Regional electrical SKUs

US 240/208V 2~; EU 230V 1/N~ or 400V 3/N~

Mini 4 uses an EU 230V 1/N~ row; full-size 6, 9, and 11 rows show EU 230V 1/N~ or 400V 3/N~ wiring. The EU 11 rows are 10.5 kW while the US rows list 11 kW.

3D model basis

Shared HUUM body/envelope for US and EU planning

HUUM CLIFF US and EU rows use the same SaunaDesignPro 3D body/envelope for placement. Do not treat that as the same electrical SKU; use the selected regional manual for output, phase, breaker, cable, controller, listing, and warranty.

  • Certified control system required
  • Add glass/tile/brick penalty before sizing
  • US and EU HUUM electrical packages use separate regional specs/listings; share the 3D body model only after confirming the exact market SKU
  • Floor brackets required
  • Do not install more than one heater in one sauna room
  • HUUM publishes UKU Classic and UKU Glass/Mirror/Gold controller 3D resources; SaunaDesignPro places the selected UKU controller outside the hot room in 3D planning.
  • 6/9/11 kW CLIFF and STEEL rows stand on four adjustable legs fixed to the floor with the included brackets (min 6 x 40 mm screws); Mini variants are the wall-bracket rows.
  • The full-size body may be partially embedded into a sauna bench or floor using HUUM's embedding flange accessory; at least 21.7 in (550 mm) of the heater must protrude above the bench surface.
  • CLIFF/STEEL manual Table 3 uses A for the lower/side combustible distance and B for the larger upper/wall safety envelope; SaunaDesignPro uses A for ordinary bench approach/cutouts and keeps B for the published front/upper wall clearance.
  • Where a bench or floor recess is intentionally detailed with HUUM's embedding flange, the EU manual shows the bench/floor opening detail and requires at least 21.7 in (550 mm) of heater protruding above the bench/floor surface.
