Overview
Harvia KIP80B PKG 8 kW Sauna Heater Package – Built-In Controls, Stainless Steel
The Harvia KIP 8 kW is the larger-output option in this KIP group, intended for traditional sauna rooms from approximately 250 to 425 cubic feet.
When does 8 kW make sense?
The 8 kW KIP is a good place to start when your adjusted room volume is too large for the 6 kW model. Calculate interior width × depth × height, then account for glass, tile, stone, masonry, and other uninsulated surfaces that increase heat demand.
Recommended room volume: 250–425 cu. ft.
What you get
- 8 kW electric output: suited to larger residential sauna rooms within Harvia’s specified range.
- Built-in timer and thermostat: straightforward control directly from the heater.
- Wall-mounted design: keeps the heater footprint compact compared with many floor-standing alternatives.
- Traditional stone basket: supports the familiar hot-air sauna experience and water on approved stones when used according to the manual.
Installation matters
This heater requires hardwired electrical installation. A qualified electrician should verify the required circuit, conductor size, disconnects, clearances, and local electrical requirements. Ventilation and heater clearances must follow the current Harvia installation manual.
If your adjusted room volume falls close to the 6 kW / 8 kW crossover, send Martin Sauna the room dimensions before ordering. We can help you check the sizing logic rather than guessing from the number of seats.
