Instructions for electric sauna heaters

Before bathing for the first time heat up the heater once to burn off the protective oil solvents. Note that you need to air the sauna room efficiently afterwards.
The heating time is about 45–75 minutes depending on the size of the room and its ventilation.

Throwing water on the heater increases temperature and humidity. The top of the pillar creates more heat, while the sides create a gentler steam.
The temperature should be set by the temperature control in the control unit. A recommended temperature for IKI stone pillar is 50–70 degrees.

Maintenance Due to large variation in temperature, the sauna stones disintegrate in use. Pay attention especially to the gradual settling of the stones. Be sure that the heating elements do not appear with time. The stones settle most rapidly within two months of piling. Rearrange the stones at least once a year or even more often if the sauna is in frequent use. At the same time, remove any pieces of stones from the bottom of the heater and replace any disintegrated stones with new ones. By doing this, the heating capability of the heater stays optimal and the risk of overheating is avoided..
