Common questions

What size sauna is the Harvia KIP45W for?
The KIP45W is rated for rooms of 100 to 211 cu ft. Glass, tile or uninsulated walls add effective volume, so size up if your room has them.
Do I need an electrician?
Yes. The KIP45W (JH45WU1UL) is hardwired for 240V single-phase power and must be installed by a licensed electrician following the Harvia manual for breaker and wire sizing.
What else do I need to buy?
A Harvia control such as the Xenio CX170 matched to 240V single-phase power, and one 44 lb (20 kg) box of Harvia AC3000 stones.
What is the difference between KIP B and KIP W models?
KIP B models have time and temperature switches built into the heater. KIP W models run from a separate wall control, such as the Harvia Xenio, which can be mounted inside or outside the sauna.
