The sauna heater will not heat up
• Check that the sauna heater's fuses in the electrical panel are intact.
• Check that the sauna heater's connection cable is plugged in.
• Check that the overheat protector has not tripped (see control unit installation instructions).
The sauna room heats up slowly. Water thrown onto the sauna heater cools the stones quickly
• Check that the sauna heater's fuses in the electrical panel are intact.
• Check that all the heating elements glow when the sauna heater is on.
• Set the temperature higher (see the installation instructions for the control unit).
• Check that the sauna heater power is not too low.
• Check that the ventilation in the sauna room is correctly arranged.

Panels or other material near the sauna heater darken quickly
• Make sure that the safety distance requirements are met.
• Make sure that the heating elements are not visible beyond the stones. If visible, restack the stones
and make sure that the heating elements are completely covered.
• See also point (7.3. Darkening of sauna walls).
The sauna heater produces an odour
• See point (8.1. Use of the sauna heater)
• A hot sauna heater may intensify odours mixed in the air, but the sauna or the heater do not produce
odours themselves. Examples: paints, glues, heating oil and spices.
The sauna heater produces noise
• Occasional bangs are usually caused by stones that crack in the heat.
• Thermal expansion of the sauna heater parts may cause noise when the sauna heater heats up.
