• There should never be a drain in a sauna. However, all public saunas
should have a drainage channel (I, fig. 16) connected to a drain out-side
the sauna (no drainage channel is needed in a private sauna).
• If the sauna has a window in the door or wall, treat the lower moulding
with boat varnish and seal the joint between the glass and the moulding
with a water-resistant silicone sealant. This prevents any condensation
on the glass from seeping into the wood.
• Varnish the threshold and door handles a few times with boat varnish to
maintain the finish and simplify cleaning the sauna. Benches, decorative
edging and back supports should be oiled on both sides with Tylö sauna
oil (this is particularly important in the Tylarium). Note: All other wood in
the sauna should be untreated.
• Install floor decking only if the floor is slippery. Floor decking is im-
practical and prolongs the drying time for any water spilt on the floor.
• Treat the bucket and ladle with boat varnish, or oil them with Tylö sauna
oil. The bucket will remain watertight and the wood will be beautifully
preserved. Never leave the wooden bucket in the sauna after a sauna
bath.
• Before you enjoy your first sauna bath, heat the sauna room up to 90°C
and leave the heater to run for about 1 hour. This will rid the room of that
“new” smell.

• Clean your sauna regularly. Scrub the benches and floor with soft soap.
It is a mild, gentle detergent and leaves a pleasant fragrance.
General Information
Fig. 18. Filling the stone compartment.
Only use stones of the dolerite type (Tylö sauna stones), as “ordinary”
stones can damage the unit. Fill the stone compartment around the
elements from bottom to top, stacking the stones approx. 50 mm above the
front edge at the top of the unit. Do not press the stones into place.
Fig. 19.
Never place stones above the side air chambers. This prevents air
circulation, the unit becomes overheated and the temperature limit control
is triggered.
Check the stone compartment at least once a year.
This is especially important for public saunas and saunas in frequent use.
Remove all stones from the compartment. Clean any small stones, grit,
gravel and chalky deposits from the bottom of the stone compartment. Use
only stones which are whole and intact, replacing them when necessary
with new dolerite stones.
Temperature limit control.
Tylö sauna heaters have a temperature limit control built into the terminal
box on the heater. This is activated automatically if there is any risk of
overheating. More often than not, the cut-off is triggered because of
incorrect sauna ventilation or an incorrectly located sauna heater. Call an
expert to reset the temperature limit control.
Fig. 20. Built-in humidifier (6,6 – 8 kW).
Fill the built-in reservoir with water before turning on the sauna, and you will
have a pleasantly humid sauna right from the start, which accelerates and
stimulates perspiration. You can also add a few drops of sauna fragrance
to the water in the humidifier.
Sprinkling water on the stones
Must always be done with a ladle onto the stones, never with a hose or
bucket. Note: The stones must be hot.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Sport and TS
Temperature setting.
The Roman numerals indicate a rising temperature scale. Experiment to
find the temperature that suits you best. Begin for example by turning the
thermostat dial to position IV. If you later find that you would prefer a higher
or lower temperature, adjust the dial up or down until you find the ideal
bathing temperature for you (usually 70–90°C). Once you have found the
right temperature, you can leave the dial on this setting.
Timer settings with control panels TS 16-3(B),
TS 30-03 and sauna heater Sport.
The first figures, 1–2–3, indicate the length of time the sauna will operate.
The following 9 figures are used to pre-set start-up times.
For immediate operation: First turn the dial past the first figure 3 and then
back again to the figure corresponding to the length of time you wish the
heater to run for (1, 2 or 3 hours). The timer turns the heater off
automatically when the 0 position is reached.
For automatic operation: Turn the dial to the figure 9 and then back to the
desired pre-set time (in other words, the number of hours before the heater
automatically switches itself on). The timer turns off automatically when the
0 position is reached.
You may turn the dial forwards or backwards whenever you wish, for
example, to switch off the sauna manually (turn to 0) or to change a setting
you have already made.
Timer settings with control panels TS 30-012.
The figures 1–12 on the timer indicate the operating time. The heater
remains in operation for the number of hours the switch is set to, and
automatically switches itself off when the 0 position is reached.
You may change the time setting whenever you wish and also switch off
the sauna by turning the dial to 0.

Functions.
1 = setting scale. 2 = time settings. 3 = temperature settings. 4 = on.
5 = off. 6 = lighting.
Illumination.
The illumination automatically switches on when the unit starts and
switches off automatically when the unit shuts down. You can also
switch the illumination on or off manually by pressing LIGHT.
Temperature setting.
(The heater must be switched on)
Press TEMP – the previous temperature setting is displayed.
The numbers indicate a rising temperature scale. Experiment to find
the temperature that suits you best. Begin for example by turning the
thermostat dial to position 4. If you later find that you would prefer a
higher or lower temperature, adjust the dial up or down until you find
the ideal bathing temperature for you (usually 70-90°C (158-194°F) for
traditional dry and wet sauna baths, 40-45°C (104-113°F) for steam
saunas and herb saunas).
Manual on/off.
Press ON to switch the facility on. Press OFF to switch it off. (the LED
goes out).
A memory function automatically sets the previous temperature.
Press TEMP – to change the pre-set temperature.
The built-in timer automatically switches the sauna heater/steam
generator off after 3 hours. If you want to switch it off earlier than that,
press OFF. To extend the sauna time, press ON.
Timer settings.
(The heater must be switched off)
The numbers in this case represent the timer times (= the number of
hours until the heater automatically switches on). To set the timer:
Press TIME – use the arrow keys to select the desired pre-set time,
1–10 hours.
Press ON – the timer is activated and the time indicator blinks during
the pre-set time period. Once the heater switches itself on, it remains
on for 3 hours, after which it automatically switches itself off. If you
want to switch it off earlier than that, just press OFF. To extend your
sauna time, press ON.
Main power switch.
On the underside of the heater is a main switch. It is only necessary to
use this switch if the equipment will lie idle for a fairly long period of
time.
Settings stored in the CC control panel’s memory function are erased
whenever there is an interruption in the power supply.
