OEM-Matched 4.5kW at 240V
Wound specifically for 4.5kW residential 240V sauna heaters — a common mid-range size for 2–3 person saunas up to roughly 200 cubic feet. Check your heater nameplate for the exact kW rating before ordering.
Scandia OEM Compatibility
Direct drop-in for Scandia 4.5kW electric sauna heaters. Same mounting geometry, same watt density, same heat curve as the original element — no adapters or modifications required.
Mid-Range Coverage Sweet Spot
4.5kW bridges the gap between the 4kW and 5kW elements, covering the most common residential sauna cabinet sizes. If your sauna is 150–200 cubic feet, this is likely your element.
Electrician Recommended
240V is residential voltage, but sauna heater element replacement involves live wiring inside a moisture-prone environment. A licensed electrician is strongly recommended for safe, code-compliant installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before ordering a replacement heating element
Heater powers on but produces little or no heat, sauna won't reach target temperature, or your electrician measures infinite resistance across the element terminals. Confirm with a resistance test before ordering.
Check the metal nameplate on the heater body — it lists the kW rating directly. 4.5kW is common in residential saunas sized for 2–3 people. Match the nameplate exactly.
4.5kW heaters are typically sized for saunas in the 150–200 cubic foot range. If your sauna is significantly larger and underperforming, verify the element hasn't failed — and confirm the heater was correctly sized for the room.
No. Using a different wattage element changes the heat output and can affect thermostat calibration. Always match the kW on the nameplate exactly — 4.5kW and 5kW are not interchangeable.
A qualified, experienced DIYer may be able to perform this swap at 240V residential voltage — but a licensed electrician is strongly recommended given the wet-rated environment inside a sauna cabinet.
