CUSTOM SAUNA MATERIALS LIGHTING
Lighting in a sauna must tolerate temperatures up to 250'F and be rated by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) for "Wet Location". This means it can be used outdoors as well as in showers. Pictures below are from a custom Precut installation where the lighting used was low-voltage around the ceiling perimeter. Strips were installed on top of the paneling and furring strips (walls were furred out with 1x4's) and then covered with site-made skirt boards and crown molding. Each bulb is 5 watts and automotive grade. Lightstrips are made by Alexandra Lighting of Colorado Springs for Springs Sauna Company. Part number for lighting is SS246-series. To use this lighting, furring the walls before paneling required as is access to the space above the sauna. To run lighting over the door as shown a ceiling height of 7'-6" is required.
It is not recommended to use this lighting in a commercial sauna
that is on for most of the day.
