Traditional Sauna Lighting With a Frosted Glass Glow

BUILT FOR THE SAUNA ROOM

Simple Materials Chosen for a Demanding Environment

The SSL-A146 combines a sealed wall-mounted design with materials suited to the temperature and moisture found inside a sauna.

01

Frosted Glass Globe

The satin-finish white globe diffuses the bulb’s light to produce a softer, more comfortable glow.

02

Brushed Aluminum Base

The aluminum mounting fixture offers a clean, understated appearance that coordinates with most sauna interiors.

03

Neoprene Gasket

A gasket sits between the fixture and mounting surface to help create a vapor-resistant wall connection.

04

Replaceable Bulb

The fixture uses a conventional replaceable incandescent bulb rather than a permanently integrated light source.

WARM, DIFFUSED ILLUMINATION

Enough Light to See Without Overpowering the Sauna

Sauna lighting should make it easy to move through the room while maintaining the quiet atmosphere that makes sauna bathing relaxing.

The frosted globe helps soften the bulb’s direct brightness, creating a more comfortable light for wood walls, benches, and changing conditions inside the hot room.

01
Softens Direct Glare

The frosted globe diffuses light across the room.

02
Improves Room Visibility

Helps users see benches, floors, doors, and steps.

03
Maintains a Traditional Look

Simple glass and aluminum complement natural sauna wood.

PLAN THE ROOM BEFORE WIRING

Sauna Light Placement

01

Wall-Mounted Design

The fixture mounts to a suitable electrical outlet box in the sauna wall.

02

Avoid Direct Heater Heat

Position the fixture away from the heater and outside all required heater safety clearances.

03

Minimize Direct Glare

Choose a location that illuminates the room without shining directly into seated users’ eyes.

04

Estimate Room Coverage

The supplier recommends approximately one fixture for every 30 square feet of sauna floor area.

Final placement should be reviewed by the sauna builder and electrician.

The wall cavity, electrical box, vapor barrier, heater location, bench layout, and intended switching method should all be confirmed before the interior wall material is completed.
