The Harvia Sauna Experience Buying Guide
How It Works
The Harvia Urban range pairs a designer glass-front cabin with your choice of Harvia heater package. Below is the step-by-step journey from order to your first session.
1. Choose Your Cabin & Heater Package Select the Urban Medium Black and decide between cabin-only or a Harvia heater package (6 kW Spirit, 7 kW Virta, or 7 kW Virta Combi steam — each with stones and a Fenix Wi-Fi control). Not sure which? Tell us your room size and electrical supply and we'll recommend the right match. Complete your purchase and you'll receive an order confirmation.
2. Order Processing & Dispatch Your order is prepared and the cabin is supplied with assembly materials and instructions. Lead times are confirmed at order (some Harvia items ship from Finland).
3. Delivery to Your Address Free kerbside delivery across the UK mainland. The boxes are large and heavy, so please ensure someone is available to receive them; you'll typically be contacted to arrange a convenient day.
4. Receipt & Inspection Inspect all packaging on arrival and check every component against the manual. Report anything missing or damaged straight away, and keep all packaging until the sauna is fully assembled and working.
5. Assembly The Urban Medium is designed for straightforward assembly — two people and basic tools are recommended, and the adjustable legs make levelling simple. Prefer not to build it yourself? We can arrange professional installation at additional cost, quoted to your location.
6. Electrical Connection (Heater) A qualified electrician must connect your Harvia heater to a suitable hard-wired electrical supply sized to the heater's output (7 kW packages require a 32 A supply), in full compliance with UK wiring regulations (BS 7671). This is essential for safety and to maintain warranty cover.
7. Commissioning & First Use Add the sauna stones, pair the Fenix control and MyHarvia2 app (if fitted), run a first heat cycle, then set your temperature and lighting for your first authentic Finnish sauna.
8. Aftercare Keep the cabin ventilated, clean the timber as advised, and periodically check the heater, controls and lighting. Contact us anytime for stones, accessories or support.
