Patented Air-Blending Climate Equalizer
The Saunum AIR 5 combines a 4,950-watt heater with an integrated climate equalizer. It blends hotter ceiling air with cooler lower air and returns the mixture to help reduce temperature stratification.
Designed for 106–212 Adjusted Cubic Feet
This Nordic Black closed-basket model serves 106–212 adjusted cubic feet. Glass, masonry, insulation, and ventilation affect sizing; calculate effective volume with the current manual.
Large Stone Mass and Adjustable Height
The closed basket holds 110 pounds of rounded 2–4″ stones. Its telescoping hot-air intake adjusts the assembled height from 73–95″ to meet the ceiling as directed.
Integrated Salt Tray and Three-Speed Fan
Seven Himalayan salt spheres sit in a removable airflow tray. The three-speed fan distributes blended air and steam under the manual’s operating and safety instructions.
