2.13. Sauna heater 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 50–70 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, larger stones.
-
Empty the stone compartment regularly, at least once a year in private use, remove small and broken stones and
replace them with new ones.
-
In commercial use this operation must be performed at least every second month.
-
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 5. 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 covered
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.
2.14. If the sauna heater will not heat up
If the sauna heater will not heat up, please check that:
-
the power is on;
-
the main fuses of the sauna heater are intact;
-
is there any error messages on the control panel. In case of an error message on the control panel,
please refer to the control panel instructions.
THE PERSON INSTALLING THE SAUNA HEATER SHOULD LEAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AT THE PREMISES
FOR THE FUTURE USER.
