2.9. General directions to prevent damage
When you bring the stove into the sauna, before you add the stones, burn a full load of wood in a
well ventilated sauna to burn off the last protective substances and harden the coating.
Please read and follow the instructions below:
•
Remember to leave free air space to aid the burning process.
•
Do not heat immediately at full blast, if it is cold. The brick chimney might suffer damage.
•
Do not throw water directly at the glass door.
•
The stove’s operating life shortens, if it is constantly heated to a red glow.
•
The stove’s working life will be shortened significantly, if it is subjected to salt water. Note
that in close proximity to the sea even well water may contain salt.
•
Factors influencing the stove’s useful life are, among other things, how well its size is suited to the
sauna, the fuel used, how often it is used, failure to follow these instructions and general
carefulness.
•
Kastor stoves have been very carefully designed and tested. On the basis of our studies, we at
Helo Oy know that if the stove suffers damage in a very short time (e.g. the walls split or burn
through, the top burns through etc.), the stove has not been used according to instructions. Helo
Oy does not take responsibility for damage through failure to follow the user’s manual.
3. Using the stove
3.1. Fuel
Use only untreated wood in Kastor stoves, preferably sturdy split logs of various woods, such as birch or
alder. The logs should at most be 35 cm long. Wet or foul wood does not heat very well.
It is not permitted to burn treated wood, wood with nails, plywood, plastic, plastic coated
cardboard or paper in this stove. Fluid fuels may not be used even while starting the fire, since it
