The SAWOTEC Mini MN-36NS-Z / MN-36NB-Z is a compact, wall-mounted electric sauna heater with 3.6kW output, purpose-built for small home saunas of 3–6 m³. Available in two variants — with a separate external control unit (NS-Z) or with a built-in NB control unit (NB-Z) — it delivers efficient Finnish sauna heat in a minimalist stainless steel body that fits perfectly into modern and compact sauna spaces.
Despite its small footprint, the heater holds up to 10.5kg of sauna stones, delivering stable, comfortable sauna heat and genuine Finnish steam. The built-in variant (MN-36NB-Z) includes an integrated timer, thermostat, and delayed start — eliminating the need for a separate controller and simplifying installation.
