What would be the best matt to put under and around the saunabox? I am putting it on my screened in back porch that has a concrete floor. I will also have my portable ice plunge there down from it

Just bought one, Thank you for the discount. I plan on leaving it in the garage so hopefully the fiberglass frame doesn't get brittle over time from the cold

@Recovatech 5 месяцев назад

I appreciate that! I'm definitely looking forward to warmer temps outside. That said, I hopped in today and it was about 60 degrees out and the tent got HOT! I'm really curious to see how it will be in the summer. I'm guessing I won't be in there for more than 10 minutes.

@Ball_drips 5 месяцев назад

Windows made from fiberglass is an upgrade from vinyl due to its durability in temp changes. If the poles are indeed fiberglass they should do fine

@leonardofranco8143 8 дней назад

@recovatech thanks for the good info. I purchased a sauna box 2 weeks ago. No more than 110 degrees despite the fact it’s summer Ami have the unite inside de garage. Any thoughts on adding an extra steam unit (Amazon sells similar for $60) anyone who you know has tried that? Or any thoughts on throwing covers ore dimito retain heat?

@jossse217 4 месяца назад

At first I didn’t like it wasn’t too hot but after my gym sanua went out for a month I got adjusted to the sanua box and I really like it now definitely stand inside the box don’t sit down you’ll feel it more if you stand I shadow box in there with light dumbbells I come out sweating sweating

@mattk3445 5 месяцев назад

I should be receiving my saunabox and cold plunge combo today! Super stoked. I was going to set it up in the garage so hopefully it doesn't cause an issue with too much moisure in the house but I was going to just open the garage and setup a fan to help vent/dry it out. One thing I would recommend is using distilled water only to prevent calcification and all that crap gumming up the machine. Idk if you mentioned that or not. Solid review ty.

@Recovatech 5 месяцев назад

The SaunaBox contains the steam really well, so the only time it will air out is when you open the door. Honestly, I don't think it will have any more impact than if you took an extended hot shower in your bathroom. Yeah I agree, air it out with a small fan and you should be good. Great point about using distilled. Not a bad idea all around. Thanks for commenting!

@mattk3445 5 месяцев назад

I also had an F fitting crack along with 2 adjoining fittings. I reached out to customer service and they sent a new one over right away.

That's actually really great to hear! I spoke with them in the past and beefing up the fittings was one of the priorities for future models.

@mattk3445 5 месяцев назад

This happened to me yesterday but it was an E fitting. Haven't contacted them yet as once I fully connected all the pieces, it seems to be holding ok for now.

@rubengonzalez5573 3 месяца назад

So.. I feel like I have to turn on off every time I want to use the sauna. Reason being is the water doesn’t travel to water collecter. Have you have you had this issue?

@Recovatech 3 месяца назад

You're saying the steam doesn't travel through the tube to the collector? I'm not sure what's happening there, but no, I haven't had a single issue.

@chasealexandersilverstein1943 11 дней назад

What mat would you recommend for the floor. I just did my first sauna and noticed a good amount of sweat outside the box on the floor. Not going to lie I was a bit disappointed but overall super impressed with the capabilities and features of the new improvements.

@Recovatech 11 дней назад

And you have the sweatmat on the floor inside while using it? Also, are you feeding the steam through the hose and into the included steam diffusor/cup? Not exactly sure what they call it, but that should collect any of the extra water. If I have those two things in place, the bottom is never wet afterwards. That aside, any rubber mat would work. You could pick up a gym floor tile or horse stall mat. Either would work.

@runawaytechgal1467 7 дней назад

I bought based upon your video!! I need to test out whether i will use it enough to invest in a permanent one

@Recovatech 7 дней назад

Comments like this can sometimes be a double-edged sword. 50% you'll love it or 50% you'll hate it and hate me for recommending it, lol! Not sure either way, but I still love using it.

@FitnessWithDarius 3 месяца назад

How do you think this would do in a finished basement? Is it best to have this outside?

@Recovatech 3 месяца назад

Totally doable. The sweat mat does a great job collecting most of the water/sweat, but I would still place it on something that could stand up to some moisture (no carpet). As far as the steam, it's really well self-contained in the tent and when you do open it, it's a quick burst of steam and then it dissipates right away. No more than a shower if that helps. When you're done, open it up all the way and use a fan to dry it out for an hour or so. Very low maintenance overall.

