The Celsium Sauna Experience Buying Guide

How It Works

The Celsium range represents the pinnacle of Nordic-inspired outdoor wellness. Because each sauna is a bespoke timber structure tailored to your specifications, we follow a meticulous process to ensure your installation is seamless and transparent. Below is the step-by-step journey from your initial order to your first session.

1. Consultation, Place Your Order & Site Assessment Your journey begins with selecting the right Celsium model — here, the spacious Else Grand, with or without the front porch. We invite you to schedule a personalised consultation with our specialist team to discuss your project in detail.

• Proactive Logistics: Before your sauna enters production, we consult our "last-mile" delivery team to verify property access and site details, clearing logistical hurdles in advance.
• Bespoke Confirmation: Once we're confident the site is accessible and the specification is correct, your order is officially logged.

2. Handcrafted Production Celsium saunas are handcrafted to order, not mass-produced.

• The Timeline: Due to the bespoke nature and high level of customisation, the production lead time is approximately 6 weeks.
• Total Lead Time: With an additional ~2 weeks for secure transit and delivery coordination, the total journey from order to doorstep is approximately 8 weeks.

3. Delivery & Professional Installation Services

• Complimentary Delivery: Delivery to your kerbside is free of charge across UK Mainland.
• Professional Assembly: For a build to factory standards, request our expert installation service at the point of purchase. The Else Grand is also supplied as a flat-pack kit for capable self-assembly.

4. Preparation Checklist (Pre-Delivery)

• The Foundation: Provide a solid, level base engineered to support the structure plus the "live load" of users. Your base (reinforced concrete, slab or structurally rated alternative) must be rated comfortably above the unit's ~750 kg weight plus the live load of occupants, and be perfectly level.
• Electrical Requirements: Electrical installation is the customer's responsibility. The heater is hard-wired — consult a qualified electrician before ordering. We provide the specific wiring and heater manuals in advance so they can prepare the correct cabling and RCD protection for your chosen heater.

5. Delivery & Inspection

• Palletised Arrival: Your sauna arrives securely palletised and weather-wrapped to protect the timber.
• Integrated Assistance: Kerbside delivery is standard; where access permits, our crew gets the pallet as close to position as possible and assists in carrying the individual components to your installation site.
• The 24-Hour Rule: Once unpacked, check all components carefully. To maintain warranty eligibility, any missing or damaged items must be reported within 24 hours.

6. Installation Pathways

• Option A — Internal Installation Team: We deploy qualified carpenters to assemble on-site, with most builds completed in one working day. The fee covers the build; travel is free within Mainland UK (England). Channel Islands, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and the Isle of Wight are quoted separately.
• Option B — Independent Carpenter / Self-Assembly: Supplied as a flat-pack kit; if you don't use our team, we strongly recommend a qualified carpenter handles assembly to factory specification.

7. Warranty Validation & Handover

• Essential Wood Treatment: Immediately apply a breathable wood oil to the interior and exterior to protect the timber from moisture and UV damage while letting it "breathe" through heat cycles.
• Mechanical & System Check: Verify all doors, windows and ventilation slats function smoothly.
• Test Cycle: Once the electrician has certified the connection, run a full heater and LED test cycle before your first session.

8. Enjoy Your Sauna & Aftercare

• Aftercare: Periodically inspect the timber finish and electrical components, and re-apply breathable oil as needed for your local climate.
• Ongoing Support: As your dedicated reseller, we're here for the long haul — contact us anytime for replacement parts, seasonal maintenance advice or technical assistance.
  

Your Heater, Chosen at Order

The Else Grand is made to order, and the sauna heater is selected as part of your configuration. As a spacious 6-person cabin, the Else Grand is paired with heaters sized for its larger volume — you choose electric, wood-burning or a hybrid infrared set-up. The options below are the heaters Celsium currently offers for the Else Grand; recommended room volumes and short character notes are given to help you choose, and full electrical requirements are in the Electrical Supply - IMPORTANT tab.

Electric Heaters (each wired as a dedicated three-phase 400 V supply)

