What do you know about the sauna? What are its types? In the Finnish sauna, it is not uncommon for the temperature to reach 100 degrees Celsius, while the humidity is very low (at 10 percent). However, the best known type is the wet sauna, the Roman sauna, which has a humidity up to 100 percent. The effect of this variety of sauna is to increase air humidity by pouring water over heated stones. The temperature in the wet sauna should be about 45-60 degrees Celsius. A completely new modern type is the infrared sauna. Based on mounted light emitting points, it is distinguished by both low humidity - 25 percent, and low temperature - 60 degrees Celsius.
Regardless of which type of sauna we choose, using the wide market offer, it is important how and where we place it. The modern, appropriately large shower enclosure, made of the highest quality materials, meets all criteria - it is moisture resistant, tight and does not heat up too quickly. SanSwiss has been creating shower enclosures and shower trays for over 35 years, which are renowned for their quality, careful workmanship and timeless design.
