HUUM STEEL 6kW Electric Sauna Heater

Overview

The HUUM STEEL 6 electric sauna heater combines a slim stainless-steel body with an integrated air tunnel and stone-forward design. The 6 kW US configuration is sized for rooms of approximately 177–318 cu. ft. (5–9 m³). Its floor-standing format and model-specific clearances make advance room planning essential.

Features

• 6 kW output: Sized for the manufacturer’s published 177–318 cu. ft. room-volume range.
• Integrated air tunnel: HUUM’s design circulates air through the heater to support heat-up and airflow.
• 150 kg (330 lb) capacity: A substantial stone basket supports heat storage and traditional water-on-stone steam; stones are sold separately.
• Slender profile: A narrow footprint helps retain usable sauna space.
• Stainless-steel construction: Brushed finish per the BathingBrands dealer sheet.
• floor-standing configuration: Install the full-size STEEL on its feet; mount STEEL Mini to the wall as specified.
• HUUM UKU compatible: A compatible control system is required and sold separately.
• US electrical setup: HUUM specifies 240 V, 2~ supply, a 30 A breaker and minimum 10 AWG cable.
• Reduced clearances: HUUM lists compact clearances for STEEL; use the exact diagram for this model and room configuration.
• Model-specific sizing: Room surfaces and ventilation affect heater selection and placement; consult the current manual.

Specifications

What's Included

The heater set includes the HUUM STEEL 6 electric heater and the manufacturer-specified mounting/support components and installation/operation instructions. Confirm the exact hardware and air-tunnel components for the model and production date.

Required separately: Compatible HUUM UKU control system, sauna stones, and heat-resistant power cable.

Installation

• Confirm measured room volume, including any required allowance for uninsulated tile, stone or glass surfaces, falls within 177–318 cu. ft.
• Electrical work must be performed by a licensed electrician. Verify the dedicated 240 V, 2~ supply, 30 A breaker, minimum 10 AWG wiring, grounding and local code.
• Install the floor-standing heater using the supplied parts, on a support appropriate for its loaded weight and in accordance with HUUM’s current manual.
• Mount the compatible control and temperature sensor in their specified locations.
• Maintain the complete model-specific safety distances; keep ventilation and the heater’s air tunnel unobstructed.
• Load the stones as directed to protect the heating elements and preserve airflow. Do not operate the heater without stones.

Operation and Usage

Operate the heater through a compatible HUUM UKU control after electrical installation and stone loading are complete. Preheat with the control. For traditional steam, add clean water sparingly to the stones only, following HUUM’s instructions.

• Keep towels, clothing, oils and other combustible materials away from the heater.
• Supervise children and keep users clear of hot surfaces and the required safety zone.
• Switch off and arrange inspection if the heater, wiring or controller is damaged or malfunctions.
• Sauna bathing involves heat exposure and dehydration risk. Avoid alcohol, hydrate appropriately and leave if you feel unwell. Consult a healthcare professional if a condition or medication may affect heat tolerance.
