The Saunum Air 5 combines three systems in one assembly:
- Traditional electric sauna heater
- High-capacity stone basket
- Integrated climate-equalizing air system
The telescopic intake draws hotter air from the ceiling area. The system blends this air with cooler air from the lower part of the cabin and returns the mixed air beneath the bench area.
This circulation helps:
- Reduce extreme temperature stratification
- Create more consistent head-to-foot temperatures
- Distribute heat across opposing seating areas
- Produce a gentler perceived temperature without eliminating traditional heat
- Distribute steam more evenly after water is applied to the stones
- Support cabin drying after use
The climate equalizer offers three fan-speed settings through the AirIQ control.
- Published Saunum Air 5 room range for the stainless open-basket version: Approximately 106–212 cu. ft.
- Published room range for some Nordic Black solid-body versions: Approximately 106–177 cu. ft.
- COMO 4-180 interior volume: Approximately 166 cu. ft.
- The physical room volume falls within the published Air 5 range
- Effective heater sizing must also account for the glass door and any uninsulated surfaces
- Heater finish and final adjusted room volume must be confirmed before ordering
