Powerful 2 Person Infrared Sauna UK (Must Buy)

Today we will be diving into the world of 2 person infrared saunas. More specifically, we will be looking at the Fonteyn Bella 2 person infrared sauna in the UK.

What Is An Infrared Sauna?

An infrared sauna is a type of sauna that uses infrared heaters to emit infrared light experienced as radiant heat which is absorbed by the surface of the skin. Here's a more detailed explanation:

1. Technology: Unlike traditional saunas that use heat to warm the air, infrared saunas use infrared lamps (that use electromagnetic radiation) to warm your body directly.

2. Heat Range: They typically operate at lower temperatures (usually between 20 - 65 degrees) compared to traditional saunas.

3. Heating Method: The infrared panels emit a wavelength of light that your body absorbs. This light penetrates human tissue, warming your body before warming the air.

4. Types: There are different types based on the wavelength of infrared light used: near-infrared, mid-infrared, and far-infrared.

5. Design: They often look like wooden rooms or cabins, similar to traditional saunas, but can also come in more compact, portable designs.

6. Purpose: They're used for relaxation, potential health benefits, and as an alternative for those who find traditional saunas uncomfortable due to the high heat.

7. Session Duration: Typical sessions last about 15-30 minutes.

The primary difference between an infrared sauna and a traditional sauna is the heating method and the depth of heat penetration into the body.

Features & Benefits

Drawbacks Of This 2 Person Infrared Sauna?

While the Fonteyn Bella 2 Person Infrared Sauna offers many benefits, there are some potential drawbacks to consider:

1. Space Requirements: Despite being compact for a two-person sauna, it still requires a dedicated space in your home. The dimensions (120 w x 105 d x 190 h cm) may be challenging for smaller living areas.

2. Health Considerations: Saunas can pose risks for some individuals, such as those with heart conditions or low blood pressure. It's always advisable to consult a doctor before regular sauna use.

3. Dehydration Risk: Sauna use can lead to dehydration if proper hydration practices are not followed.

How Is It Delivered?

The sauna is delivered flat packed in two separate boxes which weigh around 60kg each. Two people are needed to assemble this infrared sauna and can be installed within 30 minutes.

Installation & Space Considerations

Because the Bella 2 arrives flat-packed in two boxes weighing around 60kg each, it’s worth thinking through the delivery route before it turns up. Measure doorways, hallways, and any staircases between your entrance and the room you plan to install it in, and make sure there’s enough ceiling height and doorway width to get boxes of that size through comfortably. If you’re carrying them up or down stairs, having a second person on hand from the start — as recommended for assembly — makes this a lot easier.

Once the boxes are in the room, allow some clearance space around the cabin itself, beyond its 120cm x 105cm footprint, so you can access all sides comfortably during assembly and so the door can swing open fully once it’s built. The included installation guide sets out the exact clearances and assembly steps, so it’s worth giving it a read before you start.

The Bella 2 is designed to be plug-and-play, running from a standard UK socket rather than needing dedicated electrical wiring, which makes it realistic to fit into a spare room, garage, conservatory, or garden building without an electrician. That said, it’s still sensible to check the floor is level and can comfortably bear the weight of the cabin plus two occupants, and to think about ventilation in the room — infrared saunas release heat and some moisture during a session, so a space that isn’t fully airtight will be more comfortable to use afterwards.

If you’re tight on space, remember the compact footprint is one of the Bella 2’s main selling points compared to larger multi-person cabins — but “compact for a two-person sauna” still means a dedicated 120cm x 105cm floor area plus clearance, so it’s worth measuring your intended spot before you buy rather than after the boxes arrive.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you really burn 600 calories in an infrared sauna?

You’ll see this figure quoted a lot, but it’s worth knowing where it comes from before taking it at face value. The oft-repeated “up to 600 calories per session” claim traces back mostly to manufacturer testing rather than independent, peer-reviewed research. More conservative estimates, based on a 2017 conference abstract and manufacturer testing, put calorie burn from a typical infrared sauna session in the region of 300–500 calories — and even those figures come from small, un-peer-reviewed studies. Some of that number also reflects short-term water loss through sweating rather than genuine fat burning, so it isn’t directly comparable to calories burned through exercise. In short: infrared sauna use can support a modest calorie burn as part of a wider routine, but the 600-calorie figure shouldn’t be treated as an established, scientifically verified number.

Are infrared saunas really worth it?

For most people considering a home sauna, “worth it” comes down to cost, convenience, and how much you value the experience, rather than any single health outcome. Running cost is low — the Bella 2 costs around 70p per hour to run, which compares favourably to an ongoing spa or gym membership over time, especially if more than one person in the household uses it. Having a sauna at home also removes the friction of booking a slot or travelling to use one, so you’re more likely to actually use it regularly. Beyond the cost and convenience case, most owners find genuine value in the relaxation, muscle recovery, and wind-down routine that regular sauna use supports, without needing to rely on more ambitious health claims to justify it. Whether it’s worth it for you will depend on how often you’d realistically use it and how much you value having that option at home versus travelling elsewhere.
