Harvia The Wall SW60: a slim black 6 kW wall heater for saunas up to 282 cubic feet
The Harvia The Wall SW60 is the black version of Harvia’s slimmest wall heater, a 6 kW electric sauna heater for rooms from 141 to 282 cubic feet. Its matte black steel case has a glossy top and measures 16.9 inches wide, 10 inches deep, and 27.6 inches tall. It weighs 31.5 pounds empty and sits flat against the wall or can be built into the bench front. You can install it with the open side facing left or right, and a built-in guard keeps skin away from the stones. Choose black or stainless steel on the page.
You get the heater and its manual. It runs on a 240 volt circuit with no separate control needed. The illuminated dial on the heater handles on, off, time, and temperature, and you can preset it to start up to 8 hours ahead. Sauna stones are sold separately, so add the 1 box it needs on the page. A bucket and ladle set is optional. Need more heat? See the Harvia The Wall SW80 black sauna heater. The Harvia The Wall SW60 ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

What size sauna room is this heater rated for?

Does The Wall SW60 have built-in controls?

Are sauna stones included with the heater?
The carton contains the sauna heater and its installation and operation manual, and stones are required before first use – select the required stone box in the add-on options when you order on this page. Harvia also recommends adding an extra box of stones so you can choose the best ones for fit, form, and function.
How is it mounted, and can it fit into my sauna layout?
It wall-mounts on the included mounting rack, which sets the minimum safety distance from the floor, and you can choose left- or right-handed installation. It can even be integrated into the sauna bench for a seamless look. You can browse more of this wall-mounted design in Harvia’s The Wall series.
