Sauna Heater Manual
11. Maintenance
We recommend that you inspect the sauna heater on a regular basis for any signs of deterioration
of the condition, pay particular attention to both the fastenings, the condition of the wiring and
the electrical elements.
Note if the rocks have started to crumble this can cause the elements to overheat and they should
be changed for new rocks. We recommend commercial operators to change the rocks at least once
very 12 months.
11.1. Sauna Heaters & Sauna Cabins Maintenance
All Sauna products supplied by Direct Saunas Limited and Oceanic Saunas are for use in an indoor
environment such as a domestic house or a club building and should not be used in any other
circumstances.
11.2. Sauna Maintenance
Dependant upon how regularly the sauna cabin is being used a series of maintenance checks
should be performed on the sauna cabin and sauna heater to ensure that they are kept in a good
state of repair.
For commercial users we recommend these inspections be conducted on a monthly basis by a
member of the maintenance staff and detailed records kept.
For domestic use these checks should be carried out every 6 months.
Any obvious deterioration should be noted immediately if noticed in between maintenance checks
and should be resolved before continuing use of the products.
Under no circumstances do we recommend operating the sauna cabin if any electrical wiring
is considered to be hazardous, please contact your electrician or our technical department for
assistance.
11.3. Maintenance Checks
Please note all maintenance checks should be preformed whilst the sauna cabin and sauna heater
are cold.
11.4. Sauna Heater:
Ensure the heater has been correctly disconnected from the mains electricity before these checks
are conducted
1)
Check sauna elements for signs of deterioration. Report any signs of deterioration to the
supplier
2)
Make sure all rocks are placed correctly onto the heater elements to ensure an adequate
airflow around the elements. Note that the rocks will gradually crumble and settle around the
elements which can then cause overheating, this may lead to early failure or even melting of the
elements.
