Forget the wait and enjoy the health benefits of your sauna right away. Simply open the heater's door, add water to the hot stones, and indulge in the versatile steam of the sauna heater.
The contemporary design of this sauna heater conceals a heat-insulated stone compartment that maintains the stones' temperature. Its sleek appearance and cool exterior ensure safety for all sauna users. When the sauna is not in use, the Forte heater automatically enters energy-saving mode, and the stored heat can be easily released by pouring water onto the stones. With this always-ready heater, going to the sauna has never been more effortless. Countless satisfied users have attested that it is most enjoyable to have the option of going to the sauna whenever desired, without any additional waiting time.
This sauna heater comes equipped with precise control options, giving you the ability to adjust the steam to your preferred level. The digital Xafir control, exclusive to Forte, allows you to manage the heater's functions and optimize energy usage while controlling the steam. The heat and moisture-resistant control panel, easily installed inside the sauna, makes operation a breeze. With the option to set the stone space temperature to energy-saving mode (Lo) or sauna mode (Hi), this heater ensures both efficiency and comfort. Plus, the safety feature automatically detects if the heater's door has been left open and shuts off for added peace of mind. Forte's advanced technology guarantees a safe and enjoyable sauna experience every time.
The Forte sauna heater is ideal for family saunas, especially in detached houses. It features a well-insulated shell that efficiently maintains the warmth of the stone space at a low sauna temperature. In addition, it functions as a radiator and provides essential heat for your sauna, making it always ready for use while ensuring safety.
