HUUM DROP 9
Inspired by the simplicity of a water droplet, the HUUM Drop 9 electric sauna heater combines elegant design with powerful performance. This award-winning, wall-mounted 9 kW heater is built for sauna rooms between 283 and 460 cubic feet, offering efficient heating in a compact form. With a 121 lb stone capacity, it provides steady, gentle heat that recreates the soothing, traditional sauna atmosphere in your home.
Nature-Inspired Design Excellence
The HUUM Drop sauna heater embodies the elegant simplicity of a single water droplet. The rounded, organic form serves both aesthetic and functional purposes. In the typically angular interior of a classic sauna, the Drop's flowing curves create a striking visual contrast that adds a touch of sophistication and warmth.
The wall-mounted design maximizes floor space while making the heater a sculptural focal point that elevates your entire sauna environment.
This commitment to exceptional design hasn't gone unnoticed. The HUUM Drop series sauna heater is a winner of the prestigious Red Dot product design award in Europe, one of the most respected honors in industrial design. This recognition validates what sauna enthusiasts already know: the Drop is more than just a functional heater — it’s a masterfully designed creation that blends artistic elegance with precise engineering.
Exceptional Stone Capacity
What truly sets the HUUM Drop 9kW apart from other compact heaters is its impressive 121-pound capacity for sauna rocks. To put this in perspective, this HUUM sauna heater 9kW model actually holds more stones than most traditional wood-burning stoves, despite its sleek, space-saving profile. This generous stone capacity transforms your sauna experience.
More sauna rocks mean better heat retention and distribution throughout your session. When you ladle water onto the stones, that substantial thermal mass creates rich, long-lasting steam that envelops you in gentle, penetrating heat.
The HUUM Drop heater allows you to pour water more frequently and generously, giving you control over the intensity of your bathing experience. Whether you prefer a drier heat or enjoy that burst of steam from a proper sauna steam throw, the Drop 9 delivers.
Precision Craftsmanship from Estonia
Every HUUM Drop is made from high-quality stainless steel in Estonia, a country with deep roots in authentic sauna culture. Estonian craftspeople bring centuries of traditional sauna knowledge together with modern manufacturing precision. This European heritage ensures that your HUUM electric sauna heater meets rigorous SGS standards for safety, durability, and performance.
When you invest in a Drop, you're getting a heater that's built to provide thousands of satisfying sauna sessions for years to come.
Smart Control for Modern Living
The HUUM Drop 9kW Wi-Fi capability brings your sauna into the 21st century. As a sauna heater with Wi-Fi control, the Drop 9 pairs seamlessly with the HUUM app, transforming how you interact with your sauna. Imagine finishing work and preheating your sauna from your phone so that it's perfectly warm when you get home.
The 240V sauna heater responds quickly to your commands, whether you're adjusting temperature, setting timers, or monitoring your session, all from the convenience of your smartphone.
This smart functionality doesn't complicate the experience; it enhances it. The HUUM app interface is intuitive and user-friendly, giving you complete sauna control without overwhelming you with unnecessary features. It’s smart innovation designed to work seamlessly in the background, simplifying your life without getting in the way.
Perfect for Residential Saunas
The HUUM 9kW is ideally sized for home saunas, making it a popular choice for residential wellness enthusiasts who want professional-grade performance. Its compact wall-mounted design is perfect for spaces where every square foot matters, yet it doesn't sacrifice heating power or stone capacity. Whether you're building a new home sauna or upgrading an existing one, the Drop 9 provides the perfect balance of size, power, and capability.
More Than Just Good Looks
While the Drop's award-winning aesthetics and Red Dot recognition are impressive, this electric sauna heater with rocks proves that beauty and performance aren't mutually exclusive.
