Preparing for installation
Read these assembly instructions carefully and keep them within reach when
using the sauna so that you can look up product information at any time.
Important note:
●The room that the sauna is installed in must be dry and ensure an appropriate
amount of air circulation.
● The oor must be level and even, preferably a stone, concrete, tiled or vinyl
oor.
●A minimum room height of 230 cm is required for the cabin installation work.
●A distance of at least 5 cm from the wall must be maintained.
●You need an assistant for the installation.
● Wood is a natural product that can swell, shrink or warp, despite good stor-
age. For this reason, some force may be necessary during the installation.
● All screw ttings must be pre-drilled.
Attention!
The electrical connection may only be performed by a qualied electrician.

Check the right angle:
Handle glass with care: Special care must be taken with the edges of
the glass – hardened glass can shatter into small pieces in the event of
impact. Insert protective cushioning (e.g: cardboard box) under the edge
of the glass.
Maintenance and cleaning
●The completed sauna should be cleaned with a damp cloth. Only use warm
water – no cleaning products.
Pitch pockets are to be expected, since they can always appear in
spruce wood and the depth at which they lie cannot be detected during
the sorting-out process.
If these are just under the surface, heat can cause them to soften and
“bleed”.
The leaking pitch can be removed with a rag soaked in acetone. If only
droplets of pitch occur, allow these to harden and then carefully scrape
them o󰀨 with a knife.
Disposal
●Dispose of packaging materials in accordance with the applicable
waste disposal regulations.

Assembling the cabin
1. Attach the two side base frame pieces to the rear base frame piece,
which has the cutout. Screw the side base frame pieces to the rear
frame piece as shown.
2. Begin the rear and side wall assembly using the rear and side wall
planks. Note that the side wall planks are pre-drilled and will be screwed
into the rear wall planks.
3. Using a mallet, tap each plank into the one beneath it so that the top
edges are level, then screw side planks to rear plank.
4. Continue to work your way up the rear and side walls, screwing the
side planks to the rear plank on each row.
5. On row six nd the plank with the vent cut-out and position as shown
and screw the vent cover over the cut-out. On row seven you will use
the side and rear planks that have the cut-out for the nal row. Be sure
the cutout is facing toward the interior of the sauna.
6. Position the vertical posts that are notched for the glass on the front
of the left and right side walls with the notch facing toward the inside
of the sauna.
7. Screw the side wall planks to the vertical posts using the pre-drilled
holes in each plank.
8. Place the aluminum glass supports on the oor and against the groove
in the vertical posts. Place each glass window panel in the groove on
the vertical post and into the aluminum support. NOTE: The window
with the pre-drilled holes is where the door will attach. Place this win-
dow on the right or left depending on which way you want the door of
the sauna to swing. The door will swing out.
9. Place the glass header above the windows and between the two side
walls. Fit into place so that the edges of the windows t into the groove,
and the ends t tightly against the two side walls. From the top of the
sauna, angle-screw the header into the vertical posts.
10. Attach the upper bench supports to the rear wall, using a level to be
sure the bench will sit at.
11. Place the lower bench upside-down and attach the legs to the lower
benches and secure to the bench as shown. Fit the pins from the 45°
support into the pre-drilled holes on the bench leg and screw the other
side into the underside of the bench.

Assembly instruction p. 8/18
12. Place one of the completed lower benches in the sauna and toward the
back wall. NOTE: The heater will be installed between this bench and
the rear wall. The bench is moveable to allow for access to the heater.
13. Set the front wall upper bench support panels perpendicular to each
side wall and near the window. Before securing the front bench support
panels, set the upper bench on top of the rear wall bench supports and
the front wall support panel. After ensuring the bench is level and tight
against all supports, screw the front bench support panels to the side
walls. From below, screw the front and rear bench supports into the
bench, and also screw the bench into the side walls.
14. Find the roof plank with the groove that is cut out for a light. Place this
roof plank against the rear wall of the sauna, the plank resting on the
notched top wall boards. Be sure the light cutout is nearest the rear
wall. Insert the light bar into the groove and run the cord out the back
wall through the notch that is cut out. NOTE: There are di󰀨erent light
bars for European and American designs; be sure you have the correct
light bar and power supply before installing.
15. Continue placing the roof planks on the top of the sauna using a mallet,
tap each plank into the other as you did with the wall planks. The last roof
plank is at on one edge and will t above the front wall header. Once
all of the roof planks are positioned, screw them to the wall sections.
16. Attach the vertical outside trim pieces on the 4 corners of the sauna.
Screw them into place from the inside of the sauna to conceal the screws.
17. Attach the hinges to the door and then the door to the window. NOTE:
There will be a gap between the door and windows as well as at the
oor. These are intentional to allow air to ow through the sauna.
18. Depending on whether your door will swing left or right, partially remove
the rubber seal at the top of the door to nd the pre-drilled hole for the
magnetic door catch. Trim back the seal and insert the magnetic catch,
tapping in into place with a mallet. Find the metal sleeve and slip over
the door where it will meet the magnet.
19. Follow the instructions for the heater for heater installation to the rear
of the sauna.
