Have questions about our sauna heaters?
The Cilindro heater is one of the most impressive sauna heaters ever built. The aesthetics are second only to the performance. 200lbs of genuine Finnish sauna stones are encased within a polished stainless steel structure that make the Cilindro a work of art. The more stones, the more steam, and the Cilindro excels in both. Sprinkle a small amount of water over the top of the stones to generate an exhilarating boost in humidity or throw a ladle full of water at the side of the tower of stones to deliver a major burst of steam that engulfs the entire sauna room. The Cilindro is built with stainless steel, ensuring durability, longevity, and beauty for years to come.
Shop Plunge offers this heater in 6kw and 9kw sizes. This product is designed for residential use. Made in Finland.
Please note, the sauna stones are included with this heater are the classic (jagged) rocks. You must select the upgrade option if you prefer rounded stones.
Electrical Requirements
All electrical wiring must be performed by a qualified and licensed electrician with complete knowledge of local codes and regulations.
The sauna heater will require 220v and must be hard-wired to the electrical box. If your sauna comes with a 6kw heater, it will require a 30-amp breaker and 10/2 wire, unless it is positioned more than 30 feet from the breaker in which case it will require 8/2 wire. If your sauna comes with an 9kw heater, it will require a 45-amp breaker and 8/2 wire.
Your electrician will drill a hole in the wall of the sauna below the heater for the conduit. All of the wiring will come into the sauna through this hole. In a barrel sauna, it can also come up through the floor below the heater.
Use copper wire with 90C insulation. Do not use aluminum wire to make the connection. Consult with an electrician so you can determine the requirements for your particular situation. All wiring must conform to all national, state, and local codes and regulations.
Because our saunas run on 220v of electricity and draw less than 45 amps of power they are quite energy efficient and should not be a significant drain on your electricity bill.
