Know before you buy
No, this model requires a separate external digital control unit to operate. This allows you to mount the controls outside the sauna room for easier access and better temperature management.
The PC110E has a large capacity and requires up to 120 kg (270 lbs) of sauna stones. Using the full amount is recommended to ensure the heater functions efficiently and provides the soft, consistent steam characteristic of Finnish saunas.
This unit is rated for sauna rooms up to 18 m³ (635 cubic feet). If your sauna is significantly smaller than this, the 10.5 kW output may be too powerful, leading to rapid overheating and an uncomfortable environment.
Yes, the open-front pillar design allows you to customize your steam experience. By pouring water onto the top of the stones, you get a sharper, hotter steam, while pouring water onto the sides of the pillar produces a softer, more gentle steam.
The PC110E is a 10.5 kW unit operating on 240V/1-phase power. Because of its high power draw, it must be installed by a licensed electrician to ensure it meets local building codes and safety standards.
While the stainless steel housing is durable and high-quality, it will become very hot during use. We recommend installing a wooden safety railing around the heater to prevent accidental contact.
