What It Does for Your Body

Health Benefits of the Atlas Outdoor™

Cardiovascular Health

Passive heat raises heart rate comparably to moderate aerobic exercise, improving circulation, reducing resting blood pressure, and supporting long-term cardiovascular resilience.

Deep Detoxification

VantaWave® far infrared penetrates tissue to mobilise heavy metals and lipid-soluble toxins, flushing them through sweat at concentrations 7× higher than conventional perspiration.

Pain & Recovery

Increased circulation delivers oxygen and nutrients to muscle tissue, reducing soreness and accelerating repair. Clinical evidence supports its use for chronic pain, fibromyalgia, and arthritis.

Better Sleep

Post-session core temperature drop mimics the body's natural sleep-onset signal, deepening slow-wave sleep and measurably improving sleep quality and duration.

Stress Relief

Far infrared activates the parasympathetic nervous system, lowering cortisol and building long-term resilience. Heat-induced endorphin release promotes sustained calm without stimulants.

Skin Health

Increased circulation and deep sweating flush pores of impurities, while red light therapy (660nm) stimulates collagen production — improving tone, texture, and cellular turnover.

Atlas™ integrated red light therapy bench — clinical 2–6 inch distance

Our #1 Differentiator

Integrated Red Light Therapy — Built Into the Bench.

Clinical research validates photobiomodulation at 2–6 inches from the source. We build the bench at 2–6 inches. Every other manufacturer mounts it on the wall at 24+. The difference isn't marginal — it's the whole point.

Unlike add-on panels or aftermarket lights, the Atlas™ red light bench is seamlessly engineered into the sauna itself — the only system capable of combining full-body far infrared with targeted red light therapy in one unified, professional-grade design.

What Atlas Outdoor™ Owners Are Saying

Our backyard retreat.

We put the Atlas Outdoor on our patio and it's become our favorite part of the house. Through winter, through rain — it fires up fast and the heat is deep. Incredible build quality.

Built like a tank.

I've had cheap outdoor saunas crack and warp after one season. The Atlas Outdoor is on another level — 1,450 lbs of cedar and steel. It barely notices the weather. And the red light bench is a game-changer.

Chris M.Denver, CODec 2025

Better than any spa.

We use ours every single day. The whole family fits, the heat is consistent, and the fact that it has red light built in means we don't need separate devices. SaunaCloud's team walked us through everything.

Common Questions

Atlas Outdoor™ Infrared Sauna FAQ

What makes the Atlas Outdoor different from other outdoor saunas?

The Atlas Outdoor is the world's first outdoor sauna with true red light integration — combining far infrared heat with clinical-grade red light therapy in a structure purpose-built for year-round outdoor use. At 1,450 lbs with A-grade Western Red Cedar and a commercial-grade frame, it's engineered for the elements, not just rated for them.

Can it handle cold weather and snow?

Yes. The Atlas Outdoor is designed for year-round use in any climate. High-wattage VantaWave® heaters reach full temperature even in sub-zero conditions. The flat roof is engineered for snow load, and the exterior vertical black wood paneling resists UV, moisture, and temperature extremes.

How many people does it fit?

The Atlas Outdoor comfortably seats 3–4 adults with a 7' × 5' interior. The bench layout includes a red light therapy bench for lying down and a traditional seated bench for upright sessions.

Does it include red light therapy?

Yes. Like the Atlas One, the Atlas Outdoor features a bench-integrated red light therapy system with medical-grade LEDs positioned within 6 inches of your body. You can run infrared, red light, or both simultaneously via our app-controlled power supply.

What are the electrical requirements?

The Atlas Outdoor requires a dedicated 240V, 50-amp circuit with 6-gauge copper wiring. It's hardwired with an outdoor-rated spa disconnect recommended near the unit. GFCI protection is required by code. We provide full electrical plans with every order.

What wood is used?

A-grade clear Western Red Canadian Cedar, kiln-dried and hand-selected. Naturally resistant to moisture, decay, and insects — it won't warp, split, or crack in any climate. The exterior is finished in vertical black wood paneling for a modern, architectural appearance.

Where should I place it?

On any level, drainable surface — a concrete pad, paver patio, or reinforced deck. Allow 2–3 feet of clearance on all sides. We recommend keeping it out of direct sunlight when possible to preserve the wood's natural color over time.

How long does delivery take?

Most Atlas Outdoor orders ship within 10–14 weeks of final design approval. Your sauna ships via ground freight — you'll receive tracking and the carrier will call to schedule your delivery window.

What's included in the warranty?

Every Atlas Outdoor comes with a limited lifetime warranty covering structure, heaters, red light system, and electrical components. Commercial installations are covered for 1 year. We've been building custom saunas since 2014.

Do your saunas emit EMFs?

No. All VantaWave® heaters, red-light systems, and power supplies are ultra-low EMF and zero ELF. Wiring is shielded and grounded throughout. Average EMF output: <0.5 mG.
