2.6 Preparing for sauna heater installation
Check the following before installing the sauna heater:
1. The ratio of the heater's input (kW) and the sauna room's volume (m
3
). Volume/input recommendations are
presented in Table 1 on page 8. The minimum and maximum volumes must not be exceeded.
2. The sauna room ceiling must be min 1900 mm high.
3. Uninsulated and masonry stone walls extend the preheating time. Each square metre of plastered ceiling or
wall surface adds 1.2 m
3
to the sauna room's volume.
4. Check page 9. Table 2 section for a suitable fuse size (A) and the correct diameter of the power supply
cable (mm²) for the sauna heater in question.
5. Conform to the specified safety clearance around the sauna heater. There should be enough room around
the sauna heater for maintenance purposes, a doorway etc.
2.7 Helo Qlick-Fix
heater
installation
Install the heater in the sauna in accordance with the safety distances in
table 1 on page 8
. A thin panel is not enough as
a mounting base, the mounting base must be reinforced with a board behind the panel.
Table 1 on page 8 1
gives the
minimum distances that must be observed, even if the wall material is a non-combustible material.
Walls or ceilings must not be clad with fibre-reinforced plaster board or other light-weight cladding, because they may
cause a fire hazard.
Only one heater may be installed in the sauna.

See table 1 for minimum safety distance to wall B and
floor J. Use mounting paper to locate the holes. Drill a
3.5mm pilot hole in the panel and fasten
6 x 40 mm mounting screws (2 pcs) to the wall. Leave a
gap between the screw head and the wall 1-2 mm. Install
the heater by pushing it into place through the holes and
lowering. The tongues lock the heater, preventing lifting
without a tool.
When performing maintenance, the heater can be removed
from the wall mount if necessary by unscrewing the 4
screws on the sides.
NOTE! Stones must be removed before the heater is
removed.
Slide the heater upward and pull it outward.
Reinstall in the reverse order. Press into the slots, lower
and tighten the screws.
