Harvia KIP

Traditional wall-mounted heater. Stainless steel shell, protective stone guard, dual-wall construction that keeps the exterior cool to the touch. Built-in dial controls with 8-hour delay timer and 60-minute auto-shutoff. KIP has been in Harvia's range since the 1980s.

The Harvia KIP is the wall-mounted electric sauna heater Harvia has been producing since the 1980s. Harvia calls it one of its "most trusted and loved workhorses," and it is offered in nearly every Almost Heaven barrel sauna kit. The value proposition has not changed in four decades: stainless steel construction, a generous stone cavity for real löyly, dual-wall housing so the outside stays safe to touch, UL certification for the US market, and a simple two-dial control interface (temperature + 8-hour delay timer with 60-minute auto-shutoff). Available in 4.5, 6, and 8 kW configurations on 240VAC single-phase service, with both built-in dial models (JH-series, suffix B or W) and an external-controller version for use with a Harvia Xenio control panel. Almost Heaven Saunas, Harvia's US brand, lists KIP as its default wall-mounted heater and sells it with a Limited Lifetime Warranty on manufacturing defects.
