The Linear 16 sauna stove wood burner is source of glowing heat for smaller saunas. Through the warm glow of the cast-iron glass door, with optional door direction, the fire enhances the sauna atmosphere. The fire chamber and combustion air channels of Harvia wood burning heaters are designed so that sauna warms quickly and the burning is cleaner.
A sauna stove wood burner is a traditional and highly valued option for heating saunas, especially in rural or off-grid settings where electricity may not be readily available. These stoves are powered by burning wood, which heats a chamber filled with stones. As the wood burns, it generates a steady and intense heat, which is absorbed by the stones and gradually released into the sauna space. This method not only creates a natural and authentic sauna experience but also fills the room with the pleasant aroma of burning wood, enhancing the overall atmosphere. The steam, or “löyly,” produced when water is poured over the hot stones, is more intense in wood-fired saunas, making the heat feel deeper and more penetrating.
Wood sauna stoves are also cherished for their ability to provide a consistent and controllable heat. The user can adjust the temperature by regulating the amount of wood added to the stove and by controlling the airflow through the damper. However, wood sauna stoves require more maintenance and care compared to electric heaters. The stove needs to be regularly cleaned of ash and soot, and the chimney must be inspected and cleaned to prevent creosote buildup, which could lead to chimney fires. Despite the extra effort, many sauna enthusiasts prefer wood stoves for their efficiency, the quality of heat they produce, and the traditional sauna experience they offer.
