Description
The Huum HIVE Heat 12 is a compact 12kW wood-burning sauna stove for smaller saunas up to about 459 cu ft. It loads from inside the sauna and pairs a cast iron furnace door with a round stone cage. This package includes sauna stones.
Burn
Fresh air is channeled into the fire from above, which the supplier says gives a stronger flame and a more complete burn. The stove complies with the German BImSchV II standard for wood-burning stoves, per the supplier.
Build
The cast iron furnace door is treated with natural oils rather than chemical coatings and is easy to maintain. The stove is made in Estonia.
