THINGS TO CHECK BEFORE INSTALLATION
• Does the output (kW) match the volume (m3) of the sauna room?
See Table 1.
• In case there are any uninsulated brick, tile or glass walls in the
sauna room, an additional volume of 1.5 m³ should be added to the
sauna room for each such square meter of the wall.
• The suitable output of the heater will be determined based on that
volume according to Table 1.
• The producer’s warranty guarantee is invalid if the heater and
sauna room have been dimensioned incorrectly!
• Minimal safe distances between the sauna room’s ceiling and walls
to consider in installing the electric heater are listed in Table 2.
INSTALLATION
Positioning the heater
• The heater must be positioned in such a way that there is a safe
distance between flammable materials and the heater.
• The heater must be installed in a way that prevents people
from having physical contact with the heater or that dangerous
situations could emerge during the heating process.
• The heater holds approximately 250 kg of stones.
• The inputs of the power cable are on the bottom cover of the
heater.

* Subtract two 20kg boxes from the quantity given in the table in case your
heater has air-tunnel, as it fits less stones.
