FAQ
What size sauna is the HIVE Wood 13 made for?
It is designed for sauna rooms from 212 to 459 cubic feet. If your room is bigger, the HIVE Wood series includes larger and higher-output models, so match your measured room volume to the right stove before ordering.
Does it need a chimney?
Yes – the description states HUUM wood-fired stoves require a chimney connection for operation. Thru-ceiling, thru-wall, and barrel-sauna chimney kits are offered in the Operating Accessories add-on on this page, so you can order the complete venting setup along with the stove.
How many stones does it take?
It has a large 199-pound stone capacity, listed as six 33-pound boxes of HUUM Stones 24 small (5-10 cm) stones. They ship separately from the stove but are available in the Required Stones add-on on this page, so add them to the same order.
What is the flame tamer?
The description notes a robust 1/5-inch-thick stainless steel flame tamer built into the stove for long-lasting strength and durability. Together with the stainless steel furnace door and body, it is part of why this stove carries a limited 5-year warranty.
Can it also heat water for the sauna?
The stove itself does not include a water heater, but this page offers the HUUM WaterEx water and heat exchanger made for these wood stoves as an Operating Accessories add-on, which is the supported way to add hot water capability to your setup.
How is the wood-burning experience different from electric?
The description calls it an authentic wood-burning sauna experience producing a soft, high heat, with a large number of exposed stones for long-lasting heat and better steam capability. You regulate the heat by how you fire it rather than with a control panel.
How does it ship?
By freight on a wooden pallet with delivery by special appointment – the driver lowers it curbside at ground level. The stove itself weighs 104 pounds. The store contacts you before shipping to review any details that could affect or complicate your delivery.
