Sauna Heater Stove 9kw Dry Sauna Stove With External Control Stainless Steel

This review is for a 220V 30Amp 3Kw USA model. I got this product for a very good price ($60 lower than lis price) with Amazon deal. I gave it a shot inspite of all the comments about installation being tricky. It sounds to me that the instruction manual needs a version update apart from that it was a straight forward installation. The manual has a give wire + ground circuit diagram while the real product has a 6 wire + ground circuit diagram. I have attached the picture of real product with wiring instructions that I used for my product which worked like a charm. I read lot of reviews and decided to use a 50 Amp RV replacement wire which was more expensive than the heater itself but errored towards safety. Hope others benefit from this product if you want to avoid 100s

So I hemmed and hawed over all the heaters on Amazon. I chose the 6kw, my sauna is 5x4.5. Without adding vents (yet) it gets up to about 150! I believe when I add the vents we l be at 160. It really is a good buy. I wish there was an indication light that it was on. You cannot go wrong with this heater for a small sauna. One tip ?rinse your sauna stones! Man did it smoke! Pulled rocks, rinsed and never had any smoke. Hahah. This is an indoor sauna, I did insulate and also did the foil vapor barrier. I recommend that as well. Enjoy your sauna!!

Heats my sauna up in 30 min. Works well, looks good. Not sure why you would buy a 3x more expensive Finnish heater, this thing gets the job done.Notice that at first it puts out smoke because of the oil on the coils. This stained my wood. Would be best to let it smoke outside first.The electrician was dissatisfied with the size of the conduit holes st first, but it ended up looking good. See photos.

Works as designed. Heats quick. Easy installation. Could not ask for anything better. Met all expectations. Hope the durabity matches the daily use.

Couldn't find a review that addressed the wiring, so I thought I'd lend some advice.I bought 8-3 wire for this 9kw sauna, and intended to run it to a 50 amp breaker. In the us, it's a 240V, which means you need 2 hits, 120v each. Here's the main thing, when you use the wiring, you only use the red, black, and ground. The white neutral is not used. A lot of units, like dryer or stove have parts of wiring that need a 120v, like a digital timer or a light, but this system is built only on the 240v, so it doesn't need that. With that in mind, the wiring is simple. Red on one side, black on other, put on the 2 pole breaker with red on one side of breaker, black on the other....hook up the ground, but neutral isnt wired up. Good luck. Talk to licensed electrician if unsure at all.Sauna rocks- I bought lava rocks, like what goes inside gas grill...works perfect. Also at first I didnt put the rocks down deep in the sauna, but it does need that. That helps it hold and release heat. Fill it up and then put rocks on top. Picture above doesn't have rocks on top yet.Good luck, good value
