burning a small firelighter in the upper part of the chimney. The mouth of the stove and the hatch
will bend if you let the draught continue in the wrong direction. This will not be covered by the
guarantee.
MAINTENANCE AND SAFETY OF THE TUB
Cover the tub when it is not being used to keep it clean. An excessively tight cover is not good,
because the wood needs to breathe also from inside of the tub. Optional model-specific covers suit
for covering the tub. During the heating, the tub should be covered in order to keep the heat
evaporation as low as possible. The built-in stoves need to have space around the chimney when
heating.

Surface treatment

The bath tub made of ThermoWood is beautifully brown. If you want to keep the brown tone, the
tub needs to be oiled from inside about every 6 months with wood oil including UV protection. The
water-thinned, toned wooden oil suitable for treating the thermowood tub is Teknos' Woodex
Aqua. The tubs are handled with tone 7817/09 (Kirami light yellow) at the factory. The post-
treatment should be made with a suitable brown colour, because the lighter wood needs more
colour. Do not use any protective substances inside the tub because they will solve in water. In case
some kind of coating is used on the inner surface of the tub, in violation of these instructions, the
guarantee expires.
Other remarks
The external stove is emptied at the same time when you empty the water from the tub. Do not
leave water unsupervised/unheated at subzero temperatures. The stove, drain pipes, and taps
freeze really easily. In case the stove is frozen, do not light a fire but rather thaw the stove slowly.
Hygiene
Chemicals killing bacteria, i.e. chlorine, are for public use. There are oxygen-based chemicals to
replace chlorine for home use and they are suitable for disinfecting small tubs. The dosage
instructions for chemicals can be found in the packages and they should be followed. Excessively
large dosages may cause the corrosion of the tub parts. NOTE! When using chemicals, the pH of the
water should always be monitored and kept in the given limits, i.e. 7.0-7.6. When using chemicals,
the pH usually decreases, which may corrode the tub parts. The use of trichlorine or other
combination tablets in the tub is forbidden, excluding 20 g tablets whose concentrations are not
too high. Use only chemicals recommended by the manufacturer. Substances in tablet formats
shall always be dissolved in the tub using a dispenser, never directly to the tub.
In order to use the same water for a long time, use both chemicals and a filter and other cleaning
solutions if necessary. Only chemicals and the filter can keep the water clean and hygienic for a
long time. Ask more about filters and chemicals from your dealer.
Do not use swimming pool chemicals in these small tubs. The dosages will be too high
and they will corrode the materials. Remember also that even automatic chemical
devices should be supervised and the water pH and other values should be measured
regularly.
In case the tub is filled with water for exhibition purposes, the water shall always be
chemically treated.
