Can I install this sauna inside my home?

Do I need an electrician for the installation?

Check that the door is fully sealed and the heater stones are arranged to allow airflow.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper installation is critical for the safety and longevity of your sauna. The unit must be placed on a level, solid surface such as a concrete pad or reinforced deck. Because this sauna requires hard-wiring, you must consult with a qualified electrician to ensure your home's electrical panel can support the dedicated circuit required for the 6kW stove. For maintenance, ensure the exterior is treated according to wood care guidelines to prevent weathering. After use, allow the sauna to vent by leaving the door slightly ajar to prevent moisture buildup, and wipe down the wooden surfaces with a damp cloth periodically.
