A FinSteam heater is flueless — there is no chimney to lose heat up, so virtually all combustion heat, including the latent heat carried in the water vapour, stays inside the sauna. That's why an 8.1 kW FinSteam outperforms its label — you can't compare nameplate kW across heater types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn 11 kg cylinder runs ≈ 18 hours at continuous full power — and real sessions use less, because full power is mainly for heat-up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eLab study source: TM Rakennusmaailma \/ Kymenlaakso UAS study of wood-fired heaters; FinSteam was not part of that test.

No chimney means no smoke and no problem in a smoke-control area. Propane keeps working through a British winter, so it's a genuine year-round, go-anywhere sauna. Running cost is about £2-£3 a session - nearer £3 on a portable 6 kg gas bottle, or £2-£2.50 on an economy 13 kg bottle. That's roughly level with an electric sauna: you choose gas for what it removes - the electrician, the wiring and the wait - not to cut your energy bill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe safety engineering\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGas in an enclosed space deserves serious engineering.
