What kind of power does it need?

The Avila plugs into a standard 120V / 15A household outlet. It is plug and play, with no 240V line, no hardwiring, and no electrician required. The outlet is non-GFCI, and a dedicated outlet is recommended so the sauna is not sharing the circuit with other high-draw devices.

Do I need to build or wire anything?

No. The Avila arrives as a complete cabin, not a room kit. Two adults assemble it in under an hour, with most panels connecting by built-in buckle clasps. Once it is together, you plug it into a wall outlet and you are ready to go. There is no framing, no insulation, and no plumbing.

What is Low EMF, and how many heaters are there?

The Avila uses 7 FAR infrared carbon heating panels: 2 on the rear wall, 2 on each side wall, and 1 under the bench. They are Low EMF, which means electromagnetic field readings measure between 5 and 10 mG when taken 2 to 3 inches from the panels, lower than many standard infrared heaters.

How hot does it get?

The ideal range is 118°F to 132°F, and the sauna can reach up to 140°F. FAR infrared warms your body directly instead of heating the air, so it feels effective at a lower air temperature than a traditional steam or stove sauna.

How many people does it fit?

The Avila is a 1-2 person sauna. It is most comfortable for one person, and two can sit snugly. The exterior measures 39 in wide by 36 in deep by 73 in tall, so it fits easily into a spare corner, bedroom, or home gym.

Where can I put it?

Indoor use only. The Avila can sit on carpet or any indoor floor and works well in a basement, master bath, walk-in closet, bedroom, or fitness room. Leave a few inches of clearance around the cabin for airflow, and keep it within reach of a standard wall outlet.

What features are included?

The Avila includes an interior chromotherapy color lighting system with a red light feature, an interior LED control panel, a Bluetooth and MP3 aux sound system with built-in speakers, and a clear tempered glass door with a side window. The cabin is built from natural reforested Canadian Hemlock in a Honey Dark stain.

How is it delivered, and what is the warranty?

The Avila ships as a single pallet by freight carrier and is delivered curbside. It weighs around 250 lb assembled and ships at about 260 lb. It is backed by a 5-year warranty. Plan to have a second person on hand to help move the carton from the curb to the room where it will be set up.
