The Forte AF450/ AF650/ AF100 sauna oven’s stone space is crafted of corrosion-resistant stainless-steel for long-lasting strength and durability and is engineered to power saunas between 178 - 283, 250 - 421, 355 - 527 cubic feet (CF). Digital waterproof control included!

Requires a minimum of 220bs of stones, sold separately.

The Forte is Harvia’s innovative version of the heat-storing electric heater, combining top-of-the-range heater technology with a sleek design. Just grab a towel, lift the Forte’s cover and climb onto the bench to enjoy humid and gentle steam. The Forte is equipped with a separate splash-Proof control panel. Forte’s new Properties provide family saunas with a sense of safety. The heater will turn off automatically if you forget to close the cover, and the control panel has a keypad lock.
