Shop sauna heatersThe hole is the hard part
Embedding a heater into a bench or platform sounds simple until you work out the clearance. Timber near a hot shell needs distance, and without a flange the cut-out has to be generous enough to keep the wood safe, which leaves a wide dark gap around the heater and undoes the look you were chasing. The HPC7 solves the thermal problem so the geometric one goes away: it protects against the heat radiation, so the embedding hole can sit close to the heater.
What it is
A stainless steel embedding flange, 2.2 pounds, made specifically for the 10.5 kW Harvia Cilindro. It is not adjustable and it is not universal, so the kW rating matters.
Specifications
- Model: HPC7
- Construction: stainless steel
- Compatibility: Cilindro 10.5 kW
- Weight: 2.2 lb
Warranty
Limited 2 year warranty in consumer use, limited 1 year in commercial use. Installation manual included.
Plan it at framing
An embedded heater changes the bench structure, the electrical route and the way the room is cleaned, and none of those are things to discover after the cladding is on. If you are considering it, get the installation manual in front of whoever is building the benches before they cut anything.
Is it worth it
Purely visually, yes, and it is one of the few upgrades that costs two hundred dollars rather than two thousand. Practically, an embedded heater is harder to service and harder to restack stones around. We think it is worth it in a room somebody designed. We would skip it in a room somebody has to maintain in a hurry.
