Clearlight Premier IS-2
8.7/ 10
Clearlight's value line: cedar construction and the same low-EMF philosophy and lifetime warranty, dropping the full-spectrum near-infrared. Excellent value for indoor infrared.

The verdict at a glance

- Lifetime residential warranty
- Strong value versus the Sanctuary
Trade-offs
- Far-infrared only (no near-infrared LEDs)
- Cooler than traditional saunas
- Voltage varies by configuration
Our review
The Premier IS-2 keeps Clearlight's low-EMF True Wave heaters and lifetime residential warranty in a solid cedar or basswood cabin, but uses far-infrared rather than the Sanctuary's full-spectrum system. For most home users chasing a warm, sweat-inducing session, far-infrared alone is plenty, and top temperatures land in the same 125–145°F range.
It undercuts the Sanctuary meaningfully while retaining the important advantages: a genuinely good cabin and the best warranty in the category. Buyers who specifically want near-infrared LEDs should step up to the Sanctuary; everyone else will find the Premier the smarter spend.
