moisture removal). The fire insulation on the steam room floor must extend a distance of 400 mm
(16”) beyond the front of the heater, 250 mm (10”) on both sides and 250 mm (10”) in the rear, or
up to an insulated wall on the sides and in the rear. As far as fire insulation on the fire door side
is concerned, also consider the instructions given in section 2.3.
If you are uncertain, consult the local building authorities.
2.5. INSTALLATION IN A BRICK CHIMNEY
The heater can be connected to a brick chimney from the rear or at the top. To do so, make a hole in
the chimney 2 to 3 cm (3/4 - 1 3/16”) wider than the connecting flue pipe. Seal the gap with an
elastic non-combustible material, such as fireproof wool. Cover the hole with the Kastor cover
plate available from your local hardware dealer. Use metal fixings to fasten the cover plate to the
brickwork.
When the connection is made in the rear, use a screwdriver to remove the plate covering the hole in
the rear mantle and use it to close the hole at the top of the heater. Install the connecting pipe
supplied to the heater and push the heater in position while ensuring that the connecting pipe fits
snugly in the hole made in the chimney. Seal the gaps as explained.
The connection to a brick chimney at the top of the heater is made using a 45° angle section that can
be turned to a suitable position in respect of the chimney (an extension pipe can be used if
necessary). First insert the heater’s exit flue pipe then place the angle section on top of it. If
necessary, the angle section
and any extension pipe can be sawn to required length. Seal and
cover the gap between the pipe and chimney as explained.
Follow the safety instructions given in section 2.3 and the brick-laying instructions for chimneys.
2.6. INSTALLATION USING THE KASTOR MODULAR CHIMNEY
(Not available in the U.S. market)
A Kastor heater can be connected to a prefabricated modular Kastor chimney. Be sure to select the
right size of chimney with due regard to heater model, chimney height, ambient conditions, etc.
To ensure optimum performance, always use a flue damper.
x
First insert the heater’s exit flue pipe.
x
On top of that, place a non-insulated connecting pipe and extension pipe if required. The connecting
and extension pipes can be sawn to required length. The flue damper is installed at the lower end
of the chimney.
x
Then continue with insulated chimney modules. The insulated part of the chimney must extend down
to a height of 400 mm (16”) below the ceiling. Follow the chimney instructions.
Follow the safety instructions.
Kastor Oy cannot guarantee the suitability and performance of chimneys from other manufacturers for
use with Kastor sauna heaters and naturally accepts no liability for their quality.
2.7. VENTILATION OF THE SAUNA
Gravity ventilation in the steam room:
Provide an air inlet opening of 70–140 cm
2
(27 5/16 – 54 5/8 in ² ) next to the heater near the floor level.
A 2 cm (13/16”) air gap between the steam room door and door frame is enough. An air outlet
pipe of the same size, preferably adjustable, can be provided under the upper bench opposite to
the heater, at least 1 m higher than the air inlet opening.
Mechanical ventilation in the steam room:
Provide an air inlet opening of 70–140 cm
² (27 5/16 – 54 5/8 in ² ) next to the heater near the floor level
or above the heater at a height of about 50 cm (19.5”) from the stones. A 2 cm (13/16”) air gap
between the steam room door and door frame is enough. An air outlet pipe of the same size,
preferably adjustable, can be provided under the upper bench opposite to the heater.
Please
note that the steam room air vents must made of metal!
2.8. FIRE DOOR
2.8.1 ADJUSTABLE LEFT OR RIGHT HAND SWING
To change the swing of the door, turn the fire door the other way round.
x
Open the fire door and push the hinge pin out through the bottom hole.
x
Pull the top pin downwards to detach the door. Do not forget the washers.
x
Turn the door upside down so that the handle is on the side where you want to have it.
