CONTROLLING THE HEATER
All certified control panels with thermal control may be used in cont-
rolling the heater. The output of the heater must remain in the interval
determined by the control panel’s producer.
You can find the right remote and other accessories from HUUM’s
selection of products.
GUARD RAILS
• It is recommended to construct a guard rail around the heater. We
recommend using materials with low heat capacity and bad ther-
mal conductivity for the guard rail.
• Upon using flammable materials, it is necessary to leave the speci-
fied minimal safety clearances between the heater and flammable
constructions.
ATTENTION!
IF THE HEATER IS INSTALLED CLOSER TO FLAMMABLE
CONSTRUCTIONS THAN AT THE DISTANCE OF THE MINIMAL REQUIRED
PROTECTION BELT IT MAY CAUSE A FIRE HAZARD!

SAUNA ROOM
Wall materials and insulating the sauna room
In a sauna with electric heating, all massive heat accumulating wall
surfaces (brick, glass brick, rendering etc.) must be insulated to use the
electric heater with a regular output.
The sauna wall and ceiling construction is considered to be
sufficiently insulated:
• a carefully installed insulation wool layer of 100 mm (min. 50 mm);
• the construction is damp proofed with taped aluminium paper or
other reflective material;
• there is a 10 mm air gap between the damp protection and boarding
• light wooden boards with about a 12–16 mm thickness have been
used for interior finishing;
• there is an air gap of at least 5 mm on the edge of the ceiling panels
at the upper part of the wall panelling.
In order to optimise the use of the heater, it would be practical to bring
the ceiling of the sauna room lower (regular 2,100–2,300, min. height of
sauna room 1,900 mm) so that the volume of the sauna room diminishes.
The ceiling should be insulated with an insulation layer at least 100 mm
thick and boarded according to the method described above. Wood
should be used to cover internal surfaces; an exception may be made
for heat resistant walls in the vicinity of the heater.
ATTENTION!
Insulating the warm masonry wall has to be approved by
a fire inspector. It is prohibited to insulate flues that are in use!
ATTENTION!
S Covering the walls or floor with light protective mate-
rial, for example, mineral tiles that are installed directly on the surface
of the walls or ceiling might cause the dangerous overheating of the
wall or ceiling material.
