Who should buy which

Pick the Dreampod V2 Float Pod if

Family-office and studio wellness installs. Buyers serious about nervous-system regulation as part of a longevity protocol, with a dedicated ventilated room for the pod.

Skip if

You cannot accommodate a dedicated, ventilated room and circuit, or you have never floated. Try commercial float sessions ($50-100 each) first to validate the protocol before committing to a pod.

Pick the Saunum Air Series if

Traditional sauna enthusiasts who've found previous installations too dry, too vertically uneven, or too harsh - particularly couples where one partner finds traditional saunas uncomfortable.

Skip if

You want infrared (different category), you're budget-constrained ($6.5K+ start is real), or you need the largest service network (go Sunlighten or Clearlight).
