Before you order
This page gathers what Homecraft Saunas publishes about the Revive Slim, checked Oct 10, 2026, and adds up what it costs to install.
Who should buy the Revive Slim?
The Revive Slim suits a small room. Homecraft rates the 5 kW for 100 to 250 cubic feet (2.8 to 7.1 m³) and the 6 kW for 200 to 325 (5.7 to 9.2 m³), which covers most two- and four-seat barrels. Homecraft designs and builds it in BC, and says it's ETL-listed to UL 875 and certified to CSA C22.2 No. 164.
For a bigger room or a deeper basket of stone, step up to the Revive. If price matters most, Fenno's W-Series from Markham costs less than half as much, with a simpler thermostat and timer on the heater itself.
What does it take to install?
The tower is 34 cm (13.5 in) wide, so it fits a tight corner of a small room. It's hardwired at 240V on a 30- or 40-amp breaker, depending on the size, and a licensed electrician makes the connection. Henki sells it with a local or a Wi-Fi control.
What does the Revive Slim cost all in?
| Cost | Amount | Where the figure comes from |
|---|---|---|
| List price | $2,220–$2,703 | The regular price at Henki, recorded Oct 10, 2026. |
| Stones | Extra | Unless you choose the Homecraft Rocks option |
| 240V circuit | Electrician's quote | A 30- or 40-amp breaker |
Henki's range runs from $2,220 to $2,703 depending on the size and the control, before the stones and the electrician.
