📐 Room Sizing Guide
Basic Calculation: 1 kW = approximately 1-1.5 m³ of sauna room volume
The 8 kW Sense Pure heater is designed for sauna rooms between 6-12 m³.
Adjustment Factors:
| Condition | Adjustment Required |
|---|---|
| Glass door or windows | Add +1.5 m³ per m² of glass surface |
| Uninsulated or log walls | Add +25-50% to calculated volume |
| Outdoor or barrel sauna | Add +25-30% to calculated volume |
| Masonry walls without insulation | Add +1.2-2 m³ per m² of masonry surface |
| High ceiling (above 2.3m) | Calculate additional volume and add |
Worked Example:
📍 Example Room: 2.5m × 2m × 2.2m
- Base volume: 11 m³
- Glass door (0.8m × 2m = 1.6 m²): +2.4 m³
- Effective volume: 13.4 m³
For this room with a glass door, the 8 kW Sense Pure would be at the upper limit of its capacity. Consider adding extra insulation or choosing a larger heater if additional glass surfaces are present.
💷 Running Costs
Energy Rate Used: £0.2635/kWh (UK Ofgem Price Cap, Q4 2025)
Annual Cost Estimates:
| Usage Level | Sessions/Week | Hours/Year | Annual Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🏠 Light Use | 2 | 150 | £317 |
| 🏠 Regular Use | 4 | 300 | £633 |
| 🧖 Heavy Use | 6 | 450 | £949 |
Calculation Formula: Annual Cost = Power (kW) × Hours/Year × £0.2635/kWh
Example (Regular Use – 4 sessions per week): 8 kW × 300 hours × £0.2635 = £632.40 per year
Per Session Cost: Approximately £2.11 per 1-hour session (at full power)
💡 Energy Saving Tip: The Split Output technology can reduce these costs by up to 30% during normal operation, potentially saving over £190 annually with regular use.
⚠️ Actual costs depend on usage patterns, session length, room insulation, and current energy tariffs. The heater does not operate at full power throughout the entire session.
🔌 Installation Requirements
