Which controller works with HUUM STEEL Mini?

Current controller guidance: HUUM UKU certified controls. Match the controller, relay or power unit, and voltage to the selected kW row before ordering.

Are US and EU HUUM STEEL Mini heaters the same for 3D planning?

HUUM STEEL Mini uses the same 3D heater body/envelope in SaunaDesignPro for US and EU planning, but the electrical SKUs are separate. Mini 4 uses the same 3D heater body for planning, but the EU electrical row is 230V 1/N~ rather than the US 240V 2~ package. Match the final phase, voltage, breaker, cable, controller, listing, and warranty to the regional manual before ordering.

Regional electrical SKUs

US 240V 2~; EU 230V 1/N~

Mini 4 uses the same 3D heater body for planning, but the EU electrical row is 230V 1/N~ rather than the US 240V 2~ package.

3D model basis

Shared HUUM body/envelope for US and EU planning

HUUM STEEL Mini 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
  • Stands on its four legs; anchor the top to the wall with the included wall mounting plate (screws at 835-875 mm)
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Mini CLIFF/STEEL models stand on their four legs and are additionally anchored to the wall with the included wall mounting plate (4 screws at 835-875 mm) instead of the floor brackets the larger sizes use; the same one-heater-per-room manual limit applies.
  • The power cable enters through the bottom cover (inlet about 55 mm / 2.2 in off the heater centerline per the manual install figure), so plan the wall-side cable rough-in before the heater is anchored.
