I'm putting together a custom outdoor sauna about 8x8x10 feet with a big glass window for the view (there's like this stream of water and much much greenery outside my house lol). I need the best electric sauna heaters you've ever tried, preferably reaching 10.5kW. Iki only goes up to 9kW, which seems small for my space. Give me your best shots please! The best ones in the US market.
 
With the setup you have, it's really best to get a 10.5kW electric sauna heater!
I think you have good options with Harvia Cilindro, HUUM and Finnleo Laava.
Hope you find what's best and enjoy your sauna with a view!

Iki are great, but yeah, 9kW is usually good for a max of ~450-500 cu ft.

if you want something that hit or exceed 10.5kW, look into HUUM heaters, they're super modern, efficient, and their bigger models easily hit that power.
Also, Saunacore makes some heavy duty units that crank. 10.5kW is great, but maybe you want to push for 12kW+ to really blast it, especially with that big view window potentially sucking heat

What's your maximum budget for it, so I can recommend top US 10.5 kW models that match your price range?
 
Yeah, I agree. Glass loses heat fast. Going with a 12kW heater sounds like a good plan for your sauna size. HUUM and Saunacore? solid brands known for being powerful and lasting.
