HUUM Sauna Rocks

HUUM Mini takes 528lbs of sauna rocks

* 462lbs needed with Air Tunnel

HUUM Hive

Product range of HUUM includes round sauna stones with a diameter of 5–10 cm / 2-4 in.

Olivine diabase sauna stones are enduring and their thermal capacity is high.

It’s recommended to use round sauna stones in HUUM sauna heaters. Round stones complement the design of the heaters and provide milder steam.

Why Use Our Rocks?

You can find your own stones but make sure you’re using the correct ones. 

This video can help explain.


HUUM HIVE Accessories

Safety Railing

HUUM Hive

The safety railing is an accessory for sauna heaters that increases safety in the steam room and helps to prevent accidental contact with the hot heater.

Arcs of the safety railing of the HIVE electric sauna heater are made of light wood, and the fasteners are made from stainless steel.

Eye-catching safety railing is mounted to the wall and the heater, and in addition to safety it also gives a stylish complement to the steam room.

Air Tunnel

huum sauna

Internal air tunnel for HIVE sauna heaters speeds up sauna heating by 25% and extends the life span of heating elements.

It is made of stainless steel and installed in the middle of the heater. When using the air tunnel, you need approximately 2 boxes fewer stones.

Reflecting Panel

sauna heater reflecting panel

Thanks to the HIVE reflector, the heater may be installed closer to the wall of the sauna.

It is made out of stainless steel. The reflectors can be connected to each other.

Embedding Flange

The embedding flange of the HIVE electric sauna heater is an accessory that enables one to achieve a beautiful final result when you wish to mount the HIVE sauna heater partly inside the sauna bench.

The embedding flange is made of stainless steel.

It covers the rugged wooden cut rims around the heater, and gives a refined and smooth final result.


HUUM app enables one to heat the sauna from a smartphone

HUUM HIVE Mini smart app

HUUM mobile app allows you to heat the sauna from your phone, wherever you are.

It doesn’t matter whether you are heading home from the office, finishing your evening jog or simply wish to have an unplanned rewarding sauna evening with your friends – just a few clicks on the smartphone, and a hot sauna awaits you!


Nature-inspired shapes

HUUM Hive

Round form of HIVE sauna heater imitates the hive of wild bees.

Stainless steel arcs surround the sauna stones with pure elegance and accentuate their natural beauty.

HIVE sauna heater represents the copious warmth of Nordic sauna that unites people. It is the heart and the focal point of the sauna.

It’s pure pleasure to share stories and the authentic sauna experience beside it!


Soft steam that resembles the traditional sauna

The amount of metal used in HUUM sauna heaters is very small – this ensures that majority of the heat derives from the stones, and not from the metal.

This maximizes the proportion of beneficial negative ions in the air, which is also high in the traditional wood-heated sauna.

This and the exceptionally large quantity of sauna rocks are the secret ingredients of the curative, gentle and long-lasting steam of our sauna heaters.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS

What Owners Are Saying

No reviews yet for this product.

★★★★★

A nightly ritual we never skip.

The cedar smell hits the moment you open the door. Heat is even, the door seals tight, and the build feels like it will last decades. Worth every dollar.

★★★★★

Genuinely flawless craftsmanship.

Pre-drilled holes lined up perfectly, hardware was stainless and substantial, and the heater was already wired. Two of us assembled it in a weekend.

★★★★★

Centerpiece of our backyard.

Guests at our rental mention the sauna in nearly every review. The barrel shape sheds snow beautifully and the interior light is so warm.

DAILY PRACTICE

The power of heat.

A consistent sauna practice compounds quietly into a measurable health investment. Regular heat exposure is linked to gains in cardiovascular conditioning, muscle recovery, and resilience to stress — benefits that build session after session.

30 min

A single sauna session can elevate heart rate to levels comparable to moderate exercise, supporting cardiovascular conditioning.

2–3×

Regular sauna use of two to three sessions per week is associated with measurable improvements in cardiovascular health in long-term studies.

20 min

Twenty minutes of heat helps relax muscles, accelerate recovery, and lower perceived stress after a long day.

ANATOMY OF THE SAUNA

Every surface, every fastener — chosen on purpose.

Grade A Knotty Western Red Cedar, an external wood-fired stove as standard (Harvia electric available as an upgrade), and marine-grade stainless steel hardware. Each component is selected for how it behaves under heat and steam, then handcrafted and fully assembled in Northern Minnesota.

OUR WORK

Real projects.

From private gardens to commercial recovery suites, every Cedar Sense build is shaped to its setting. A look at saunas we’ve delivered for owners across North America.

Frequently Asked Questions

Cedar Sense helps you design and build the sauna setup that actually fits your space, budget, and lifestyle. Here are answers to the questions we get asked the most.

What types of saunas does Cedar Sense offer?

We offer outdoor barrel saunas, indoor saunas, and custom-built sauna rooms, as well as complimentary amenities like cold plunges, outdoor showers, wood-fired hot tubs, and cedar outdoor furniture. Our goal is to help you create a complete fire-and-ice experience at home or at your cabin.

Yes. We created a FREE Custom Sauna Build Guide and a simple design flow to help you plan location, layout, bench height, heating system, and ventilation before you start building.

Yes. We ship saunas, cold plunges, outdoor showers, and most cedar products across the continental United States. Shipping options and costs depend on the product and your location, which you’ll see at checkout or by requesting a quote.

For many areas in the upper Midwest, we can either provide installation/assembly options or connect you with trusted partners. In other regions, most of our saunas arrive as kits designed for a handy homeowner or local contractor. Contact us to discuss installation options in your area.

Wood-fired stoves give you a traditional, off-grid feel with a softer, “campfire” style heat and crackling ambiance. Electric stoves are cleaner, easier to control, and often available with Wi-Fi and timers. Your ideal choice usually comes down to power availability, local codes, and the sauna experience you prefer.

Lead times vary by model and season, but most saunas ship within a few weeks to a couple of months. Custom builds and special configurations may take a bit longer. We’ll provide an estimated timeline before you finalize your order.

Absolutely. We carry sauna buckets and ladles, thermometers, sand timers, essential oils, sauna sprays, flooring, clocks, and more. We also offer cold tubs, outdoor showers, and cedar furniture that pair perfectly with your sauna setup so you can create a complete backyard retreat.

Yes. The guide is 100% free. You’ll just enter your name and email so we can send you the PDF and follow up with helpful tips about planning your build. No obligation and no pressure to purchase.
