Narvi 30/50: a wood burning sauna stove for big rooms up to 2,472 cubic feet
The Narvi 30/50 is a floor standing wood burning sauna stove for large saunas. It comes in two sizes. The Narvi 30 puts out 24 kW and heats rooms from 706 to 1,236 cubic feet. The Narvi 50 puts out 50 kW and heats rooms from 1,589 to 2,472 cubic feet, enough for a club or commercial sauna. The body is heavy steel painted black, with a wooden handle on the door. A glass door lets you watch the fire. Narvi designs and builds it in Finland.
Pick the size on the page. Wood burning means no wiring: you build a fire in the firebox and the stones on top hold the heat. Ladle water on the stones for steam. It burns logs up to 13 inches long. It comes with the stove and the manual. Sauna stones are sold separately, so add the boxes your size needs on the page. The bigger stove holds a lot more stone, so it needs more boxes. A chimney is not included, so pick the flue parts and the adapter to 6 inch US pipe on the page. The flue can leave from the top or the back. If the stove sits near a wood wall, add Narvi’s protective wall shield or the floor base on the page. Heating a family sized sauna instead? See the Narvi Kaamos 20 wood burning stove. The Narvi 30/50 ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.
FAQ
Which model do I need for a large sauna?
The Kilowatt selector offers the Narvi 30 at 24 kW for 706 to 1,236 cubic feet and the Narvi 50 at 50 kW for 1,589 to 2,472 cubic feet. The description pitches both at larger saunas where bigger groups relax; the 50 is the choice for commercial-scale rooms, the 30 for a big family sauna.
How big and heavy are they?
The Narvi 30 measures 21.06 by 26.4 by 37.4 inches and weighs 331 pounds; the Narvi 50 is 26.4 by 33.5 by 43.3 inches at 606 pounds. Add 143 or 220 pounds of stones respectively, which ship separately. Plan the floor and delivery path accordingly; with its stones in place the 50 comes to 826 pounds.
What clearances apply?
Both need an 87 inch ceiling. The 30 needs 59.9 inches front to back and 48.7 side to side; the 50 needs 92.6 and 65.8 inches. The manual says the clearance can be cut in half with a protective shield mounted with at least a 50 mm air gap, and the Safety selector offers Narvi’s protective wall and installation base.
Which stones does Narvi recommend?
The manual recommends olive dolerite stones of 10 to 15 cm, which is the 4 to 6 inch size on the page, washed before use, with flat stones upright and nothing stacked above the top surface. Choose the box count on the Required Stones selector for your kilowatt pick: 143 pounds for the 30, 220 pounds for the 50.
How much wood does it burn?
The manual tables an ignition load of about 8 kg for the Narvi 30, additions of about 5 kg and a 10 kg per hour maximum that must not be exceeded, using logs around 33 cm long and 0.5 kg each. That matches the 13 inch maximum log length on the Specifications tab. Empty the ash drawer and have the chimney swept yearly.
Is it listed for the USA, and what about the flue size?
The page shows a CE safety listing and a 2-year limited warranty; no UL or ETL mark is listed, so confirm with your inspector. The flue exits top or back and the Chimney selector offers the 4.5 inch Euro to 6 inch USA adapter. See our full range of wood burning sauna stoves.
