Product Highlights
Traditional Wood-Fired Heat
Designed for customers who prefer the look, feel, and ritual of a wood-burning sauna heater. It supports an authentic sauna environment with steady radiant heat and generous stone coverage.
High Stone Capacity
The large stone chamber holds up to 440 lbs of stones for a broad heat surface. This design helps produce a softer and more enveloping steam experience when water is poured over the stones.
Two-Room Heating Design
The SL configuration is designed so the fire can be fed from an adjoining room. This can support cleaner sauna room use and added convenience, depending on the installation layout.
Handcrafted Finnish Build
Made by Harvia’s master blacksmiths in Finland, the stove features a patinated steel frame and a robust fire chamber structure. The design balances visual presence with practical durability.
Flexible Venting Options
Top and rear flue connection locations allow for more adaptable installation planning. A soot opening also supports ongoing maintenance access.
Firelight Viewing Door
A cast-iron framed glass door provides a view of the fire during operation. This adds warmth and visual character to the surrounding sauna setting.
