I’ve looked everywhere for a natural gas sauna steam generator. All suppliers have is electric or heater. I know electric is easier but gas should be much cheaper in the long run.

I don't know what part of the country you're located Frank, but I would imagine that if you have a natural gas distributor in your area that they would have any information as to whether or not this unit is available and where.
If they sell the feed then they should know where the critter is!

Frank,
Are you looking for a steam generator or dry sauna heater? A steam generator in natural gas should be available although I don't know if the up front cost would justify the use on a residential unit. It's just so much easier to install an electric steam generator in a small area such as in an adjacent closet, crawl space or attic.
On a sauna heater using natural gas I would think venting could be a problem and I question the safety of sitting in a room at an elevated temperature with gas heat should a malfunction occur.
*I'm in So. Calif. (cheap gas). You suggested gas distrib. I did that first. They said there were manufactors but it was against their policy to name names. Went to all sauna places, plumbing supply, and "serfed the internet". No luck.I have the room and perfect venting for gas. I like wet steam. My hydronic heat is so efficient it vents though a small PVC pipe. Frank...
