1. Quick instructions for use of the sauna heater
1.1. Check before taking a sauna bath
1. The sauna room is suitable for taking a sauna bath.
2. The door and the window are closed.
3. The sauna heater is topped with stones that comply with the manufacturer's recommendations, the heating elements are
covered with stones, and the stones are piled sparsely.
NOTE! Ceramic rocks are not allowed.
The heater's main switch is located at the bottom of the heater, on the right side as seen from the front.
The main switch is marked with a 0 – 1 sticker.
1.2. Operation of the sauna heater controls
Refer to the specific control panel operating instructions.
Rearrange the sauna stones at least once a year and replace any weathered stones. This enhances air circulation
between the stones, which extends the useful life of the thermal resistors.
If you encounter any problems, please contact the manufacturer's warranty service shop.
For additional information about enjoying a sauna bath, please visit our website at : www.helo.fi
2. Information for users
Persons with reduced physical and mental capacity, sensory handicap, or little experience and knowledge about how the
device is operated (e.g. children), should only operate the device while supervised or according to instructions given by
the persons in charge of their safety.
Make sure that children aren't playing with the sauna heater.
2.1. Sauna room
The walls and ceiling of a sauna room should be thermally well insulated. All surfaces that store heat, such as tiled and
plastered surfaces must be insulated. It is recommended to use wooden panel cladding inside the sauna room. If there
are heat storage elements in the sauna room, such as decorative stone, glass etc., note that these elements may extend
the pre-heating period even though the sauna room is otherwise well insulated (see page 6, section 2.6. Preparing for
sauna heater installation).
Installation and User Manual Himalaya DE 3

2.2. Recommended sauna room ventilation
Figure 1 Rekommended sauna room ventilation
1. Sauna room 3. Electric sauna heater 5. Exhaust flue or channel
2. Washroom 4. Exhaust valve 6. Door to the sauna room
7. A ventilation valve can be installed here to be kept closed while the sauna is heated and during bathing.
Inlet vent can be positioned in the A zone. Make sure the incoming fresh air will not interfere with (i.e. cool down) the
sauna heater's thermostat near the ceiling.
The B zone serves as the incoming air zone, if the sauna room isn't fitted with forced ventilation. In this case, the exhaust
valve is installed min 1m higher than the inlet valve.
DO NOT ISTALL INLET VALVE WITHIN ZONE C, IF THE SAUNA HEATER'S CONTROL THERMOSTAT IS LOCATED
IN THE SAME ZONE.
2.3. Heating the sauna
Before turning the sauna heater on, make sure the sauna room is suitable for taking a sauna bath. When heated for the
first time, the sauna heater may emit some odour. If you detect any odour while the sauna heater warms up, disconnect
the sauna heater briefly, and air the room. Then turn the sauna heater back on.
You should turn the sauna heater on roughly an hour before you plan to take a sauna bath, so that the stones have time to
heat up properly and the air warms up evenly in the sauna room.
Pleasant, smooth sauna bath temperature is about 70 °C.
Do not put any objects on the sauna heater. Do not dry clothes on the sauna heater or anywhere in its vicinity.

2.4. Sauna heater stones
Quality stones meet the following requirements:
- Sauna stones should withstand heat and heat variation caused by vaporisation of the water thrown on the
stones.
- Stones should be rinsed before use in order to avoid odour and dust.
- Sauna stones should have an uneven surface to supply a larger surface for the water to evaporate from.
- Sauna stones should be large enough, measuring about 80–120 mm to allow good ventilation between the stones.
This extends the useful life of the heating elements.
- Sauna stones should be piled sparsely in order to enhance ventilation between the stones. Do not bend the heating
elements together or against the frame.
- Rearrange the stones regularly (at least once a year) and replace small and broken stones with new, larger stones.
- Stones are piled so that they cover the heating elements. Do not, however, pile a large heap of stones on the
heating elements. For a sufficient amount of stones refer to Table 1 on page 7. Any small stones in the package of
stones must not be piled on the sauna heater.
- The warranty does not cover defects resulting from poor ventilation caused by small and tightly packed stones.
- Ceramic rocks are not allowed. They may cause damage to the sauna heater that will not be covered by the
warranty.
Installation and User Manual Himalaya DE 5

