Description
The Harvia KIP80B 8kW Sauna Heater is a traditional wall-mounted electric sauna heater designed to deliver powerful performance and an authentic Finnish sauna experience. Finished in durable black steel, the heater combines a classic sauna aesthetic with long-lasting corrosion resistance.
The heater features built-in time and temperature controls, allowing convenient operation directly on the unit without requiring a separate control panel.
Its dual-wall construction helps keep the exterior cooler to the touch while allowing the heater to warm up quickly. The generous stone capacity ensures even heat distribution and creates authentic löyly steam when water is poured over the heated stones.
Designed and manufactured in Finland, Harvia heaters are trusted worldwide for their quality, reliability, and sauna heritage.
Heating Performance
The Harvia KIP80B delivers 8.0kW of heating power, making it ideal for sauna rooms ranging from 250 to 425 cubic feet.
Harvia’s advanced heating elements provide fast warm-up times and consistent heat distribution, creating a comfortable sauna environment.
The heater requires 50 pounds of sauna stones, which absorb heat from the elements and gradually radiate warmth throughout the sauna room. Adding water to the stones produces traditional Finnish löyly steam.
