1 Person Indoor Infrared Saunas — Compact Home Cabins from £2,095
A 1 person infrared sauna is the easiest way to add a daily sauna habit to your home. With footprints from just 900mm × 900mm — roughly the space of a shower enclosure — these compact cabins fit en-suites, spare bedrooms, home gyms, and utility rooms, and every model in this range plugs straight into a standard UK 13-amp socket with no special wiring. Far infrared heats your body directly at a gentle 45–65°C, so a solo cabin pre-heats in 10–15 minutes and costs pennies per session to run.
Our 1 Person Range
The 900mm × 900mm KY004 (£2,095) is our most compact and affordable entry point. The Canadian Spa Chilliwack (£2,495) is our best-selling starter cabin, sized generously for one with room for a second at a squeeze. The Haven (£2,995) adds carbon and ceramic heaters with built-in storage in Canadian hemlock, and the sculptural Orb™ (£3,495) is a design statement for open-plan spaces.
Will It Fit?
Measure three things: floor space (from 900mm × 900mm), ceiling height (most cabins need 1.9–2m), and door access for the flat-pack panels. Cabins assemble in around 1–2 hours with two people and need no plumbing, flue, or dedicated ventilation — just a small air gap around the cabin.
Running Costs
Solo infrared cabins draw around 1.5–1.8 kW, so a 45-minute session costs roughly £0.40 at the UK average electricity rate — around £2 a week with daily-ish use. Model your exact figure with our Sauna Running Cost Calculator.
Need More Space?
If you'll ever share sessions, step up to a 2 person infrared sauna — the price difference is modest and the extra bench room is worth it. Browse the full indoor infrared sauna range, or compare all infrared saunas.

1 Person Infrared Sauna FAQs
How much does a 1 person infrared sauna cost in the UK?
Our 1 person indoor infrared saunas start at £2,095 for the compact 900mm KY004, with the best-selling Canadian Spa Chilliwack at £2,495 and premium designs up to £3,495.
How much space does a 1 person infrared sauna need?
From 900mm × 900mm of floor space — about the footprint of a shower enclosure — plus around 1.9–2m of ceiling height and a small air gap around the cabin.
Can I plug a 1 person infrared sauna into a normal socket?
Yes — every 1 person cabin in this range runs on a standard UK 13-amp plug socket with no special wiring required.
How long does a 1 person infrared sauna take to heat up?
Around 10–15 minutes from cold. The small cabin volume and direct body heating make solo cabins the fastest infrared saunas to pre-heat.

For solo daily use, yes — you sit comfortably upright with heaters surrounding you. If two of you will ever use it together, or you want to stretch out, choose a 2 person cabin instead.
