Instrcution manual: Kirami Micu outside heater for hot tubs
Before using the tub for the first time, we recommend to rinse the stove’s water circulation
pipes carefully. Rinse the inside of the heater through upper pipes with water so that possible
garbage comes out of the heater. When filling the tub, make sure that the rubber hoses used for
connecting the stove do not leak. If necessary, tighten the hose clamps.
Do not overheat the water. We recommend a bathing temperature of no more than
+37
°
C.
Empty the heater from ashes after every use.
Use only small and dry firewood for the heater. The use of big and moist wood will easily double
the heating time. Use of common alder is not recommended, since it causes more soot and
stickier soot than other firewood.
The use of the heater that is loaded from outside of the barrel is as easy as the use of
any other normal fireplace. We recommend the use of small firewood when starting the
fire and then gradually add bigger ones, if needed.
While heating the water, it is
advisable to keep up a fare-sized fire in the heater so that the wood would
burn properly and the maximum output can be achieved.
When keeping a
small fire the heating time will be much longer
.
When using lighter fluid act according to the instructions of the fluid. Never use any other fluids
than those that are made for it. We recommend the use of burning pieces, for example Burner-
paraffin bags.
Heater paint surface can be stained by drinking classes, pool chemical cans, chemical dispensers
and sometimes even by water with calcium. So please do not use your heater as a table.
Cleaning and chemicals
Take care of the sanitation and hygiene of the barrel by washing and drying it often enough.
You can wash the barrel with pine soap and scrubbing brush, or using some other bio soap. If the
barrel is in public use it is important to use chemicals that kill bacteria, in other words chlorine.
When the barrel is only in home use there are oxygen-based alternatives for chlorine. These
chemicals are suitable for disinfecting small tubs. You can find the instructions for dosages on
the packages of the chemicals, and the instructions should be followed carefully. Over dosages
might cause corrosion of the barrel / heater parts.
NOTICE!
When using chemicals, it is
important to follow the pH level of the water and it should remain within 7,0 – 7,6. The use of
chemicals usually lowers the pH level, which might again result in corroding the barrel parts. The
use of trichlorine-based and other tablet combinations is prohibited in the barrels, except for 20
g tablets, which do not raise the concentrations too high.
Use only chemicals recommended
by the manufacturer
