Scandia 245 Gas Sauna Heater - 40000 BTU

Considered the finest sauna heater in the world, the Ultra gas sauna heater is made from 100% stainless steel and features an extra large rock tray that instantly transforms the sauna into a steam sauna. More efficient than traditional electric heaters, the Ultra gas sauna heater does not require continuous replacement of costly elements.

Our sealed combustion heaters require no gas or flue connections inside the sauna. Therefore the possibility of oxygen depletion or flue products leading into the sauna are eliminated. A flue cap is furnished standard with all heaters we manufacture.



Ultra-Sauna gas heaters come complete with a galvanized back-panel assembly, stainless steel internal wall flashing and a flu-cap or draft hood (for direct or vertical venting). The ultra-sauna comes standard with a 60 minute timer and a mechanical thermostat. Optional items include a 24-hour timer and a battery powered peizo ignition system.

Gas or Electric?

If possible, a gas sauna heater is the ideal choice. Gas heaters generate a quality of heat that cannot be achieved by an electric heater. Gas offers a warm friendly heat that greatly enhances the sauna experience. In addition to quality, in most parts of the world, it cost lest to operate than electric heaters (up to 50% less). The LTV (life time value) of a gas sauna heater is sub-stantially greater than electric heaters from an operational and maintenance point of view.

Annual Energy Costs

Commercial sauna installations have considerably higher associated energy costs. According to the Tennessee Valley Authority, electricity costs approximately US$5,250 over a five-year period for a 7’x6’ sauna. The same size sauna using a gas heater will cost approximately US$3280. In addition to energy savings, gas heaters do not have elements like electric heaters that require frequent replacement.
