Electric Heater Shield for Panoramic Sauna

Panoramic Sauna Heater Shield - Custom Safety Solution

Product ID: SHIELD02

1. Purpose & Design

A low-profile, transparent or open-frame shield designed to protect users from burns without obstructing the panoramic sauna view. Ideal for:
 Glass-walled saunas where aesthetics matter
 Infrared + electric combo heaters
 Small spaces where traditional guards look bulky


2. Top Shield Options for Panoramic Saunas

Type Material Pros Cons Price
Tempered Glass 6mm toughened glass Fully transparent, sleek look Requires metal frame 250500
Minimalist Steel Thin stainless steel rods Nearly invisible from afar Can still get warm 180350
Cedar Slat (Low-Profile) White cedar strips Natural look, lightweight Needs more maintenance 200400
Acrylic Mesh Perforated acrylic Lightweight, modern Less durable over time 150300

3. Key Features to Look For

 Low Vertical Profile – Max 12–18" height to preserve sightlines
 Heat-Resistant – Withstands 200°F+ (93°C+) surface temps
 Easy Access – Removable panels for heater maintenance
 Ventilation – Open designs (≥50% air gaps) prevent overheating


4. Customization Tips

  • Glass Shields: Opt for bronze or gray tint to reduce glare

  • Metal Frames: Choose brushed nickel or black for discretion

  • Wood Guards: Use vertical slats (less visual obstruction than horizontal)


6. Installation Guide

  1. Measure Heater Clearance: Ensure shield doesn’t violate manufacturer’s required gaps (typically 4–6").

  2. Mounting:

    • Glass/Metal: Use silicone-lined clamps (no drilling)

    • Wood: Stainless steel L-brackets

  3. Test Heat Distribution: Use an IR thermometer to check for hot spots post-installation.
