Saunas have many health benefits for you – high temperatures encourage you to sweat, improve circulation and relax muscles, making them great to use around a healthy exercise lifestyle to improve your recovery.
However, because you’re sitting in a room with a high temperature, you want to be as comfortable as possible, and that includes making sure the sauna is well-lit. If you’re hot, you don’t want to be squinting in poor light.
So with that in mind, are LEDs a good idea for illuminating your sauna?
LED sauna lights are good for infrared saunas, which reach lower temperatures, but they aren’t recommended for traditional saunas as they get too hot and damage the bulb. For steam rooms, sauna light should ideally be IP68 rated to keep them safe from the vapor.
Infrared saunas are a slightly different proposition because they are designed to be smaller and don’t reach high temperatures.
An infrared sauna is usually heated to between 120°F and 140°F, so at the maximum level of the sauna, they won’t be impacting the lifespan of the LED sauna light.
Infrared sauna light does generate heat when it contacts a surface, but in any sauna, the infrared bulbs will be positioned away from the lighting so that they only reach the user.
If the infrared was pointed directly at your lighting, you would be heating the bulb, which would damage it and cause the lifespan to drop.
But in infrared saunas, the heat emitters are either adjacent to the sauna lights in the top of the sauna, pointing down, or they’re in the side and are directed horizontally.
The lights in the ceiling of the sauna will be fine.
So, you can use LED sauna lights in infrared saunas, without the impact on the lifespan of the bulb, providing it is within the temperatures mentioned above.
In a steam room, water is heated to generate a lot of steam – which means the air is extremely humid.
They can feel as hot as a sauna, but a lot of that is down to the humidity of the air – steam rooms generally reach a maximum of 110°F.
But just because the temperature is in a safe range, that doesn’t mean you don’t need to be careful when using LED bulbs in a steam room.
If the bulbs are penetrated by the humid air, the water will corrode the internal elements and could be dangerous too when it comes to changing the bulb.
That doesn’t mean that LED sauna lights are a complete no-no for steam rooms or for saunas where you’re going to keep the humidity high.
It just means you need to make sure you buy the right level of the waterproof bulb to ensure they stay safe.
IP68 is what you need to buy if you want to use LED sauna lights in a steam room or any humid setting with pressured steam.
