Use only small, dry firewood in the stove. The use of larger and damp firewood may double the
heating time and it will also generate a lot of smoke. We do not recommend black alder because it is
sootier than other wood. It is advisable to adjust the air intake of the stove according to the type
and size of the wood, so as to reduce the amount of smoke.
Use any lighter fluid according to the instructions. Do not use any other fuels for lighting. We
recommend lighting pieces, e.g. Burner paraffin bags.
Cold water and warm air (temperature difference/air humidity) often cause condensed water in the
ash collector. Therefore, the stove is not leaking although there is some water in the furnace. You
can suspect a leakage only if the water level is going down.
During heating, the tub should be covered in order to limit heat evaporation as much as possible.
The water temperature should be measured every 20 minutes during heating. Because water
stratifies into layers when it warms up, it should be mixed with a Kirami paddle, for example. When
the temperature reaches approx. 32°C, it is advisable to reduce the amount of firewood added so as
to avoid overheating the tub. When the desired temperature has been reached, you may keep a
small fire under the tub where necessary to sustain the temperature. Practice makes perfect in this
as in anything else.
It is advisable to open the cover about 5 minutes before getting in the bath to allow the water to
settle. For reasons of safety and heat evaporation, the cover should be closed as soon as possible
after taking a bath, especially if you intend to use the tub the next day.
Surface treatment
Stained spruce
Stained spruce panels will maintain their colour quite well, but they can be re-treated if
necessary. Water-based wood oil Teknoshield 4015 was used at the factory. Two tones are
available, the common brown (Dark Wallnut, TM-1704), and one that is not used so commonly
(Ebenholz, TVT-5719). The surface can be treated with similar oil when necessary. Woodex Aqua
suits for treatment in Finland. On top of Teknoshield 4015 you can use different kinds of wood
oils and transparent paints (solvent and water based).
Thermowood
A tub lined with thermally modified wood is beautifully brown. If you want to keep the brown
tone, the tub shall be oiled from the outside at least once a year with an UV-protected
impregnant. Water-based wood oil Teknoshield 4015 has been used at the factory. The re-
treatment should be made with similar oil and with selected brown tones. Teknos Woodex Aqua
suits for treatment in Finland. On top of Teknoshield 4015 you can use different kinds of wood
oils and transparent paints (solvent and water based).
ProfiLine composite and EcoPlank
Composite paneling and recycled plastic endure wear and humidity well and repel stains. Splinters
do not come from the surface as easily, either. The materials endure UV-radiation well and will not
"grey" easily. Both materials are easy to maintain and do not require any re-treatment, they only