@billdurr6829 3 месяца назад

So if i keep in garage which can get into low 90’s in Florida , it should not be affected by “ cooler” air

@Recovatech 2 месяца назад

Not a chance. I've noticed as it's getting warmer outside that I'm actually scaling back the amount of time I spend in it. I've always kept it on the highest setting and could go 20+ minutes. Now I get to about 15 and I'm done. Just feels so much hotter inside.

@oskeezy2238 Месяц назад

Any word on if they will add infrared in the future? Leaning towards nurecover for that reason

@Recovatech Месяц назад

Still no word. That said, I'd be really curious to test that red light strip to see if it, in fact, does transmit 660nm wavelengths. To be clear I don't have anything against, Nurecover. Just curious to know. BTW, I noticed they now have a PRO sauna with extra insulation. That might be worth trying. If you go that route, this will get you 20% off anything: www.nurecover.com/discount/RT20

@comatt1863 4 месяца назад

If it’s freezing temps outside and some wetness on the sauna when it is left outside in freezing temperatures, will the ice damage it?

@Recovatech 4 месяца назад

For long-term longevity, I'd minimize the amount of direct exposure to the elements, especially if it's getting covered in ice.

@PMart317 5 месяцев назад

Is this safe indoor/basement? Guessing it needs to be by a window or a fan to flow the steam out?

@Recovatech 5 месяцев назад

Sure you can. The steam is pretty much contained while the door is closed, but once you're done, be sure to air it out really well. You could simply use a fan to dry it out. I know a lot of people are concerned about the steam causing damage, but it's not much different than taking a hot shower with the door closed.

@Recovatech 4 месяца назад

Yes, I have an outlet outside.

@LawSupreme7 5 месяцев назад

Can it be used inside our bathroom? We have a ton of space

@Recovatech 5 месяцев назад

Absolutely! You can use it anywhere indoors. I would just make sure you have good ventilation to air it out afterward. That could simply mean to run a fan to get rid of the condensation inside the tent. You just don't want it sitting there and not drying out.

@suavelifestyle9094 10 дней назад

Can you use it outdoors?

@inacioneto554 Месяц назад

What water should use for the sauna ?

@Recovatech Месяц назад

If you don't have distilled, then purified water for sure. You're breathing in that water vapor so you want to make sure it's as pure as possible.

@just_jun2 Месяц назад

Do you leave yours outside? Or if anyone else leaves it outside, I'd like to hear how everyone protects it from the elements?

@Recovatech Месяц назад

I do. I have it under a Gazebo so usually the sides do get wet when it rains. despite that, it still looks great!

@jarodallen7910 16 дней назад

What are your thoughts on the 1love dome saunas?

@Recovatech 16 дней назад

Never tried it. I did have a sauna blanket from HigherDose and I think they'd be similar. I thought it worked well. I kind of didn't like just lying on the floor for 45 minutes, sweating in a bag. In the end, not my thing. At least in the SaunaBox I can sit/stand and move around a little.

@drakefarr 3 месяца назад

Do you think 2-3 people could stand inside without the chair?

@Recovatech 3 месяца назад

2 for sure. 3 it would be tight!

@Elados16 3 месяца назад

Is it ok to use it indoors ?

@Recovatech 3 месяца назад

Absolutely, as long as you use caution. The sweat mat does a great job at absorbing water, but I'd put a waterproof mat underneath the entire thing. Also, just like outdoors, you want to make sure you air it out really well afterward. Otherwise, the steam is well contained and once you do open it, I don't think it's more than what a hot shower would put off.

@mlbjr Месяц назад

A thermal blanket on the top and insulated steam lines will improve the temp

Great ideas! Stay tuned. New video of an updated SaunaBox with better insulation is about to drop!

@slibhart1 3 месяца назад

How long does the water last in the steam unit?

@Recovatech 3 месяца назад

Great question! Including warm up time, after about 35 minutes of use it's still about 1/2 full.

@s3s_ 4 месяца назад

After using the heat sauna does taking a shower ruin the point of it?

@Recovatech 4 месяца назад

I don't think so. Contrast therapy is pretty popular, where people will get in a suana and immediately jump in cold water afterwards. You'll be sweating so much, a shower is a must, IMO.

@robwrone 3 месяца назад

Still holding up okay after another 2 months?

I watched a ton of reviews and I was gonna do the Nurecover truthfully but the sauna box has rails on the side not just up and down. It has a mat on the bottom to protect from ripping etc. I was gonna do nure but after everything I’ve watched and read the sauna box is what I’m going with. I wanted the nurecover cause it has a read light therapy one and it said it’s wider but again it doesn’t look like it really is
