Sauna heater safety switches

Sauna heater safety switches are essential components designed to enhance the safety of sauna heating systems. These clever electrical devices provide an additional layer of protection. They do this by allowing users to quickly and easily shut off the power supply to the sauna stove. This is ideal in case of emergencies or potentially hazardous situations.

The primary function of a sauna heater safety switch is to prevent overheating and electrical malfunctions that could lead to accidents, fires or other safety hazards. These emergency cut off switches are typically positioned inside the sauna room just above the heater. In many countries they are installed as a mandatory safety requirement in commercial and domestic saunas.