2.5. If the sauna heater will not heat up
If the sauna heater will not heat up, please check that:
- the power is on;
- the main fuses of the sauna heater are intact;
- is there any error messages on the control panel. In case of an error message on the control panel,
please refer to the control panel instructions.
THE PERSON INSTALLING THE SAUNA HEATER SHOULD LEAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AT THE PREMISES
FOR THE FUTURE USER.
2.6. Preparing for sauna heater installation
Check the following before installing the sauna heater.
- The ratio of the heater's input (kW) and the sauna room's volume (m3). Volume recommendations are presented in
Table 1 on page 7. The minimum and maximum volumes must not be exceeded.
- The sauna room height must be a min. of 1900 mm.
- Uninsulated and masonry stone walls extend the preheating time. Each square metre of plastered ceiling or wall surface
adds 1.2 m3to the sauna room's volume.
- Check page 8 Table 2 for a suitable fuse size (A) and the correct diameter of the power supply cable (mm²) for the
sauna heater in question.
- Conform to the specified safe clearance around the sauna heater. Please refer to page 7.
- There should be enough room around the sauna heater for maintenance purposes. Also a doorway can be considered
as a maintenance area.
2.7.Installation
Follow the safety clearance specifications on page 7 when installing the sauna heater.
The sauna heater is a floor-standing model. The base must be solid, because the sauna heater weighs about 115 kg.
The sauna heater is levelled by the adjustable legs.
The sauna heater needs to be fixed directly onto the wall or to the sauna bench module by using the provided metal rack
to make sure the safety distances will be maintained in use.
Walls or ceilings must not be clad with fibre-reinforced plaster board or other light-weight cladding, because they may
cause a fire hazard.
Only a single sauna heater is allowed per sauna room.

2.9. Connection of the sauna heater to the mains
The sauna heater must be connected to the mains by a qualified electrician and in compliance with current regulations.
The sauna heater is connected with a semi-permanent connection. Use H07RN-F (60245 IEC 66) cables or a
corresponding type. Other output cables (signal lamp, electric heating toggle) must also adhere to these
recommendations. Do not use PVC insulated cable as a connection cable for the sauna heater.
A multipolar (e.g. 7-pole) cable is allowed, if the voltage is the same. In the absence of a separate control current fuse, the
diameter of all cables must be the same, i.e. in accordance with the front fuse.
The connecting box on the sauna wall should be located within the minimum safety clearance specified for the sauna
heater. The maximum height for the connection box is 500 mm from the floor. See page 9 Location the connection box

If the connection box is located at over 500mm distance from the heater, the maximum height is 1000mm from the floor.
Sauna heater insulation resistance:
The sauna heater heating elements may absorb moisture from air, e.g. during storage. This may cause leakage currents.
The moisture will be gone after a few heating sessions. Do not connect the heater power supply through a ground fault
interrupter.
However, adhere to the effective electrical safety regulation when installing the sauna heater.
2.10. Electric heating toggle
Electric heating toggle applies to homes with an electric heating system.
Sauna heater has connections (marked N-55) for controlling the electric heating toggle. Connectors N-55 and the heating
elements are simultaneously live (230V). The sauna heater thermostat also controls the heating toggle. In other words,
home heating turns on once the sauna thermostat cuts power off the sauna heater.

2.11. Locating the connecting box for the connection cable in the sauna room
60mm = Specified minimum safety clearance
1. Recommended location for the connecting box
2. Silumin box recommended in this area.
3. This area should be avoided. Always use a silumin box.
In other areas, use a heat-resisting box (T 125 °C) and heat-resisting cables (T 170 °C). The connection box must be
clear of obstacles. When installing the connection box to zones 2 or 3, refer to the instructions and regulations of the
local energy supplier.

2.13. BWT technology in a Himalaya heater
BWT technology uses the heater's thermal energy to heat water and raise the moisture level without a separate
heat source. Moisturised air improves the sauna climate, and various fragrances and salts can be evaporated to
make the sauna experience more enjoyable.
A water tank with a lid is delivered with the heater; the tank can be installed in the wider gap between the heating
elements. The water tank can be installed when approximately 2/3 of the heater stones have been stacked. The water
tank, even when empty, does not need to be removed when the heater is on.
The tank has a capacity of approximately two litres. Bringing water to the boil when the tank is full takes approximately 1-
2 hours depending on the set temperature.
It is recommended to pour water into the tank when the heater is turned off. Water is poured through the grate on the lid.
You can pour less water into the tank if the bathing time is shorter.
The water tank must be removed and impurities, such as limescale etc. removed every so often. The stones surrounding
the tank must be removed during cleaning, so that the tank can be lifted more easily.
When the water is boiling, the moisture levels in the sauna remain high. This means that the temperature can be kept
lower while still experiencing pleasant heat. More heat and moisture can, if necessary, be created by throwing water on
the stones on top of the heater.
Mild fragrance essences, suitable for heater use, can be put in the water tank.
You can, for example, put mountain salt crystals on the lid of the water tank. They dissolve into the steam and evaporate
into the air. If mountain salt crystals are placed in the water tank, the salinity of the water will remain 26%.
