As per CSA C22.2 No. 164-2018, sec7on 1.2 and sec7on 8.1.3, "factory built sauna rooms where the
necessary wiring and heater installa6on is done in the field", require the heater assembly to carry a CSA
C22.2 No. 164-2018, but the room itself is exempt from the direc7ve. The HomecraN Heaters that are
included with all Nootka Sauna kits carry this label.

    Rev 1. (June 2022) PART 3: TROUBLESHOOTING TROUBLESHOOTING CHECKLIST Troubleshoo7ng must be done by a cer7fied electrician and in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommenda7ons. Initial Checks:  Is the incoming power actually 240VAC? We’ve seen issues before where only ~190V is coming in (one of the legs is compromised) and this ends up giving enough power to sometimes show life on the front control power but not enough power to pull in the contractor).
