Preparing for sauna heater installation
Check the following before installing the sauna heater:
1. The ratio of the heater's input (kW) and the sauna room's volume (m
presented in Table on page 4. The minimum and maximum volumes must not be exceeded.
2. The sauna room ceiling must be min 1900 mm high.
3. Uninsulated and masonry stone walls extend the preheating time. Each square metre of plastered ceiling or
wall surface adds 1.2 m
4. Check page 4. Table section for a suitable fuse size (A) and the correct diameter of the power supply
cable (mm²) for the sauna heater in question.
5. Conform to the specified safety clearance around the sauna heater. There should be enough room around
the sauna heater for maintenance purposes, a doorway etc.
Sauna heater stone
-
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.
-
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 on page 4. Any small stones in the
package of stones must not be piled on the sauna heater.
-
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.
Timer
The sauna heater is controlled by operating a 12-hour timer with three operating zones.
The timer is set by twisting the knob clockwise until the desired operating zone is reached. When operating, the timer
gradually travels counter-clockwise towards the zero position.
1. 0 position. The sauna heater is not on.
2. Operating zone 1–3 hours. Set on this zone, the sauna heater heats up at full power
while the sauna thermostat controls the temperature.
3. Preset zone 1–9 hours. Set on this zone, the sauna heater can be preset to turn on
after a certain period of time. The heating elements will not heat up when the timer is
within this zone.
Before turning the sauna heater on, make sure the sauna room is suitable for taking a
sauna bath.
The timer operates better if it is first turned further than the desired time and then turned
back to the desired time. If the switch has not travelled back to 0 position after finishing
bathing, turn it to 0 manually.
Thermostat
The thermostat knob is next to the timer knob. The further right (clockwise) the timer is
switched, the higher the temperature will rise in the sauna room. The best way to find
the ideal temperature is to first turn the thermostat fully on the right and let the
temperature rise to the desired temperature. Subsequently, turn the thermostat knob
slowly counter clockwise until you hear a gentle clicking sound. If you want to readjust
the temperature, turn the thermostat gradually until the temperature is ideal.
The thermostat will not operate correctly if the stones are piled too densely or they are
too small. Please refer to section "Sauna heater stones"
The thermostat has an integrated temperature limiter with a reset switch
next to the thermostat knob.
Connection of the sauna heater to the mains
The sauna heater must be connected to the mains by a qualified electrician and in compliance with current regulations.
Sauna heater is connected with a semi-permanent connection. Use H07RN-F (60245 IEC 66) cables or a corresponding
type. Other output cables (signal lamp, electric heating toggle) must also adhere to these recommendations. Do not use
PVC insulated cable as a connection cable for the sauna heater.
