What you need to know before choosing a Far Infrared Sauna supplier
Caution needs to be taken when choosing a Far Infrared Sauna supplier. Know where the Far Infrared Saunas are manufactured. Be aware who you are buying your sauna from. Stay away from sellers that
import their saunas from unknown sources.
Look for proof of multiple safety certifications. Make sure that the sauna carries a legitimate NRTL (Nationally
Recognized Testing Laboratory) certification issued in North America such as CSA and CSA Canada. Don't just take a
salesperson's word for it. Have them provide a copy of the certification.
In many jurisdictions, it is illegal to sell or use electrical equipment that is not certified by a NRTL certification
company.
If you buy a product that has no certification, you are putting yourself at risk with your local building inspectors or
your home insurance company.
Check out the species
and quality of wood; know the satisfaction guarantee and the level of customer support provided.
Be skeptical of what is omitted from product material, brochures and ad copy. For example, you should be
concerned if a vendor claims: … "made of solid wood"; and there is no indication of the type of wood or where
it is milled. Also you should be very cautious if there is no information on who manufactures the Sauna.
Deal with reputable companies that have been around for years. Businesses come and go. Companies can offer a
5-10 year or lifetime warranty and be out of business in 1-2 years! Choose an industry
leader with a track record, one that specializes in Far Infrared Saunas.
Make sure that the company stands behind not only their products, but also their customers 100%. Ensure the
manufacturer carries product liability insurance.This is a good way to determine if a company and its products are
legitimate:
- No insurance company will underwrite a policy without investigating the company and/or the product
- Product liability insurance protects customers for any unfortunate events that may have been caused by the product.
Warranty only covers the product, but what about any property damage or loss? If a company does not carry product
liability insurance, it’s because they can’t afford it or they don’t care what happens to you.
In order for the planet to ensure its future health and wellness, it is incumbent upon mankind to respect and
nurture its natural resources. Do business with a company that adheres to the principles of sustainable
forestry. It’s in everyone’s best interests.
