Top Ways A Sauna Heater Will Maximise Home Relaxation


Top Ways A Sauna Heater Will Maximise Home Relaxation
 
A domestic sauna is a great way to relax, unwind and spend time together with your friends and family. Unlike the traditional Finnish versions, saunas today feature elegant, contemporary looks and are the perfect antidotes to the pressures of daily life. Although made up of different elements, the heart of a sauna is the heater, containing the special sauna stones which immerse you in pleasant heat when splashed with water.
 
Once you’ve finalised the design plan for your sauna room, you have several types of sauna heaters to choose from like an electric heater, gas heater, infrared heater and wood heater. Basically, the various heaters are designed depending on the type of fuel options to be used for the sauna. Let’s take a look at some of the ways a sauna heater helps to maximise home relaxation.

Quick Heat-Up Time
 
Sauna heaters, particularly the electric and infrared variants, have fast warm up times with accurate temperature controls. Just flick the switch, wait for a short period and you are ready to sweat! Each Tylo sauna heater provided by Leisurequip UK has an integral control panel with thermostat and timer located, most commonly, near the base of the heater for fast heating.
 
Low Energy Consumption
 
To minimise the consumption of energy, always select a heater with the highest recommended output in relation to the volume of the sauna. The higher the output, the quicker will be the heating-up time and the lower the amount of electricity actually consumed. Tylo heaters by Leisurequip, in particular, are known for their low energy consumption. This is because of our patented divided output construction, which causes the heater to automatically switch to the stand-by mode once the desired constant bathing temperature is reached.
 
Easily Controlled
 
You can easily operate and control all home sauna heaters with help of the control panel. By using such control units, you can pre-set the heating mode and temperature both for daily and weekly operations. The sauna heater and control panel can be designed either together or separately so that it can be mounted outside the sauna.
 
Reliability
 
Reliability is the first priority for companies while manufacturing heaters and other components of a sauna. All certified products are safe and reliable. Most of the sauna heaters are made from materials like stainless steel, solid cast aluminium and have temperature cut-off and thermostat sensors to ensure that they are safe and built to last.


At Leisurequip UK, our Tylo sauna heaters are designed to offer you a luxurious sauna experience. The heaters are also the perfect choice for all types of sauna bathing – dry, wet or in clouds of soothing steam. You can further enhance the experience with the help of our luxury sauna accessories like natural herbs or liquid essences.

How to Create a Health Spa in Your Own Home




How to Create a Health Spa in Your Own Home

In today’s stress-filled world, spas offer us a much-needed refuge for the rejuvenation of our mind and body. Health spa treatments ranging from steam baths to hot tubs and ex-foliating facials have often been linked with potential medical benefits like reducing chronic pain, easing depression and improving immunity. With just a little creativity and imagination, you can easily experience the therapeutic effects of a spa in the privacy of your own home.

Warm Bath Spaces

If you are looking for heated treatment rooms to help relax your mind and body, you can select from a range of options commercially available for home-use purpose. Some popular warm bath spaces include the caldarium, tepidarium and the laconium. These different forms of steam rooms have been used since ancient times for therapeutic as well as ritualistic purposes.

The caldarium, also known as a Roman Hot Bath, has heated surfaces supplied by electric heating units. The intensive warmth in the caldarium penetrates into our body to provide a deep relaxing effect.

The laconium, on the other hand, is a dry sweating room that causes our body to heat up slowly and gently. As compared to a caldarium room, the laconium has a pleasant temperature that provides a more relaxing and less intense experience. A tepidarium is a dry, warm seating area where you can relax pre and post spa treatments. At Leisurequip UK, we supply and install a range of heated treatment rooms designed for home use. All our luxury spas and steam rooms can be customised to suit your personal preferences.

Salt Therapy

Salt therapy or halotherapy is well-known for its potential health benefits, like reducing anxiety, regulating sleep patterns and curing certain respiratory ailments. Now, you can also enjoy the many beneficial effects of this natural remedy in the comfort of your own home by creating salt therapy rooms for private use. You can select from our range of salt therapy steam rooms at Leisurequip and create a luxury spa experience for you and your family. In addition to this, you can also opt for salt vaporisers and purifiers and artificially reproduce the micro-climate of salt therapy centres.

