Sauna stones
Sauna stones are natural materials. Check your sauna
stones at regular intervals, since they are susceptible
to the effects of strong steam-water additives and may
decompose over a long period of time. Consult your
sauna supplier if you have any questions.
The sauna stones delivered with your sauna heating
system should be washed thoroughly in running water
and placed in the stone grate in such a way that the
convection-air can flow freely between the stones
(Fig. 9 + 10).
The quantity of sauna stones is sufficient to vaporize
approx. 10 cl of water per cubic meter of cabin space.
Wait for about 10 minutes after each pouring before
adding water again. This allows the stones to heat up
sufficiently.
Never add more additives or ethereal oils to the steam
water than is indicated on the containers. Never use
alcohol or undiluted concentrates. Caution! Fire hazard.
URGENT WARNING!
Stones must not be piled in layers in the stone
grate on the sauna heater but instead placed
in a loose arrangement in order to ensure
that rising hot air can flow freely between the
stones.
Care and maintenance
All sauna heating units are made of corrosion-resistant
material. However, to ensure that you get maximum
enjoyment from your sauna system for as long as
possible, the unit should be cleaned and maintained
on a regular basis. All openings and baffle plates must
be free of obstruction at all times. These areas are
susceptible to deposits of dust and fluff drawn into the
unit with fresh air. This impairs the air-convection
process in the sauna heating unit and can lead to
overheating.
Clean the equipment as needed. If defects or signs of
wear and tear are detected, consult your sauna
supplier or the manufacturer.
Only use original manufacturer's replacement parts,
which can be obtained from your supplier or directly
from the manufacturer.
If you do not use your sauna for an extended period
of time, ensure before resuming sauna operation
that no cloths, cleaning agents or other objects
have been left on the sauna heating unit or the
vaporizer.
