Know before you buy
Yes, the 6kW Harvia KIP heater requires a hardwired electrical connection. You will need a licensed electrician to ensure the circuit meets local building codes and safety requirements.
Thermally modified hemlock is specifically treated to resist rot, decay, and moisture absorption. This makes the wood significantly more stable and durable than standard lumber when exposed to outdoor elements year-round.
The sauna is designed for DIY assembly using pre-cut, interlocking panels. Most users can complete the build in about three hours with basic tools and a second person to assist with lifting the panels.
Yes, the Harvia heater allows for both styles. You can enjoy a traditional dry heat session or pour water over the included sauna rocks to create a burst of steam for increased humidity.
The sauna must be placed on a level, solid surface such as a concrete pad, paved patio, or a sturdy, treated wood deck. It is important that the base is flat to ensure the interlocking panels align correctly and the structure remains stable.
The 6kW heater is sized specifically for this compact space, allowing it to reach comfortable sauna temperatures in under an hour. Actual warm-up time may vary slightly depending on the ambient outdoor temperature.
