Harvia Virta 9kW 240V Electric Sauna Heater | HL90E
Harvia Virta 9kW Electric Sauna Heater | HL90E
The Virta heater is a powerful, stylish, and easy-to-use floor-standing electric sauna heater designed for easy maintenance. It provides even and soft heat, creating a balanced and relaxing sauna experience. Encased in sleek stainless steel, it can hold up to 100-150 lbs of genuine Finnish sauna stones, making it both functional and a beautiful centerpiece in your sauna. A ladle of water sprinkled over the stones generates exhilarating steam. The heating elements are separated from the stones, resulting in a long lifespan. If you need to replace a heating element, you can quickly and easily pull out the entire heating element module. The heater pairs with a digital controller that can be mounted outside of the sauna and preset up to 12 hours in advance. The clear touch digital control panel is easily installed and allows you to set your desired temperature.
The Virta heater comes in six sizes to heat any sauna: 6kW, 8kW, 9kW, 10.5kW, 16kW, and 20kW.
