Heat-up and cost are our heat model's estimate for each size in a room at the middle of its range: indoor, insulated walls, 68 °F around the sauna, heated to 176 °F, one hour of bathing, electricity at $0.18/kWh (United States average). The maker does not publish this stove's output; the heat-up times use a rough figure from its room range.
