📐 Room Sizing Guide
Basic Formula
The Tylö Crown Elite 6 (6.6 kW) is designed for sauna rooms between 4 and 8 cubic metres.
General guideline: 1 kW = 1 to 1.5 m³ of well-insulated sauna room volume.
Adjustment Factors
| Condition | Adjustment |
|---|---|
| Glass door or window | Add +1.5 m³ per m² of glass area |
| Uninsulated or log walls | Add +25-50% to calculated volume |
| Outdoor or barrel sauna | Add +25-30% to calculated volume |
| High ceiling (above 2.3m) | Calculate additional volume accordingly |
📍 Worked Example
Example Room: 2.0m (L) × 1.6m (W) × 2.1m (H)
- Base volume: 2.0 × 1.6 × 2.1 = 6.72 m³
- Glass door (0.8m × 2.0m = 1.6 m²): +2.4 m³
- Total calculated volume: 9.12 m³
💡 Recommendation: For this room, consider the Crown Elite 8 (8 kW, 6-12 m³). The Crown Elite 6 is ideal for smaller rooms without large glass areas.
This 6.6 kW heater is best suited for:
- Well-insulated rooms: 4-8 m³
- Small home saunas: approximately 2-4 people capacity
- Rooms with minimal glass surfaces
💷 Running Costs
Energy Rate Used: £0.2769/kWh (Ofgem Price Cap Q1 2026 – Direct Debit average)
Annual Cost Estimates
| Usage Level | Sessions/Week | Hours/Year | Annual Cost (approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🏠 Light Use | 2 | 150 | £274 |
| 🏠 Regular Use | 4 | 300 | £548 |
| 🧖 Heavy Use | 6 | 450 | £822 |
Calculation Formula
Annual Cost = kW × Hours per Year × £0.2769
Example (Regular Use - 4 sessions per week):
6.6 kW × 300 hours × £0.2769 = £548.15 per year
Per Session Cost (1.5 hour session):
6.6 kW × 1.5 hours × £0.2769 = £2.74 per session
⚠️ Actual costs depend on usage patterns, session length, room insulation, and your specific energy tariff. Rates may vary by region and supplier.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size room will this heater work for? A: The Crown Elite 6 (6.6 kW) is suitable for well-insulated sauna rooms between 4 and 8 m³. For rooms with glass doors, uninsulated walls, or outdoor installations, add 25-50% to your base volume calculation and consider the larger Crown Elite 8 if your adjusted volume exceeds 8 m³.
Q: How long does it take to heat up? A: With the IntelliAir technology, the Crown Elite 6 typically reaches approximately 80°C within 30 minutes in a well-insulated room at the lower end of its capacity range. Larger rooms or those with heat loss factors may require 45-60 minutes.
Q: What electrical supply do I need? A: For UK installations, you can use either 400-415V three-phase (10A, 16A breaker) or 230-240V single-phase (29A, 32A breaker). Three-phase is recommended where available as it requires smaller cable sizes. A dedicated circuit installed by a qualified electrician is essential.
Q: Are sauna stones included? A: No, sauna stones are sold separately. The Crown Elite 6 has a 20 kg stone capacity. We recommend high-quality vulcanite or olivine diabase stones for optimal performance.
Q: Can I control this heater from my smartphone? A: Yes! The included Elite Cloud control panel has built-in WiFi. Download the free Tylö Control app to preheat your sauna remotely, adjust settings, and monitor operation from anywhere. Note: The included door contact must be installed to enable remote start functionality.
Q: What is the warranty? A: Tylö products are covered by manufacturer warranty. Contact Parts4Tubs for full warranty terms and conditions applicable in the UK.
Q: Can I install this outdoors? A: The Crown Elite 6 is designed for indoor sauna use. For outdoor saunas (garden rooms, barrel saunas), ensure the sauna structure itself is properly weatherproofed and the heater is protected from direct exposure to the elements. The IPX4 rating protects against water splashes but not sustained outdoor exposure.
Q: Is professional installation required? A: Yes, electrical installation must be carried out by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and warranty validity. The installation must comply with BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations) and local building codes.
