2.5 Sauna heaters stones
Quality stones meet the following requirements:
-
Sauna stones should withstand heat and heat variation caused by vaporisation of the water thrown on
the stones.
-
Stones should be rinsed before use in order to avoid odour and dust.
-
Sauna stones should have an uneven surface to supply a larger surface for the water to evaporate from.
-
Sauna stones should be large enough, measuring about 50–100 mm to allow good ventilation between the
stones. This extends the useful life of the heating elements.
-
Sauna stones should be piled sparsely in order to enhance ventilation between the stones. Do not bend
the heating elements together or against the frame.
-
Rearrange the stones regularly (at least once a year) and replace small and broken stones with new, larg-
er stones.
-
Stones are piled so that they cover the heating elements. Do not, however, pile a large heap of stones on
the heating elements. For a sufficient amount of stones refer to Table 1 on page 7. Any small stones in the
package of stones must not be piled on the sauna heater.
-
The warranty does not cover defects resulting from poor ventilation caused by small and tightly packed
stones.
-
Structural clay tiles are not allowed. They may cause damage to the sauna heater that will not be covere
by the warranty.
-
Do not use soapstone as sauna rocks. Any damages resulting from this will not be covered by the stove
warranty.
-
Do not use lava stone as sauna rocks. Any damages resulting from this will not be covered by the stove
warranty.
-
DO NOT USE THE HEATER WITHOUT STONES.
2.6 Electric heating toggle
Electric heating toggle applies to homes with an electric heating system.
The sauna heater thermostat also controls the heating toggle. In other words, home heating turns on once the
sauna thermostat cuts power off the sauna heater.
