The ‘Pro’ Difference, Explained.
When it comes to investing in an infrared sauna, understanding the key differences between models can help you make a confident, informed decision. In this article, we compare the Clearlight® Sanctuary 2 Sauna and Sanctuary 2 Pro Sauna, two of our most popular two-person infrared saunas.
While both models deliver the same premium infrared therapy experience that Clearlight is known for—complete with full-spectrum heating, low EMF & ELF shielding, and luxury-grade craftsmanship—the Pro model includes several structural and performance upgrades that make it more robust, durable, and powerful.
Let’s break down the differences to help you choose the perfect sauna for your space and lifestyle.

The Big Difference: Power Requirements
One of the most important distinctions is the electrical setup:
-
Sanctuary 2 Sauna
🔌 500W FS Heater / 2,250W total
✅ 10A Plug – compatible with most standard Australian and New Zealand homes -
Sanctuary 2 Pro Sauna
🔌 700W FS Heaters / 2,650W total
⚠️ 15A Plug – may require a dedicated 15A circuit
This upgrade delivers a stronger infrared output, but may need minor adjustments during installation. You may wish to speak with one of our Sauna Experts first if you’re unsure.
