📐 Room Sizing Guide
Basic Formula:
1 kW = approximately 1-1.5 m³ sauna room volume
The Tylö Sense Combi Elite 6 (6.6kW) is designed for sauna rooms between 4 and 8 cubic metres.
Adjustment Factors:
| Condition | Adjustment |
|---|---|
| Glass door/windows | +1.5 m³ per m² of glass |
| Uninsulated/log walls | +25-50% to volume |
| Outdoor/barrel sauna | +25-30% to volume |
| High ceiling (above 2.3m) | Add extra volume |
| Brick/concrete walls (uninsulated) | +1.2-2 m³ per m² |
Worked Example:
📍 Example Room: 1.8m × 1.5m × 2.1m
- Base volume: 5.67 m³
- Glass door (0.7m × 1.9m = 1.33 m²): +2.0 m³
- Total calculated: 7.67 m³
- This 6.6 kW heater: ✅ Suitable (within 4-8 m³ range)
📍 Example Room 2: 2m × 2m × 2.2m
- Base volume: 8.8 m³
- No glass: 8.8 m³ total
- This 6.6 kW heater: ⚠️ At limit – consider 8kW model for optimal performance
💡 Tip: When in doubt, choose the next size up. An oversized heater reaches temperature faster and runs more efficiently at reduced output than an undersized unit working at maximum capacity.
💷 Running Costs
Energy Rate Used: £0.245/kWh (UK average Q4 2025 – Ofgem Price Cap)
The Tylö Sense Combi Elite 6.6kW features Split Output technology, which automatically reduces power consumption once the target temperature is reached. Actual energy consumption during a session is typically 60-70% of the rated power.
Estimated Annual Running Costs:
| Usage Level | Sessions/Week | Hours/Year | Annual Cost (Estimate) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🏠 Light Use | 2 | 150 | £170 – £240 |
| 🏠 Regular Use | 4 | 300 | £340 – £485 |
| 🧖 Heavy Use | 6 | 450 | £510 – £725 |
Cost Calculation Formula:
Annual Cost = kW × Hours/Year × £0.245 × Efficiency Factor
Example (Regular Use with Split Output):
6.6 kW × 300 hours × £0.245 × 0.75 = £363 per year
Per session cost (1.5 hour session):
6.6 kW × 1.5 hours × £0.245 × 0.75 = £1.82 per session
💡 Energy Saving Note: Tylö’s Split Output technology can reduce running costs by up to 30% compared to conventional sauna heaters that operate at full power throughout the session.
⚠️ Actual costs depend on usage patterns, session length, room insulation, and current energy rates. Steam function may increase consumption slightly.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size room will this heater work for? A: The Tylö Sense Combi Elite 6 (6.6kW) is designed for sauna rooms between 4 and 8 cubic metres.
