EN Identification
General instructions
Please note that an optimal sauna climate can be achieved only if the
cabin with its air inlets and outlets, the sauna heater, and the control
unit are synchronized.
Observe the specifications and information provided by your sauna
retailer.
The sauna heaters heat the sauna cabin with heated convection air.
Fresh air is drawn in through the air inlet. It is warmed and rises (convec-
tion) and is then circulated in the cabin. Some of the used air is pushed
out of the cabin through the cabin's air outlet. This creates a typical
sauna climate in which temperatures of approx. 110°C are achieved
directly below the ceiling. These temperatures drop to approx. 30-40°C
in the cabin along the floor. Therefore, it is not unusual that if the tem-
perature sensor above the heater reads 110°C, the thermometer that is
mounted approx. 20–25 cm below the cabin ceiling on the sauna wall
reads only 85°C. When the max. temperature is set for the area around
the upper sauna bench, the bathing temperature is typically between
80°C and 90°C.
Please note that the highest temperatures in the cabin are always above
the sauna heater and that is where the temperature sensor and safety
temperature limiter should be mounted according to the installation
instructions for the control units.
The first time the cabin is heated, you may notice a slight odour result-
ing from the evaporation of consumables used in the manufacturing
processes. Air out your cabin once it has been heated and before using
the sauna.
