Overview
The Maxxus MX-K306-01 CED 3-Person Low EMF Cedar FAR Infrared Sauna combines natural Canadian Red Cedar construction, seven far-infrared carbon heating panels and a straight-cabin layout suited to a dedicated indoor home wellness room. It offers room for up to three users without requiring a traditional sauna stove, steam generator or a large corner configuration.
Seven Low EMF FAR infrared carbon panels provide warmth from the rear and side walls, the space beneath the bench and the floorboard. Golden Designs reports EMF readings of 5–10 milligauss when measured approximately 2–3 inches from the panels. This is the Low EMF MX-K306-01 CED, not the separate Near Zero EMF MX-K306-01-ZF CED; it should not be marketed as an EMF-free or full-spectrum sauna.
The cabin features a bronze-tinted tempered-glass door, oversized chromotherapy color lighting, a separate red-light setting, exterior accent lighting and integrated audio with FM radio, Bluetooth, MP3 auxiliary input and speakers. The current Golden Designs listing specifies interior touchscreen controls; production-year variations mean the supplied panel should be confirmed against the included manual.
At 64 inches wide, 44 inches deep and 75 inches high, the cabin offers a wider interior than many compact two-person saunas. Its roof extends approximately 5.9 inches beyond the stated depth, making precise room measurement important before purchase. The unit requires a dedicated 120V/20A electrical circuit and is intended for indoor residential installation only.
Features
Features
-
Three-Person Straight-Cabin Layout: Designed for up to three people in an indoor rectangular footprint, rather than the corner layout of the separate MX-K356-01 CED.
-
Seven Far-Infrared Carbon Heaters: Seven Maxxus Low EMF FAR infrared panels warm the seating area from the walls, under-bench area and floor. This model does not include dedicated near-infrared heating elements.
-
Heater Placement: Dealer specifications identify three rear-wall heaters, one on each side wall, one beneath the bench and one in the floorboard.
-
Manufacturer-Reported Low EMF: Golden Designs reports approximately 5–10 milligauss measured 2–3 inches from the FAR heater panels. The rating is not a guarantee of zero EMF throughout the sauna.
-
Canadian Red Cedar: Natural reforested Canadian Red Cedar gives the sauna a warm wood appearance and characteristic cedar aroma. Users with cedar sensitivity should review the manufacturer's cautions.
-
Bronze-Tinted Tempered-Glass Door: The manufacturer's bronze-tinted glass entrance complements the cedar cabin.
-
Interior Lighting: Oversized chromotherapy color lighting adjusts the cabin atmosphere.
-
Separate Red-Light Feature: An included red-light lighting setting is distinct from the FAR infrared heating panels and is not a claim of medical treatment.
-
Exterior Accent Lighting: Decorative exterior lighting complements the sauna cabinet.
-
Interior Touchscreen Controls: The current manufacturer page advertises an interior touchscreen. Older stock may use LED controls; match the operating manual to the supplied panel.
-
FM Radio and Bluetooth: Listen to radio or compatible Bluetooth devices through the built-in speakers.
-
MP3 Auxiliary Input: Supports compatible wired audio sources in addition to wireless playback.
-
Dedicated 120V/20A Supply: Requires a special 120-volt, 20-amp electrical circuit and appropriate receptacle instead of an ordinary 15-amp shared household outlet.
-
Indoor Residential Construction: A prefabricated clasp-together cabin designed for a dry, appropriately prepared interior space.
-
Roof Overhang Consideration: The manufacturer specifies 5.9 inches of additional depth for roof overhang beyond the 44-inch cabinet depth.
-
Adjustable Ventilation: Ventilation features should be operated as described in the manual corresponding to the supplied production version.

Installation
Installation
-
Confirm the Actual Footprint: The sauna cabinet measures 64 inches wide by 44 inches deep by 75 inches high. The roof overhang adds approximately 5.9 inches to the depth. Leave additional room for the door swing, wall clearances, ventilation, power connection, assembly and future service. Do not treat the roof-overhang measurement as a substitute for the manufacturer's full clearance diagram.
-
Choose a Suitable Indoor Surface: Select a dry, level residential location capable of supporting the manufacturer's approximately 310-pound cabin weight plus occupants. Avoid areas subject to rainfall, standing water or persistent condensation.
