Maintenance Tips

• Keep sauna stones loosely stacked to ensure proper airflow and even heat distribution.
• Re-stack stones regularly and replace any cracked, crumbling, or dust-heavy stones to protect heating elements.
• Clean stone compartment periodically to remove fine debris and mineral dust buildup.
• Inspect heating elements during stone maintenance for scaling or damage (always switch power off first).
• Ensure stones fully cover elements but do not compress them, as tight packing reduces performance.
• Wipe stainless steel exterior with a soft cloth after cooling to prevent water stains and corrosion.
• Keep ventilation openings in the sauna clear for safe operation and stable heating cycles.
• Check built-in control knobs (temperature and timer) regularly for smooth operation and accurate response.
• Do not exceed recommended sauna load or block airflow around the heater for safety and efficiency.
• Schedule periodic professional electrical inspection for long-term safe performance.
