THROWING WATER
ON THE HEATER
The air in the sauna becomes dry as it heats
up. Therefore, it is necessary to create steam
to achieve a suitable level of humidity.
The effects of heat and steam on people
are different. When testing the different
settings of the sauna climate device, you
will find the most suitable combination of
temperature and humidity. The effects of
heat and steam on people are different.
When testing the different settings of the
SAUNUM climate device, you will find the
most suitable combination of temperature
and humidity.
The volume of the sauna ladle should
not exceed 0.2 litres. When throwing
water, the amount of water should not
exceed 0.2 litres, because by pouring
too much water on the stones at once,
some of it may be sprayed outwards in
splashes of boiling water.
Make sure that people are at a safe distance
from the heater when creating steam! Hot
steam and water splashes cause skin burns.
The water to be thrown onto the heater must
meet the requirements for clean domestic
water. Only fragrances specially designed
for a sauna may be used in the water. Follow
the instructions on the package.
NB! Do not pour water into the ventilation
openings of the sauna climate device!

LOADING THE STONES

Stacking stones has a great effect on the
operation of the heater.
Important to know:
• The diameter of the stones must be
5–8 cm.
• Only stones sold for saunas are inten-
ded for use in the heaters.
• Do not use light, porous ceramic
"stones", or soft tiles in the heater.
They do not store enough heat when
heated and can result in damage to
the heating elements.
• Wash any dust off the stones before
placing them in the heater.
NB! When using Saunum equipment,
we always recommend doing so with
high-quality polished sauna stones!
When loading the stones, note:
• Do not allow the stones to fall into
the heater.
• Do not force the stones between the
heating elements.
• Do not allow the stones to rest on
the heating elements with their own
weight, but load the stones so that
they support each other.
• Do not stack the stones on the
heater.
• Do not place objects in the vicinity of
the stone area or the fan of the sauna
climate device that may change
the amount or direction of the air
flowing through the sauna climate
device.
