HUUM Hive 15: a 15 kW round heater for saunas from 530 to 1,060 cubic feet
The HUUM Hive 15 is a floor standing electric sauna heater made in Estonia for large home saunas, gyms, and spas, with 15 kW of power for rooms from 530 to 1,060 cubic feet. Its round stainless steel body sits on adjustable legs and measures 22 inches across and 29.5 inches tall. It weighs 46 pounds empty and holds 552 pounds of stones directly against the heating elements, giving a large room soft, even heat and plenty of steam.
The box holds the heater, adjustable legs, an air tunnel insert, and the manual. The insert speeds heating by about a quarter and reduces the stone load to about 463 pounds when fitted. It needs a HUUM UKU control and the UKU extension box to run, and you add both on the page. Choose the Wi-Fi version and you can start the sauna from your phone. Sauna stones are sold separately, so add the 16 boxes it needs on the page. A safety rail, an embedding flange, a reflector panel, and a bucket and ladle set are optional. Want the control, extension box, and stones bundled? See the HUUM Hive 15 heater package. The HUUM Hive 15 ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.
FAQ
How big a sauna can the HIVE 15 heat?
Rooms from 530 to 1,060 cubic feet, per the features and specification tabs. The description targets bigger saunas – health clubs, spas, and gyms – and it slots between the 12kW and 18kW models in the electric sauna heater lineup for large rooms.
Can I install it in a commercial facility?
Yes. The features tab lists it as suitable for commercial use, SGS Listed, with stainless steel construction and industrial-quality elements. Warranty coverage is a limited 5 years excluding the heating elements, which is standard across the brand’s floor-standing heaters.
Does it need more than a standard control?
It works with UKU controls and the UKU extension box, both flagged in the features tab. On this page the control lives under Sauna Heater Controls and the extension box under Sauna Control Contactor, so the full control chain can go in one order.
How many pounds of stones does it use?
552 pounds at full load, or roughly 463 pounds with the included Air Tunnel installed. Get them through the Required Stones add-on on this page, which lists the HUUM Stones 24 small (5-10 cm) boxes this heater is designed around.
What is the included Air Tunnel?
A stainless-steel housing that sits in the center of the heater. The includes tab credits it with 25 percent faster heating, better air circulation, and longer heating element life, at the cost of an estimated two boxes of stone capacity.
What are the electrical specs?
62.5 amps at 240V single-phase, with the breaker column showing 50 + 50 and wire size 8 + 8 AWG – in practice, two dedicated circuits sized by a licensed electrician. Follow the installation manual and local electrical code; this is not a DIY hookup.
What about delivery?
It ships LTL freight on a wooden pallet – listed shipping weight with stones is nearly 600 pounds – with a special delivery appointment and curbside drop at ground level. Expect a call from the store beforehand to confirm the details of your delivery.
