Get Unparalleled Flexibility With a 5-Person Hybrid Sauna
Can’t choose between a 5-person infrared sauna or a 5-person traditional sauna? You don’t have to! A 5-person hybrid sauna brings you the best of both worlds with dual-heating technology.

Frequently asked questions
What is a hybrid sauna?
It’s two heating systems in one unit. A marriage between an infrared sauna or traditional sauna, because let’s face it, choosing sucks! Both of these technologies have their place. Traditional saunas run hotter and bring you a more enveloping, authentic sauna session. Infrared saunas operate at lower temperatures as they penetrate your tissue to warm you directly.
Can I use the infrared and electric heating elements simultaneously?
Yes, the panels in the Golden Designs Gargellen run independently from the electric heater so you can choose one heating method, the other, or both. It’s easy to tailor the experience with the touchscreen control panel inside the cabin.
How much room do I need to fit a hybrid sauna for five people?
The 5-person hybrid sauna we carry measures 78” wide by just under 57” deep (without overhang). With the overhang, it expands to 99” by 73”. You need a flat, level surface to install the sauna on, and you need to make sure you have ample clearance for ventilation and the door to open as well. Ask our team for help if you’re not sure you have enough space.
Can a 5-person hybrid sauna go indoors or outdoors?
This sauna is meant to go outdoors with its treated hemlock exterior. You never have to worry about the elements taking a toll as long as you re-seal it as needed. It requires a 240V/40A circuit. It can technically be installed as a 5-person indoor sauna if you have space for it, though!
How comfortably will five adults fit in these hybrid saunas?
Five adults fit pretty comfortably on the bench layout without it feeling cramped. The total interior space is 74.2” wide by 53.2” deep. You get around 78” of headroom.
Do five-person hybrid saunas cost more?
A 5-person hybrid sauna isn’t cheap, but you’re essentially getting two saunas for the price of one. It’s hard to argue with that value! Plus, you get the lowest price online at Premium Saunas, guaranteed, with free shipping to boot.
Is it difficult to install a hybrid sauna for 5 people?
Our saunas always ship as kits that anyone can assemble. It may take a weekend of work, but you don’t need any special skills or equipment. The one caveat is that a licensed electrician should always handle wiring the 240V/40A electrical connection.
