Maintenance 6.2 Sauna stones Sauna stones are a product of nature. Sauna stones must be replenished or reshuffled regularly depending on the intensity of use. The process of heating and cooling can make the stones brittle. Particular damage to the sauna stones can be caused by aggressive sauna essences, causing them to disintegrate over time.
Maintenance 8.3 Replacing tubular heating elements Individual tubular heating elements or the entire heating register can be replaced. If the heater is too close to a wall, it may need to be moved so that the rear side can be accessed. To make it easier to move the heater, the stones must be removed.
Maintenance 8.4 How should the ceramics be cleaned? First things first: Due to their surface texture and glaze, ceramic tiles have exceptionally good cleaning properties and high stain resistance. However, small irregularities can cause dirt and dust to settle on the tile surface. Only use strong cleaning agents in an emergency and avoid cleaning agents containing hydrofluoric acid or fluo- rides.
