Description
The M series is the plain, honest Harvia — the one that has been in Finnish saunas for decades and still outsells most of what came after. No water tank, no glass theatre, just a firebox and a stone bed that heats a small room quickly.
Sizing: 16.5 kW, rated by Harvia for sauna rooms of 212–459 cu ft. Measure the room, not the bench.
Stones: choose above. Harvia’s minimum for this stove is 2 boxes of the 4–6 in fraction. Pick Included and they travel on the same pallet as the stove; pick Not included if you already have stone or would rather source it locally.
The minimum is a minimum, not a suggestion — an under-filled stove runs hot and loud and gives thin steam. If you are stacking it yourself, order one spare box of AC3020: natural stone varies in shape, and the spare is what lets you sort for a loose, well-packed pile.
Chimney: a wood-burning stove needs a UL-listed class-A chimney sized to its flue collar, installed to local code. We do not supply Harvia flue parts — plan that with your installer before the stove arrives.
Stones: choose above. Harvia’s minimum for this stove is 2 boxes of the 4–6 in fraction. Pick Included and they travel on the same pallet as the stove; pick Not included if you already have stone or would rather source it locally.
