The heater is the heart of any sauna. Its type determines the atmosphere, convenience, and operating cost. Let's compare the two main options.
Electric Heaters
Harvia electric heaters are easy to operate: just press a button or set a program remotely. They are ideal for city saunas and rooms without a chimney. Power is selected based on the volume of the steam room (approximately 1 kW per 1 m³).
Wood-Burning Heaters
Wood-burning heaters create a traditional atmosphere with the aroma of wood and live heat. They are suitable for country saunas but require a chimney and space for fuel.
What to Choose
- Apartment or city house — electric heater.
- Country sauna — wood-burning heater.
- Commercial sauna — electric heater with remote control and timer.
How to Calculate Heater Power
The basic rule is approximately 1 kW per 1 m³ of steam room volume. For rooms with large glass areas, concrete, or stone walls, the power should be increased. The exact calculation depends on insulation and ventilation — we will help you choose a Harvia model for your steam room.
