Warranty: every infrared cabin
The warranty term on every infrared cabin, and who stands behind it.
Warranty terms run 1 to 7 years across the 106 infrared cabins, with 2 covered for life. 101 carry no clean term, so the manufacturer's own wording is shown instead of a number.
How these are worked out
The term comes from the record. What a term actually covers is a brand promise rather than a product one, and it is rarely one number: a cabinet, a heater, controls and glass are usually covered for different lengths of time. Each brand page carries that full table with the date it was captured, so the brand here is a link to it rather than a summary of it.
Assumptions: electricity at $0.17 per kWh (US average), cost per session over 3 years at about 1 session per week (price divided by 156), sauna running cost at a 30-minute session. These are estimates for comparison, not quotes.

| Ownership | What it means |
|---|---|
| Upkeep | There is no water and no stone bed, so upkeep is the cabin and the emitters. Benches and backrests are wiped down after a session, and the emitter faces are kept clear of dust. Inside, nothing is sealed: sealant and wood protectant are not used anywhere in a sauna, and tired wood is sanded back instead. |
| What you rebuy | Nothing |
| Service life | Carbon fibre and full-spectrum emitters are rated 30,000 to 50,000 hours, which Sun Home puts at 15 to 25 or more years on three 45-minute sessions a week. Ceramic elements are rated far shorter, 5,000 to 10,000 hours, so the emitter type is what sets the replacement clock. |
| Where they fail | Heat output falling below 85% of baseline, the point at which Sun Home puts an emitter due for replacement; Visible cracking of an emitter face; An unexplained rise in energy draw with no change in use |
These apply to the class, not to this record alone, and they are sourced from the manufacturer guidance for it. Anything a source does not state is left out rather than estimated.
