Harvia Sauna Heaters FAQ's

The typical lead time for Harvia sauna heaters is between 7 to 9 days, depending on your location.

Harvia sauna heaters are distinguished by their combination of high-quality materials, efficient heating performance, and innovative design. They are known for their durability and the ability to produce consistent, even heat, enhancing the sauna experience. Harvia also offers a variety of models, including electric and wood-burning options, catering to different sauna sizes and preferences. Their commitment to energy efficiency and safety features further sets them apart from other brands.

Harvia sauna heaters can accommodate a range of sauna sizes, depending on the model:

  • KIP 8 kW: This traditional Finnish wall-mounted heater can power saunas up to 424 adjusted cubic feet and can accommodate 6–8 people. 
  • The Wall 8 kW: This heater can power home sauna rooms up to 423 cubic feet. 
  • KIP Steel Electric Sauna Heater: This heater can accommodate sauna rooms between 250–425 cubic feet. 
  • Club K15G: This 15 kW electric heater can heat rooms between 600–989 cubic feet. 
  • Cilindro 9: This heater can be installed against a side wall or in a corner and can accommodate rooms between 141–494 cubic feet. 
  • KIP-60W: This heater can accommodate rooms between 170–300 adjusted cubic feet. 

A general rule of thumb for sizing a sauna room is to have 1 kilowatt for every 50 cubic feet of space.

A Harvia electric sauna heater can reach a temperature of 190–195°F inless than an hour. The time it takes to heat a sauna depends on the size of the sauna, its insulation, and the desired temperature. For the first 30–40 minutes, the heater runs at full capacity.

Harvia heaters are primarily constructed from stainless steel and stone.

Stainless steel: This material is used for the heater's exterior, ensuring durability and resistance to rust and corrosion. It also helps to efficiently conduct heat.

Stone: Harvia heaters often utilize stone, such as olivine diabase, to store and release heat. These stones are chosen for their heat-retention properties, which contribute to a comfortable and long-lasting sauna experience.

While the specific materials and construction methods may vary slightly between different Harvia models, these two components are generally common across their range.

All Harvia products are made in Finland. Their headquarters is in Muurame, Finland, where the company also runs the world's largest sauna heater factory. Harvia's heaters are your traditional source for modern well-being. From the beginning, Harvia's heaters have been forged with quality as a priority. With over 70 years of craftsmanship, Harvia heaters are reliably built to last.

All Harvia electric sauna heaters come with a 2-year guarantee. Please check the specific warranty for your Harvia product here: Warranty

Harvia sauna heaters are hardwired to an electrical box and require 220 volts. A licensed electrician should perform all electrical wiring to ensure compliance with local codes and regulations.

The Harvia Xenio series includes the CX30, CX45, CX170, and Xenio WiFi remote control, all part of their sauna control system.

The CX30, CX45, and CX170 are control units that manage sauna functions like temperature and humidity, with the main difference being their power output, suitable for different sauna sizes.

  • CX30: Lower power output, suitable for smaller saunas.
  • CX45: Medium power output, suitable for medium-sized saunas.
  • CX170: Higher power output, suitable for larger saunas.

The Xenio WiFi remote control is a wireless panel that connects to these units, allowing remote control via a smartphone or tablet.




Yes, some Harvia heaters can be used without a controller. However, many modern Harvia models require a controller for optimal functionality and safety.

If your Harvia heater doesn't have a built-in controller, you'll need to purchase a compatible one to control the temperature, humidity, and other settings. The specific controller you'll need will depend on the model of your Harvia heater.
