Buyer's Guide
Which infrared saunas are made in the USA?
Buy TheraSauna's TS5951 for a far-infrared cabin built in Iowa. Only four makers we found say they build infrared saunas in the US, so this guide stays short.
Buy TheraSauna's TS5951 if you want a far-infrared cabin for two that its maker builds in the US. TheraSauna builds it in DeWitt, Iowa, from aspen, and it runs on a 120V outlet with a circuit of its own. We looked for infrared saunas whose makers say on their own pages where they build them, and found four: TheraSauna in Iowa, Almost Heaven in West Virginia, SaunaSpace in Missouri and Sauna Comfort in Wisconsin. Four falls short of the five brands we want before calling something a roundup, so each one gets a proper section here and nothing gets padded in.
Four American infrared saunas fit in one table
These are the infrared saunas we list whose makers say where they build them, sorted by price. Two are cabins with emitters in the walls, and two are near-infrared saunas that sit you in front of a panel of heat lamps.
| Sauna | Built in | Wood | Heat | Power | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sauna Comfort Complete bundle (1) | Wisconsin | Basswood the maker says grew in Wisconsin | 4 near-infrared lamps | Standard 120V outlet | $2,898 |
| SaunaSpace FireLight Classic (1) | Columbia, MO | Basswood the maker calls American | 4 near-infrared bulbs, 1,000 W | Standard 120V outlet | $4,995–$7,995 |
| Almost Heaven Hinton (2–3) | Renick, WV | Cedar from the US Northwest and Canada | 5 full-spectrum panels | Dedicated 120V outlet | $6,840 |
| TheraSauna TS5951 (2) | DeWitt, IA | Aspen, source not stated | 10 ceramic far-infrared emitters | 120V, 20-amp outlet | $6,995 |
List prices read Oct 10, 2026, before sales tax and freight. TheraSauna sells through dealers, so the TS5951's price is a dealer's. No maker here says where its emitters or bulbs are made.
TheraSauna's TS5951 is the cabin to buy
TheraSauna says it builds its saunas in its own plant in DeWitt, Iowa. The TS5951 seats two on a straight bench in an aspen room, with ten solid-ceramic TheraMitter emitters around you. It runs on a 120V, 20-amp outlet, per TheraSauna's page, and it's ETL listed under its maker, Quad Cities Automatic Pools, so an inspector has a file number to check.
The weak spot is buying it. TheraSauna posts no prices and sells through dealers, so the same cabin costs different amounts depending on who quotes it. It also doesn't publish a top temperature. Ask the dealer for both, and for the freight to your door.

Almost Heaven's Hinton seats a third person
The Hinton is a two-to-three-person cedar cabin, and Almost Heaven builds it in Renick, West Virginia, where its spec table lists the country of origin as the USA. Five panels heat it with far and near infrared, and it ships in two to three weeks, per Almost Heaven's page. The cedar grew in the US Northwest and Canada, per Almost Heaven.
Check the circuit before you wire for it. The product page asks for a 20-amp dedicated outlet and the manual asks for 15, and Almost Heaven doesn't publish the panels' wattage or the cabin's top temperature. Wire for 20 amps if you're unsure, and ask Almost Heaven for the rest.

SaunaSpace's FireLight folds into a corner
SaunaSpace says it makes all its products in its workshop in Columbia, Missouri, and the FireLight Classic wraps organic cotton canvas over a basswood frame it calls American. You sit facing four incandescent near-infrared bulbs, and the sauna draws about 8 amps from an ordinary wall outlet. It folds down between sessions, which suits a renter or a spare bedroom.
It's built for one, and the price climbs fast. Colored canvas adds up to $500 and the SilverLining shield adds $2,500. SaunaSpace also says its bulbs are powered on and splash-tested at a partner facility before Missouri tests them again, and it doesn't name the partner or the country.

Sauna Comfort's pod costs the least
Sauna Comfort says every unit is made in the USA by a family business in Wisconsin, working with Amish craftspeople. Its Complete bundle sets a four-lamp near-infrared array inside a hemp and organic cotton pod, and the basswood in the frame grew in Wisconsin, the maker says. It plugs into any household outlet.
It's the cheapest way into near-infrared we found, a little under $3,000 and less while Sauna Comfort's sale runs. The three-year warranty doesn't cover the bulbs, though, and the heat lamps come from Satco, which Sauna Comfort doesn't place. Budget for spare bulbs.

See the specifications and priceSunlighten builds its cabins in Vietnam
Sunlighten is based in Overland Park, Kansas, and it says it manufactures its saunas in Vietnam and ships them finished to its Kansas City warehouse. That puts its cabins outside this guide's table.
Most infrared saunas here run on 120 volts
None of the four American saunas above needs a 240V circuit. The two near-infrared saunas plug into an ordinary outlet. The two cabins want a 120V circuit with nothing else on it, and the TS5951 asks for 20 amps. If there isn't a free circuit near the spot, an electrician runs one, and our wiring guide covers what the National Electrical Code asks of it.
How we chose these saunas
This guide draws on each maker's product and about pages, read Oct 10, 2026, and on Sunlighten's quality page for where it builds. A sauna made the table only if its maker says on its own site that it builds it in the US. Prices are list prices before sales tax and freight. We didn't use owner reviews, and we didn't ask the makers for anything beyond what they publish.
