Heating the sauna
• Avoid overheating the sauna stove; overheating is indicated
when the furnace case glows red. Overheating causes the metal
to deform, and the manufacturer is not responsible for this
defect.
• In the case of overheating, the ash tray must be completely
closed to stop the furnace combustion process. Keep the
furnace door closed. If possible, cut off air flow to the room.
• It is recommended each time you heat the sauna stove that
some quantity of the fuel consists of small and easily flammable
pieces of material which are more porous and lighter compared
to the rest of the fuel quantity.
• The sauna stove can only be heated with wood logs. For Hive
Wood 13 logs with a length of 11.8 in/30 cm are the best and for
Hive Wood 17 logs with a length of 15.7 in/40 cm.
• The amount of air combustion is adjusted by changing the
position of the ash tray drawer. During ignition, it is advisable to
keep the ash tray open by up to 0.4 in/10 mm. As the material
ignites, close the ash tray to the point where the distance
between the front of the tray and the wall is 0.08-0.12 in/2-3 mm,
depending on the draught.
• Keep the furnace door closed during heating. Open the door only
to add firewood.
• Avoid splashing water onto the hot glass of sauna stoves with a
glass door. Tempered door glass is not under warranty.
• The heating time of the steam room is dependent on the thermal
resistance of the wall materials, room size and power of the
sauna stove.
• The outer surfaces of the sauna stove are hot during heating.
Contact with exposed body parts can cause burns.
• Do not splash salt water onto the sauna stove.
• It is not advisable to throw hard water or water with a high iron
content onto the sauna stove.
