Quick Answer: Heavenly Heat has built home saunas since 1988, giving it the second-longest track record of any brand we cover — after Health Mate’s 1979 start, and ahead of Radiant Health (1997) and Clearlight (2003). Cabins are built from 100% non-resinous Canadian Hemlock with no plywood, wood glue, paint, or stains, and carbon heaters with grounded Faraday and cable shielding for low EMF/ELF. Independent testing at Garage Gym Reviews priced the 2-Person Far Infrared at about $5,600, backed by a 10-year cabin / 6-year electrical-and-heater warranty — but that same testing also found real-world heat-up ran 25-30 minutes against the brand’s claimed 10-15 minutes, and that manufacturing has expanded beyond the US to multiple countries.
Heavenly Heat is a high-volume brand search we haven’t covered until now, and it markets itself differently than most cabins on this site: instead of a clear list price, its own product pages lead with monthly financing figures (2-Person Far Infrared “from $189/mo,” the Combination line “from $334/mo”) rather than a single dollar amount. That’s not dishonest, but it does mean you have to do the multiplication yourself, or lean on independent reviews like Garage Gym Reviews’ $5,600 figure for the actual price of the cabin you’re financing.

1. Far Infrared 2-Person — the best-seller, independently priced at $5,600
Heavenly Heat Far Infrared 2-Person Sauna
- Built from 100% non-resinous Canadian Hemlock with zero plywood, wood glue, paint, or stains — a hypoallergenic build pitch distinct from the cedar cabinetry most competitors use.
- Carbon heaters carry grounded Faraday and cable shielding for low EMF/ELF, plus third-party VOC testing, though Heavenly Heat doesn't publish a headline milligauss figure any more than Health Mate does.
- Plugs into a standard 110/120V outlet; Garage Gym Reviews found two people could assemble it in about 45 minutes with no electrician needed.

The Amazon link above isn’t a Heavenly Heat cabin, because Heavenly Heat doesn’t sell through Amazon — it points to comparable Amazon-purchasable infrared saunas so you have a same-week option while you decide. One real-world catch from the same testing: heat-up ran 25-30 minutes in practice against Heavenly Heat’s claimed 10-15 minutes, and the bench measured about 41 inches wide (roughly 20.5 inches per person) — snugger than the “2-person” label might suggest.
2. Red Light/Near & Far Infrared — adds red light on the same hemlock base
Heavenly Heat Red Light/Near & Far Infrared Sauna (2 & 4-Person)
- Layers red light and near-infrared onto the same far-infrared base used across the standard line, rather than a separate heater technology.
- Available in 2-person and 4-person sizes — one of the few Heavenly Heat lines that scales to a 4-person footprint.
- No independently verified outright price exists for this line yet; the $250/mo financing figure is the only public number.
3. 2-Person Combination — infrared and traditional heat in one cabin
Heavenly Heat 2-Person Combination Sauna
- Combines infrared and traditional (rock-based) heat in a single cabin, so you're not choosing between the two styles up front.
- An outdoor-rated version of the Combination cabin exists alongside the indoor model, useful if placement is a constraint.
- For a straight traditional-heat comparison against dedicated steam and barrel cabins, see our best steam sauna guide.
The 1988 heritage, and the manufacturing shift its marketing doesn’t headline
Heavenly Heat markets itself as making the “Cleanest Home Saunas Since 1988,” and that checks out as a real, checkable start date — 38 years running, second only to Health Mate’s 1979 founding among the brands we cover, and well ahead of Radiant Health (1997) and Clearlight (2003). The “cleanest” claim leans on its zero-glue, zero-plywood, zero-stain Canadian Hemlock construction, which is a genuinely distinct build approach from the cedar cabinetry most competitors use.
What the marketing doesn’t headline: per Garage Gym Reviews’ 2026 testing, Heavenly Heat “used to manufacture their saunas in the United States but has recently expanded their manufacturing to multiple countries,” with some units prepared in Arizona and others sourced from European or Asian partner facilities. That’s a meaningful change from a brand whose 1988 founding story implies a single, long-running domestic operation — worth confirming directly with Heavenly Heat for the specific model you’re considering, rather than assuming continuity from the brand’s age alone.
Heavenly Heat vs. a published-price brand: which fits you
- You want the longest track record after Health Mate, plus a distinctive hemlock build: Heavenly Heat’s 1988 start and zero-glue Canadian Hemlock construction are genuine differentiators, and the $5,600 independently-verified price on its best-seller is competitive with mid-tier full-spectrum cabins elsewhere on this site.
- You want a single upfront list price instead of a monthly-financing figure: most of Heavenly Heat’s own product pages lead with “from $X/mo,” not a dollar total — check our best full spectrum infrared sauna guide for brands that publish a flat price.
- You care about where the cabin is actually built: ask Heavenly Heat directly which facility your specific model ships from, since the brand has moved beyond its original US-only manufacturing without making that shift a headline claim.
The bottom line
Heavenly Heat is a genuinely long-running sauna maker — 1988 to today, second only to Health Mate among the brands we cover — with a distinctive zero-glue Canadian Hemlock build and a 10-year cabin / 6-year electrical warranty. The Far Infrared 2-Person is the best-seller, independently priced at about $5,600, though real-world testing found heat-up running slower than advertised (25-30 minutes versus a claimed 10-15) and a bench that’s snugger than the 2-person label suggests. The other thing worth confirming before you buy: Heavenly Heat’s manufacturing has expanded beyond the US to multiple countries, a shift its own marketing doesn’t lead with.
