x 30.5 x 43 in.
  • Interior 50 x 27.5 x 40 in.
  • 320 lbs
  • One person up to 6'3", 1200W max
1 Person Same 120V Plug

Setting the heat

To ease into heat, work up one bulb at a time on the Heater 4.0, the fourth generation of the component. If it gets too intense, slide the lid partly open to let heat out, or all the way for a fresh reset. The heater is wired to meet standard household safety ratings and is tested extensively before it ships.

  • Heater assembly and bulbs included
  • Internal Faraday cage
  • Infrared and red light from one unit
  • Lid slides open to release heat

Flat-Pack

Flat-packed and easy to move

The cabin never has to go through a doorway in one piece. It breaks down into flat panels in 10 to 15 minutes and rebuilds on a custom rail system in about ten, and no single panel weighs more than 60 lbs. That covers getting the sauna into a basement or up a stairwell, and taking it with you when you move.

  • Breaks down in 10 to 15 minutes
  • Reassembles on the custom rail system
  • No foundation and no permanent installation
  • No panel over 60 lbs

Questions

Frequently asked questions

It seats one person up to 6'3". The interior is 50 inches long, 27.5 inches wide and 40 inches high, and the cabin takes up 53 by 30.5 inches of floor.
It plugs into a standard 120V outlet and draws a maximum of 1200 watts, on a dedicated 15 amp circuit. Plug the 10-foot, 12-gauge cord that ships with it straight into the wall outlet, with no extension cord or power strip in between.
It reaches 220°F, which is traditional sauna temperature on standard household power. Expect about 60 to 90 minutes to reach 180 to 200°F and 90 to 120 minutes to reach 220°F, depending on the temperature of the room. V7 preheats 30% faster than the previous version on the same wattage.
Exterior 53 in. long x 30.5 in. wide x 43 in. high, interior 50 x 27.5 x 40 in., weight 320 lbs. Plan the room around the exterior figure.
No. The sauna plugs into an existing outlet, sits on the floor, and is not a permanent structure. The one electrical need is a dedicated 15 amp circuit.
About 10 minutes to assemble on its custom rail system, and 10 to 15 minutes to break it back down. The panels go in one at a time and none weighs more than 60 lbs, so the sauna reaches its room as panels rather than as a finished cabin. The same works in reverse when you move house.
Yes. We know putting a sauna together can feel like a daunting task, so we offer professional assembly by a crew that assembles saunas all the time. After you order, fill out the form at pureinstall.com/recovery-for-athletes-sauna-setup and they'll take it from there. Assembly runs $800 to $3,000 depending on the size and complexity of the model, paid directly to the installer. Electrical isn't included, so you'll want an electrician lined up or the right power already in place.
Every sauna comes with the heater assembly, the infrared and red light bulbs and a WiFi adaptor, plus the 10-foot 12-gauge power cord. There is no separate heater to choose or buy. A back rest, sauna cover, hemp cushion, thermometer, replacement bulbs and an outdoor shower are sold separately.
Yes. The sauna can be placed inside or outside, as long as the space is covered. For outdoor use, the Hot Box Sauna Cover adds UV and mildew protection and helps cut preheat time.
Delivery is free curbside by freight to the 48 contiguous states. The carrier calls 24 to 48 hours ahead to set a Monday to Friday delivery in a 4-hour window. Each sauna is built in small batches in Reno, Nevada, with a lead time of about 3 to 4 months that runs longer heading into winter.
All components of the sauna are covered for 12 months, with the exception of the light bulbs. If a bulb arrives damaged, contact our support team right away for assistance.