Home Foot Spas

A luxury foot spa is a great way to unwind and give your feet the attention they really deserve. However, to do so, you do not have to travel all the way to a health spa just to get top-of-the-line primping for your feet. You too can create a luxury foot spa experience in the comfort of your home.

At Leisurequip UK, we supply therapy rooms to recreate the ultimate pampering experience of a luxury foot spa in your own home. Our professionally installed spa baths provide both cold and hot options for the feet, as part of a total reflexology treatment. Being the approved dealer-installer for Tylo, Sweden's renowned sauna producer, we also offer a range of other spa products for home pampering and customise these features to suit any design and space.

The Top 5 Benefits of a Sauna


The Top 5 Benefits of a Sauna
 
For years, saunas have been touted for their potential health benefits, like total body relaxation and cleansing. If you have ever been in a sauna, you will know how invigorating and revitalising a good, healthy sweat can be. Saunas have been around since ancient times and the Finns even used it as a place to purify the mind and prepare the dead for burial.
 
What particularly separates saunas from other forms of steam baths is the type of heat used. Unlike steam rooms, which feature moist heat, saunas use dry heat at temperatures normally between 158 to 212 degrees Fahrenheit. Today, you can also enjoy the relaxing experience of a luxury spa resort in the comfort of your own house by installing house saunas like the Tylo rangeby Leisurequip in your bathroom.
 
Saunas for Stress Relief
 
Research has often shown that a sauna can have a therapeutic, calming effect on your body. This not only can help to relax your tense muscles, but may also provide pain relief to aching joints in your body. Infrared sauna therapy, in particular, has been shown to reduce the negative physical impact of stress on our bodies. An infrared sauna session with Leisurequip’s infra prime sauna range can help you melt away all the stress in your life by providing a quiet, comfortable atmosphere.
 
Improved Circulation
 
You may have noticed the rosy glow of your own body following a sauna bath. This occurs because of the dilatation of the capillaries in your body causing increased blood flow to your skin. The heat of the sauna that leads to this increased circulation causes the nutrients to move towards the subcutaneous and surface tissue level, resulting in healthy glowing skin.
 
Elimination of Toxins
 
Skin is the largest organ in our body, so it is natural that it plays a major role in eliminating undesirable toxins by means of sweating. Saunas have long been used for the process of detoxification and cleansing the body. However, while using saunas, you should drink plenty of fluids to help replace the water you've lost through sweating. This is also important for the proper functioning of the kidneys, which require water for flushing out toxins like urea.
 
Relief from Arthritis
 
For many of us suffering from arthritis in the form of daily pain and stiffness, the good news is that infrared saunas could help to ease the symptoms to a considerable extent. The heat from the sauna might help to lower the inflammation and puffiness in the affected joints, causing reduction in the pain and discomfort. The detoxifying effect of a sauna therapy can further help to flush the body of the by-products of anti-inflammatory medications that you might have taken for treating the condition.
 
Cardiovascular Benefits
 
When we think of cardio-vascular conditioning, we often resort to aerobic training like walking, jogging and swimming for staying healthy. However, what most of us overlook is that infrared sauna systems are known for potentially improving the cardiovascular health of people. Leisurequip’s range of Tylo saunas, which comes in different sizes and ranges, could help to condition our heart muscles and improve our heart rate or cardiac output.
 
If you are looking for luxury sauna treatments within your own domestic settings, Leisurequip UK can assist you with the process. They are the approved dealer-installer for Tylo, Sweden's renowned sauna producer, offering an impressive collection for a complete home spa experience.

Leisurequip have been working with Latham Architects and Farrans Construction on a bespoke sauna project in Suffolk. The property Chadacre Hall, the ancient seat of the Plampin family built in 1835 which has undergone a total refit and addition of indoor swimming pool with a rising floor mechanism so it can be used as a room when the pool is not in use. This feature overlooks the estate within a modern contemporary glass structure which blends beautifully with the historic building. The house featured below in "The Times" has had a substantial additional wing the the left of the picture which nearly doubles the size of the house and includes garaging..
