You must also find out about possible necessary building planning permissions and the floor
load capacity before installing the heater.
Before installing the chimney, you must also check the chimney's temperature class.

Temperature of combustion gas is 434 °C

Necessary temperature classification for the chimney is T-600
Check the following issues and how they affect where the heater should be installed:

Safety distance to flammable and non-flammable structures (sections 2.3 and 2.4)

Location of chimney connection (the height of the possible old chimney connection from
the floor and installation route of the chimney

Floor material (flammable, non-flammable, tiled, waterproof).
If heater is connected to a divided chimney (another stove has already been connected to the
chimney), each connection must have its own damper. Chimney is sized according to
larger stove.
Before beginning heating, also make sure that the smoke flue draft is sufficient and that the
heater is not damaged.

Draft in the chimney is -12 Pa on nominal output.

Draft can be roughly checked for example by burning a bit of newsprint in the heater.

Before lighting, switch off equipment causing negative pressure, such as hood or
machine-operated ventilation. If the ventilation system has been equipped with a
fireplace switch, use it according to the system instructions.

If heater has its own external delivery pipe for combustion air, make sure it is open and
that there are no items causing a blockage in front of it and that there is a supply of air.
The delivery pipe can be located by the heater on the wall or floor. It must be equipped
with a grille which can be closed or something similar. The pipe size is 120mm. The grille
should be closed after the sauna is no longer used.

Kastor heaters are meant to be used for heating a sauna. They must not be used for any
other purpose.

The heater is not meant for continuous 24 hour use.

Sea water must not be thrown on the stones, only use clean water.

In the proximity of sea water, there is also the risk of corrosion for the heater; operating
life may be shorter.

Decorative or other items must not be placed on the heater. The heater must not be
covered when it is heated, or when it is hot. E.g. drying clothes or other flammable
material on the heater is forbidden due to fire risk.
In order to guarantee full power and safety, the fire door must always be kept shut when
heating. The fire door can be open when heating only when adding more firewood, and
the heater must be continuously observed. Monitor the temperature of the stones to avoid
overheating the sauna stove.

Fire doors and glass surfaces must be handled carefully.

Fire door handle may be hot; use a tool when opening. (glove)

If the heater has not been used and if it has been kept in a damp space (e.g. unheated
holiday house) for a long time, it must be carefully checked before use that it has suffered
no corrosion damage and that the chimney is not blocked, for example by a bird's nest.

If a chimney fire occurs, or if there is a risk of one, close the fire doors but leave the
damper on the flue open.

Call the fire brigade if you need help with putting the fire out. After a chimney fire, a local
chimney sweeper must always check the condition of the flue.

A chimney fire, even one that was put out, must always be reported to the fire authorities.
