Tips for using Your Sauna 

1)

 

If you take a hot/warm shower or bath before using your sauna, you may perspire 
more and experience more comfort. 

2)

 

Drink water prior to, during, and after your sauna session to replenish body fluids. 

3)

 

The ventilation vent is installed on the sauna and should never be obstructed. 

4)

 

You can use 2 towels during your sauna session. Fold one of the towels several 

times and place it on the bench. This towel will absorb some of your perspiration 
while adding comfort as you sit on the bench. Use a second towel to wipe 
perspiration from your body from time to time. 

5)

 

This is a non-commercial sauna. For every four hours ON, the sauna must be 

turned OFF for one hour to cool down. 

6)

 

At the first sign of a cold or flu, increasing your sauna sessions may be beneficial in 
boosting your immune system and decreasing the reproductive rate of viruses. 

7)

 

To help relieve sore and tense muscles, massage the affected areas during your 

sauna session. 

8)

 

The peaceful and relaxed state rendered by a sauna session may help you to sleep 

easier and deeper. 

9)

 

To protect the user from coming into contact with the heater, be sure to install the 

heater wood guard. 

10)

 

After the sauna session is over, do not jump into the shower or bath immediately. 

Because your body was heated up during the sauna session, it will continue to 
perspire even after you exit the sauna room. Sit in the sauna with the door open 
slightly and let your body cool down. Once your body has cooled down and you 
feel comfortable, you can exit the sauna. After about twenty minutes and when 
your body has completely cooled down, you can take a shower to rinse the 
perspiration off your body. 

11)

 

To avoid a hazard, do clean the sauna floor of all perspiration and debris 

after each sauna session. 

 

Safety Instructions 

1.)  Read and follow all instructions carefully before using the sauna. 
2.) When installing and using the electrical equipment, safety precautions should 

always be followed. 

3.) To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to use the sauna unless they are 

directed by a medical doctor and are closely supervised at all times by an adult. 

4.) Do not use the sauna immediately following strenuous exercises. Wait at least 30 

minutes to allow the body to cool down completely.
