7. VENTILATION IN THE SAUNA

-  The ventilation in the sauna should be as efficient as possible in order to ensure 
  a sufficient oxygen level and freshness of air. We recommend that the fresh air  

 

  intake is located near the stove (but not closer than 50 cm). 
-  The fresh air intake shall be equipped with an adjustable valve.
-  The exhaust valve shall be at least twice the size of the fresh air intake. The exhaust  
  valve can be installed on the opposite wall, at least 20 cm higher than the fresh 
  air intake.

8. CONSTRUCTION OF SAUNA

-  The sauna shall be well heat insulated, particularly the ceiling, where most of 
  the steam rises. Due to the high level of humidity, the heat insulation should be  

 

  covered with moisture-proof material, such as aluminium paper.
  Wood should always be used for cladding.

9. PROTECTIVE RAILING

-  If required, a protective railing can be built 
  round the stove. See Fig. 10.
  We recommend a wooden railing. 
  The indicated safety distances to inflammable 
  structures must be observed.
 
  Improper installation will cause a fire hazard.
