TAKING CARE OF YOUR SAUNA
BENEFITS OF SAUNA
Regular cleaning of your sauna is very important:
– sweep or vacuum the floor, including the benches if needed
– wipe the walls where you touch them - i.e. above the benches, around the door and the control
panels
– use warm water with a fine soap cleaner and a clean cloth, then wipe with a clean wet cloth
– avoid strong cleaners that may stain the wood or even leave traces of chemicals which may
release to the air by heat. We recommend to stick to special infra sauna cleaners, such as
Saunareiniger
– do not use too wet cloth to avoid wood darkening
– when using your sauna always use a towel for sweat wiping, generally your skin should not be
in direct contact with the sauna surface, i.e. the benches, the walls or the backrests
– never use steam cleaners, pressure cleaners or water sprays for cleaning your sauna.
– never pour water or rinse the infra sauna inside or outside
– never use dyes or other chemicals to paint the sauna inside, the heat may cause release of
vapours form the paint
– for wood impregnation of its protection against humidity you can use paraffin oil on the
benches and other exposed wooden walls, which will in addition make the natural wood
patterns stand out more pronouncedly
