Piling the stones
Beware of the sharp edges of the stainless-steel mesh. Use a long-sleeved
shirt and protective gloves during the installation and once taking the heater
out of the cardboard box!
1. Wash the stones before piling. Olivine, olivine-diabase, peridotite or black volcanite stones are
recommended stones, in sizes 2-4 inches (5-10 cm) in diameter.
2. Pile stones first to the lower part of the heater (Picture 6.) (Do not drop stones into the heater!).
Also pile stones densely between the half round metal sheet (Picture 7: B) and the outer mesh.
The dense layer prevents the direct heat radiation from the overheating possibly flammable
materials around the heater. In the center part, between the heating elements, the stones are set
more loosely that lets the air flow through the heater, resulting in a faster heating of sauna and
stones. Assure that elements do not touch each other or the heater mesh frame. Make sure that
the stones support the elements to stay vertically straight. (Picture 8: A; element guidance plate /
B; half round metal sheet).
3. Once the lower part has been filled with stones, attach the upper part of the mesh frame to the
lower frame. The upper part goes inside the lower part (Picture 9.).
4. Install the wall-mounting support metal plate between the heater and the wall by following the
safety distances ( Picture 10.)
5. Pile stones to the fill the upper part the same way as in the lower part. Make sure to support the
elements with stones so that the elements stay vertically straight without touching each other or
bending against each other at any point during the adding of stones. (Picture 11.) . You can leave
the element guidance plate plate under the stones appx. 15cm (6 inches) from the top of the
heating elements. Do not drop stones into the heater at any point instead pile them carefully. Be
especially careful with the corners where the heating elements are near the mesh to cover the
area between the elements and mesh. A bare heating element can endanger combustible
materials even outside the safety distances. Check that no heating elements can be seen behind
the stones! Do not put a high pile of stones on top of the heater (Picture 12. ).
6. Once you have filled stones into the heater Install the safety grid on top of the heater (Picture 13.).
7. Install the heat/steam deflector directly on top of the heater. Tighten the plate to the ceiling by
using 4 screws. That will prevent the ceiling from overheating above the heater (Picture 14.) .
8. Please place the metal “CAUTION” sign on the interior wall of the sauna room directly above the
heater (Picture 15.) in a visible place (screws and nails included). Place the metal “WARNING” sign
outside, on the door of the sauna room
(Picture 16.).
9.
Note!
The use of soapstone and natural stones is allowed only on the outer edges and on the top
of the heater.
10. We recommend the use of safety railings around the heater. However, the stainless-steel mesh
frame does not overheat the way ordinary steel-cased heaters do.
11. The surface of the stones can settle after the heater is in use. Frequently check that the heating
elements do not become exposed. If this should happen, add more stones. The disintegration of
the stones depends on the type of stones and the frequency of use. The condition of the stones
should be checked yearly, and broken stones must be replaced with new ones.
