Most Concealed pend. will have the cover plate fall off at typical Sauna operation temps. Safeties on sauna's can be very high Temp. Check the MFG lit. to see what you can safely use. We typically use High Temp heads Exposed.
The ideal temperature of traditional saunas reach temperatures of up to 190F. This can leave the air hot and dry which requires the user to constantly pour water over the rocks which humidifies the air. Infrared technology operates at a mere 110-150F and does not require any special effort to keep the humidity at a desired level. Safety switches are usually set 15 to 20'F above max operation temp. So as high as 210'F. Some on this forum have used 286'F heads, we prefer 350'F. Thom McMahon, SET Firetech, Inc. 2560 Copper Ridge Dr P.O.
