The amount of metal used in HUUM sauna heaters is very small – this ensures that the majority of the heat derives from the stones, and not from the metal. This maximizes the proportion of beneficial negative ions in the air, which is also high in the traditional wood-heated sauna.
This and the exceptionally large quantity of sauna rocks are the secret ingredients of the curative, gentle and long-lasting steam of our sauna heaters.
The massive stone amount of HUUM Hive requires it to be shipped on a wooden pallet. You will receive a tracking number as soon as your order has been shipped out. All our shipments are fully insured. HUUM products are shipped from Chicago. The pallet will be delivered to your curbside. Carrier will call you to set up the delivery of the pallet before delivery. Shipping is free. For white glow delivery or express shipping options, contact us.
HUUM Hive will require 240V/1PH electrical line. In case you want to wire with 208V, the power output will go down by 25%. You will need a 2 x 50 Amp circuit breaker and your electrician needs to use wire size 8+8 AWG. You can see the wiring diagram for the system here.
