Your sauna is your personal oasis. That calm, quiet space where you can relax, unwind and recharge your batteries to face the day ahead – or prepare them for tomorrow. While your Good Health Sauna doesn’t require a lot of maintenance, there are a few things you should do to make sure it remains a haven in your home.

Keep the glass clean.

All glass can become dirty or dusty over time. In a sauna, the constant cycles of heating and cooling can make the grime more difficult to remove. About once a month or so, clean the glass on the inside and outside of your sauna with a natural glass cleaner to keep it streak-free and squeaky-clean.

Keep those seats and backrests clean, too.

When you sauna, you sweat. After all, that’s pretty much the point, right? And sometimes, sweat can stain all that lovely wood. It may be surprising, but one of the best ways to remove sweat stains from the wooden benches and backrests in your sauna is with fine sandpaper. Lightly go over the stained area until the stain is gone. If the stain is too deep, try a wood surface cleaner designed for saunas. No matter what, though, don’t use bleach. This can actually dry out the wood and cause splintering over time – something you definitely want to avoid! To avoid stains in the first place, always sit on a clean towel, and place another behind your back and against the headrest.

Don’t forget the exterior.

If you really want to keep your Good Health Sauna looking as great as it did the day it was installed, you can use high-quality furniture cleaners and polishers on the exterior wood and door handles. Just clean with a soft cloth like you would any piece of wood furniture in your home.

Your sauna was an investment in personal peace.

But it’s hard to feel peaceful when your environment isn’t clean and well-maintained. With just a little effort, you can make sure your Good Health Sauna remains just as lovely and serene as the day it was installed.
