Invest in Quality: Why Choose HUUM Drop Sauna Heaters from Topture

A HUUM DROP sauna heater is a functional work of art. Inspired by the pure form of a water droplet, its unique, wall-mounted design makes it a stunning centerpiece for any modern sauna. But it's not just about looks; the DROP's stainless steel construction holds an impressive 121 pounds of sauna stones, far more than most heaters of its size. This massive stone capacity is the secret to its renowned soft, high, and long-lasting steam. For those who want superior performance in a compact, elegant package, the HUUM DROP heater is the perfect choice.

Your guide to choosing the best HUUM DROP heater...

What makes the DROP so popular?

It's that unique blend of stunning design and incredible performance. While it can easily reach 230°F for an intense, hot session, its true magic comes from that massive stone capacity. This ensures a wonderfully soft, even, and long-lasting steam that fills the room, which is why it's become one of the most sought-after heaters for modern home saunas.

How do I control the heater?

The DROP pairs with HUUM's sleek UKU control system, which is required for operation. You can choose a simple, elegant wall-mounted controller or upgrade to a WiFi-capable model. The WiFi version is a customer favorite, as it lets you turn on and preheat your sauna from anywhere using a mobile app. While the controller is typically placed outside the sauna, HUUM's Glass and Wood models are specially designed so they can be installed inside the room (just be sure to follow the placement instructions!).

Which HUUM DROP model do I need?

The DROP comes in four different power levels, though the beautiful 'droplet' cage is the same physical size for all of them. The difference is the number of heating elements inside, which needs to match your room's volume. Here’s a quick guide:

HUUM Drop 4.5kW – suitable for sauna rooms between 106 and 247 ft³. This model draws 18.75 amps, requires a 30-amp circuit breaker, and uses 10 AWG wire.
HUUM Drop 6kW – suitable for sauna rooms between 177 and 318 ft³. It draws 25 amps, requires a 30-amp circuit breaker, and uses 10 AWG wire.
HUUM Drop 7.5kW – suitable for sauna rooms between 248 and 389 ft³. It draws 31.45 amps, requires a 40-amp circuit breaker, and uses 8 AWG wire.
HUUM Drop 9kW – suitable for sauna rooms between 282 and 460 ft³. It draws 37.5 amps, requires a 50-amp circuit breaker, and uses 8 AWG wire.

When picking your size, remember to account for any 'cold' materials like glass doors, windows, or tile walls, as they require more power. A good rule of thumb is to go one size up if you're on the line. To get a precise recommendation, check out our handy Sauna Heater Size Calculator to confirm the right model for your space.
