An outdoor infrared sauna is a weatherproofed wooden cabin, with a pitched or shingled roof, and carbon infrared panels inside. It runs cooler than a traditional sauna and needs no stove or rocks, just a suitable power supply. Here are four outdoor infrared saunas on Amazon now, with the specs each listing gives.

The best outdoor infrared saunas on Amazon
1. Albott Outdoor 4 Person: best for four
The Albott is built for the garden: an asphalt shingle roof with ridge cover, a waterproof layer and Finnish spruce walls, at 59.1 x 59.1 x 98.4 inches. Inside are 12 carbon panels and a heated stone foot area, with color lighting, Bluetooth speakers, a reading light, an LCD panel and 2 windows.

2. SALUSHEAT Outdoor 5 Person: best for a group
The biggest cabin here, at 81.1 inches wide, 60.6 deep and 83.5 high, with an interior of 67.5 x 53.4 x 70.1 inches. It’s solid fir, with far infrared heat at the front, back, shoulders, legs, calves and feet, plus a 660nm red and 850nm near-infrared light panel. It draws 2550 watts on 240V at 20 amps with a NEMA 6-20 plug, sets up to 149°F and 60 minutes, and has 2 color lights, 4 reading lamps and 2 Bluetooth speakers, per its listing.
3. SALUSHEAT Outdoor 3 Person: full spectrum
The SALUSHEAT adds 660nm red and 850nm near-infrared LEDs to 7 far infrared panels, for what it calls full spectrum heat. It’s solid fir, 81.1 inches wide, 45 deep and 83.5 high, with seats that fold flat so you can lie down, a 6mm tempered glass door, a control panel, reading lights and Bluetooth. The maximum is 149°F. It’s rated 1950W on a 20 amp circuit and comes with a 2-year quality warranty.
4. OUTEXER Outdoor 2 Person: best for two
For two people, this OUTEXER is 48.8 x 38.19 x 81.89 inches in Canadian fir and red cedar, with 2080 watts of carbon panels, a separately controlled foot heater and a range of 68°F to 149°F. It ships curbside by freight and needs a signature on delivery.
Before you buy an outdoor infrared sauna
- Power: outdoor infrared cabins draw more than indoor ones. Two of these need 240V, and both SALUSHEATs need a 20 amp circuit, so get an electrician to check your supply and run a weatherproof outdoor circuit.
- Base: set it on a level, solid pad such as concrete or pavers, raised slightly so water drains away from the floor.
- Roof and weather: a shingled or pitched roof sheds rain and snow. In cold climates, expect longer warm-ups, as several listings note.
- Delivery: these arrive curbside on a pallet. You’ll need two or more people to carry the panels to the spot and assemble them.
Infrared or traditional outdoor sauna?
Infrared cabins run at about 120°F to 150°F and warm you directly; they plug in and need no stove or rocks. A traditional outdoor sauna, such as a barrel sauna, heats rocks with an electric or wood stove, reaches much higher temperatures and lets you make steam. For an indoor sauna, see our home infrared sauna picks. Either way, read our guide to using a sauna safely.
Frequently asked questions
Can you put an infrared sauna outside?
Only one built for it. Outdoor models like these have a weatherproof roof and waterproofing. An indoor infrared sauna shouldn’t be left outside, and many indoor warranties exclude outdoor use.
What power does an outdoor infrared sauna need?
It varies. The Albott 4 Person and SALUSHEAT 5 Person need 240V, and the SALUSHEAT 3 Person needs a 20 amp circuit, per their listings. Use a weatherproof outdoor circuit installed by an electrician.
How hot does an outdoor infrared sauna get?
The OUTEXER and SALUSHEAT models here list a maximum of 149°F. Cold weather lengthens the warm-up, and several listings say so.
How big is a 4 person outdoor infrared sauna?
The Albott 4 Person is 59.1 x 59.1 x 98.4 inches, per its listing. For room for five, the SALUSHEAT 5 Person is 81.1 x 60.6 x 83.5 inches.
What base does an outdoor sauna need?
A level, solid surface such as a concrete pad, pavers or a strong deck, raised slightly so rainwater drains away from the floor.
