AFTER INSTALLATION
TESTING OF SAUNA HEATER
1. After sauna heater has been properly
wired, according to appropriate wiring
diagram and local codes, turn sauna
breaker on in the main breaker panel.
(Note! Electrician must label “Sauna”
breaker.)
2. Turn thermostatic (heat) control to
on position (this is located either on
your heater or on your remote wall
control. If you have a wall control, the
indicator light will come on to show
that the sauna is heating). Set timer to
10- to 15-minutes.
3. Within 5-minutes, you should be able
to feel heat from heater elements
when holding hand over heater.
4. If the sauna does not heater, refer to
troubleshooting information.
5. It is normal for smoke to appear
during the first heating, as protective
element coating needs to burn off.
Turn sauna on for 1-hour before using
for first time, to eliminate smoke.
3-PHASE HEATER WIRING AND
HOOKUP (C1000-3/K10G-U3,
C1250-3/K12.5G-U3, C1500-3/
K15G-U3)
Refer to table 2 for proper wire size and
amperage. See figures 2 - 6 for required
clearances. Use copper wire from breaker
to wall-mounted power unit. Supply cable
must have 4 wires including insulated
neutral and separate ground.
Models C1000-3/K10G-U3
requires a
HeatPad10/CX30-U1-U3 sauna heater
control. Follow 208V 3Ph wiring on
ClubHeat series wiring schematic (page
15 of HeatPad installation and operation
manual).
Models C1250-3/K12.5G-U3 and C1500-
3/K15G-U3
require a HeatPad15/CX45-
U1-U3 sauna heater control. Follow 208V
3Ph wiring on ClubHeat series wiring
schematic (page 15 of HeatPad installation
and operation manual).
Use 194°F (90°C) copper wire from power
unit to room light. Also use 194°F (90°C)
copper wire from power unit to sauna
heater (within seal tight flex conduit), and
connect to junction box under heater at
back, with 194°F (90°C) connector.
If connection to heater will be made at a
later time, bring flex into sauna room 4 - 6”
from floor, and leave 3’ of flex for hookup
(can be cut to right length later). Before
testing heater, fill rock cavity with igneous
stones provided with heater and fasten
metal protective grill on top of heater.
(See general information info concerning
washing and placing of stones.)