• Harvia Spirit XW — 9 kW (with Wi-Fi) · recommended room volume approx. 8–14 m³. Compact wall-mounted stainless-steel heater with Wi-Fi control for efficient, everyday electric heat.
• Harvia Cilindro (Steel) — 10.8 kW · recommended room volume approx. 9–18 m³. Cylindrical stainless-steel heater with a tall, generous stone column for soft, enveloping steam.
• Harvia Legend (Black LCD, Wi-Fi) — 10.8 kW · recommended room volume approx. 9–18 m³. Premium black pillar heater with a large stone mass and Wi-Fi control for a powerful, traditional heat.
• HUUM Drop — 9 kW (Wi-Fi available) · recommended room volume approx. 8–13 m³. Sculptural teardrop design with a generous visible stone volume for soft, refined steam. (HUUM's rated output for this model is 8.5 kW.)
• HUUM Hive Mini — 10.5 kW (Wi-Fi available) · recommended room volume approx. 10–16 m³. Minimalist basket design with a large visible stone volume and optional Wi-Fi control.
• HUUM Core Black — 10.5 kW (Wi-Fi available) · recommended room volume approx. 10–16 m³. Clean cylindrical heater in black with a substantial stone volume for long-lasting steam.
• Tulikivi Halla E — 9 kW (Wi-Fi available) · recommended room volume approx. 8–13 m³. Slim Finnish wall heater with small safety clearances and a large stone space for mild, humid steam.
• Saunum Experience Black — 9 kW (Wi-Fi available) · recommended room volume approx. 7–10 m³. A sauna heater and patented air-mixing climate device in one, for soft, evenly distributed steam.

Wood-Burning Heaters (no electrical connection to the heater)

• Harvia Legend 150 — 16 kW (internal or external loading) · recommended room volume approx. 6–13 m³. Traditional wood-fired stove for authentic löyly and off-grid heat; choose internal loading (feed from inside the sauna) or external loading (feed from outside the cabin).
• HUUM Wood — 13 kW · recommended room volume approx. 6–13 m³. Round wood-burning stove with a large stone mass for mild, long-lasting steam and a live-fire atmosphere.
• HUUM Flow Mini — 8.5 kW (internal or external loading) · recommended room volume approx. 6–14 m³. Highly efficient, low-emission wood stove with a large glass door; feed from inside or outside the cabin.

Wood-burning heaters need no electrical supply to the heater — a flue/chimney and building-control sign-off apply instead.

Hybrid Infrared (Optional)

• Harvia Infrared Equipment — 2 × 500 W + control unit · a low-temperature radiant add-on that turns the Else Grand into a hybrid sauna, giving gentler, quicker-to-warm infrared sessions alongside traditional convection heat. The infrared radiators run on a 230 V supply.

Heater documentation

Official manufacturer datasheets and installation manuals carry the exact electrical, fuse, cable and clearance figures for each model — always work from the document for the heater you configure:

• Harvia Spirit SP90E (9 kW)
• Harvia Cilindro PC110E (10.8 kW)
• Harvia Legend family (Electric + wood)
• HUUM Drop
• HUUM Hive / Hive Mini
• HUUM Core
• Saunum Experience
• Harvia Legend 150 (wood, 16 kW)
• HUUM Wood
• HUUM Flow / Flow Mini
• Harvia Infrared

The Supply You Need Depends on Your Chosen Heater

There is no single electrical requirement for the Else Grand — it depends entirely on the heater you configure. Every electric heater offered for the Else Grand is a higher-output unit (9–10.8 kW), and heaters at this rating — together with all HUUM electric heaters — are wired as a dedicated three-phase 400 V (3N~) hard-wired supply. A wood-burning Else Grand needs no electrical supply to the heater at all (only a flue and building-control sign-off). The optional hybrid infrared radiators run on a 230 V supply.

Indicative supply by heater (Else Grand options)

Figures are quoted from the manufacturers' official datasheets and installation manuals for each model, and are indicative. The exact fuse, cable, RCD/earth-leakage and clearance requirements for your unit are given in the chosen heater's own manual (see Heater Information) — always follow that document. Celsium does not publish a single supply spec for the Else Grand.

How to Read the Supply

As a rough guide, current (amps) = power (watts) ÷ voltage (volts). A 10.8 kW heater on a single 230 V line would draw roughly 47 A (10,800 ÷ 230) — impractical for a domestic radial — which is why the Else Grand's 9–10.8 kW heaters run on a three-phase 400 V supply, spreading the load across three lines to about 13–16 A per phase (hence the 3 × 16 A fuse). Lower-output heaters can sometimes run single-phase, but every electric heater offered for the Else Grand is a higher-output, three-phase unit.

Installation Requirements (customer's responsibility)

• All electrical work must be carried out by a qualified electrician and certified to BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations).
• The heater must be on its own dedicated radial circuit, hard-wired (not a plug-and-socket connection).
• Provide appropriate RCD/RCBO protection and a local isolator switch at the heater, as specified in the heater manual.
• Use heat-resistant cable as specified by the manufacturer — HUUM and Saunum require heat-resistant rubber cable (e.g. SIHF / H07RN-F); PVC is not permitted.
• Electrical supply provision and installation are the customer's responsibility; we provide the relevant heater manuals in advance so your electrician can prepare the correct cabling and protection.

Important: The figures above are a planning guide only. The definitive requirement is the chosen heater manufacturer's manual. Confirm the exact supply with your electrician — and with Celsium for your specific configuration — before starting any groundwork or wiring.
