TOULE

Available in 6 kW & 9 kW Models: $786 – $949 CAD
For the price point vs quality, it doesn't get much better than this! This heater is the best bang for your buck both in its reliability and the features of this specific model (off-board digital controls, timers, etc.).
Pros | Cons |

HARVIA KIP

Available in 6 kW & 8 kW Models: $1 199 – $1 399 CAD
Harvia has been the biggest name in sauna heaters for over 70 years! The Harvia FLB model, made by Harvia in Finland, is a traditional Finnish-style wall-mounted sauna heater. What this one lacks in special and aesthetic features; it makes up for in heat and getting the job done.
Pros | Cons |

Harvia Cilindro

The Harvia Cilindro heater, known for its unique design featuring a massive stone quantity, offers a blend of gentle and powerful steam options. It's ideal for those seeking a versatile sauna experience, capable of creating a traditional sauna atmosphere with the convenience of electric heating.
Pros | Cons |
---|---|
|
|
With its modern yet traditional functionality, the Harvia Cilindro is perfect for sauna users who enjoy customizing their sauna sessions with varying steam intensity, all while adding a touch of elegance to their sauna space.
HUUM HIVE CLIFF

Available in 6 kW, 9 kW, or 10.5 kW Models
Want a lot of thermal mass but still have a quicker heat-up time? That’s exactly what the HUUM CLIFF delivers. Its tall, open column exposes every stone directly to the elements, so the 165 lb rock load races to temperature faster than bulkier heaters with even more stone. The result is a rich, wood-fired feel powered by clean, reliable electricity—with far less waiting around before you step inside. Sleek, sculptural, and space-saving, the CLIFF turns your sauna wall into an eye-catching accent while surrounding you in deep, lingering warmth.

HUUM HIVE MINI

Available in 6 kW, 9 kW, or 10.5 kW Models
These are one of our best sellers! The HUUM line of products offers a more traditional sauna experience by limiting metal and increasing total rock surface area. This provides a closer wood-fired experience with the reliability of electricity. Many of our customers prefer the design of the HUUM as it is an accent piece against the backdrop of your high-quality wood sauna.
Pros | Cons |
---|---|
|
|
HUUM DROP

Available in 6 kW and 9 kW Models
Very similar to the HUUM Hive and HUUM Hive Mini. The HUUM Drop offers a round design that softens and livens up the angular interior of a classic sauna, giving it a touch of elegance. But DROP isn’t only about the looks. This compact wall-mounted heater can actually fit up to 55 kg of stones, exceeding most wood-burning stoves and guaranteeing long-lasting steam.
