Multi-Panel Configurations
Tylö infrared panels can be combined to create comprehensive coverage. Here are recommended configurations based on sauna room width:
| Sauna Back Wall Width (mm) | 980×680 Panels | 980×360 Panels | Total Configuration |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1,160–1,245 | 1 | 1–2 | Compact setup |
| 1,330–1,500 | 0–2 | 2–3 | Standard coverage |
| 1,585–1,755 | 2 | 0–1 | Enhanced coverage |
| 1,840–2,010 | 2 | 1–2 | Large room setup |
| 2,095–2,350 | 3 | 0–1 | Commercial configuration |
| 2,435–2,690 | 3–2 | 0–2 | Maximum coverage |
System Load Limits:
- With Tylö Sense Elite: Maximum 2.2 kW infrared load (e.g., 6 × 300W panels = 1.8 kW, or 4 × 300W + 6 × 150W = 2.1 kW)
- With Commercial Lite Relay Box: Maximum 2.3 kW infrared load
💷 Running Costs
Energy Rate Used: £0.2635/kWh (Ofgem price cap, Q4 2025 – Direct Debit average)
Annual Cost Estimates (300W Panel)
| Usage Level | Sessions/Week | Hours/Year | Annual Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🏠 Light Use | 2 | 100 | £7.91 |
| 🏠 Regular Use | 4 | 200 | £15.81 |
| 🧖 Heavy Use | 6 | 300 | £23.72 |
Cost Calculation
Annual Cost = Power (kW) × Hours/Year × £0.2635
Example (300W panel, Regular Use - 4 sessions per week):
0.3 kW × 200 hours × £0.2635 = £15.81 per year
Per session cost: 0.3 kW × 1 hour × £0.2635 = £0.08 (approximately 8p per hour)
💡 Cost Efficiency: Infrared panels heat up instantly with no warm-up time required, unlike traditional sauna heaters. This means you only pay for actual usage time, making IR panels exceptionally economical to operate.
⚠️ Actual costs depend on usage patterns, session length, multi-panel configurations, and current energy rates.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I add this infrared panel to my existing traditional sauna? A: Yes, Tylö Infra Panels are designed to integrate with existing traditional sauna rooms. You’ll need a compatible control system such as the Tylö Elite Control Panel or IR Timer, and potentially a Commercial Lite Relay Box depending on your configuration.
Q: What electrical supply do I need? A: This panel requires a 230V supply. When combined with other panels or a sauna heater, a 10A fused circuit is typically required. Professional installation by a qualified electrician is mandatory.
Q: How many panels do I need for my sauna? A: This depends on your sauna size and desired coverage. A single 680 × 980mm panel provides excellent lower-body coverage. For comprehensive whole-body infrared therapy, multiple panels in various positions (back wall, side walls, under bench) may be recommended. Refer to the panel configuration guide above.
Q: What’s the difference between infrared and traditional sauna heating? A: Traditional sauna heaters warm the air and surfaces, creating high ambient temperatures (80–100°C). Infrared panels emit radiant heat that penetrates directly into skin, muscles, and tissues at much lower air temperatures (40–60°C), providing deep therapeutic warmth more efficiently.
Q: Are mounting brackets included? A: No, mounting accessories are sold separately. The Tylö Infra Skirting Mount Kit (Art. No. 2900 0266) or individual mounting brackets are required for installation.
Q: Can the panel be installed vertically? A: This panel is designed for horizontal installation beneath benches or along lower walls. Always follow Tylö installation guidelines for optimal performance and safety.
Q: What is the warranty? A: Contact Parts4Tubs for full warranty terms and conditions.
Q: How long does the panel take to heat up? A: Infrared panels heat up virtually instantly – there is no warm-up time required unlike traditional sauna heaters. You can begin your session immediately after switching on.