-
Prepare the Correct Electrical Circuit: Golden Designs specifies 120V/20A dedicated electrical service with an appropriate matching receptacle and breaker. Its public product listing calls for a non-GFCI arrangement; a qualified electrician must reconcile the exact unit's instructions with applicable local electrical codes and any required protective devices.
-
Do Not Substitute a Standard Shared Outlet: Do not connect the sauna to an ordinary shared 15-amp circuit, extension cord, power strip or outlet adapter. Confirm the supplied plug and circuit requirements before taking delivery or scheduling assembly.
-
Inspect the Delivery: Golden Designs lists three cartons and approximately 450 pounds total shipping weight. Inspect packaging and components and document any transit damage before assembly. Freight method and delivery services depend on the confirmed order terms.
-
Assemble the Prefabricated Panels: Follow the current model-specific manual to install floor, walls, bench, roof, door, controls and other components. The manufacturer's clasp-together construction is intended for on-site assembly; use sufficient assistance when handling large panels and glass.
-
Check Production-Year Controls: Golden Designs provides separate manuals for older LED-control models and newer touchscreen models. Follow the manual corresponding to the actual control panel supplied instead of mixing instructions from different production versions.
-
Verify First-Use Safety: Check heater-panel connections, electrical cord, lighting, controls, glass door and ventilation before operation. Never place water on the infrared heaters or attempt to create steam inside this dry sauna.
Operation and Usage
Operation And Usage
The Maxxus MX-K306-01 CED uses seven far-infrared carbon panels and an integrated control system. Operating functions may vary slightly between the original LED-control version and the current touchscreen-control version, so follow the documentation supplied with your sauna.
-
Starting and Preheating: Use the interior controls to select a comfortable temperature and operating time, allowing the room to warm as desired. Follow the applicable control-panel manual.
-
Temperature Guidance: Golden Designs lists 118°F–132°F as the ideal operating range and advertises temperatures up to 140°F. Achievable temperatures and warm-up times depend on ambient conditions and use.
-
Seven FAR Carbon Panels: The heater arrangement consists of three rear-wall panels, one on each side wall, one beneath the bench and one in the floorboard. There are no separate near-infrared heating elements in this model.
-
What Low EMF Means: The manufacturer's claimed 5–10 mG measurement is taken approximately 2–3 inches from the carbon panels. It does not mean EMF-free or Near Zero EMF, nor does it describe every point inside the cabin.
-
Chromotherapy and Red Light: Adjust interior color lighting or the red-light setting according to the fitted controls. These are lighting amenities, not guarantees of medical benefits.
-
FM and Bluetooth Audio: Tune FM radio, pair a compatible Bluetooth device or use the supported MP3 auxiliary input through the built-in speakers.
-
Ventilation: Use the installed vent and keep airflow openings unobstructed according to the manufacturer manual.
-
Start Conservatively: Begin with shorter sessions and moderate heat; leave immediately if you experience lightheadedness, unusual weakness, nausea, breathing difficulty or discomfort.
-
Hydration and Heat Safety: Drink adequate fluids before and after sauna sessions. Avoid using the sauna while intoxicated or when unable to safely tolerate heat.
-
Protect the Cedar Bench: Use a clean towel on the seat to help absorb perspiration, while keeping towels and other objects off infrared heating panels.
-
Cleaning and Care: Turn off and cool the sauna before cleaning, then use manufacturer-approved methods for cedar and glass. Avoid harsh chemical sprays, saturating the wood and wetting electrical components.
-
Routine Inspection: Check the glass door, heaters, power cord, fasteners and control system for damage or electrical faults. Stop use and contact authorized service if defects appear.
-
Cedar Sensitivity: Canadian Red Cedar can cause irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Discontinue use if you notice skin, eye or respiratory symptoms.
Important safety information: Sauna heat exposure can cause dehydration, overheating or faintness. Avoid alcohol before or during use, supervise children and discontinue a session if you feel unwell. Anyone who is pregnant, has cardiovascular conditions or uses medication affecting heat tolerance should consult a healthcare professional before use. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat or prevent disease.
