Maintenance Tips

• Empty stones & re-stack (6–12 months): Keep sauna stones loosely arranged for proper airflow, fast heat-up, and efficient energy use.
• Replace cracked stones: Damaged stones reduce heat performance and can stress heating elements over time.
• Use clean, chemical-free water only: Avoid oils, salt, or fragrances to prevent buildup on stones and heating components.
• Check heating elements regularly: Ensure stones are not directly pressing on coils to prevent overheating and premature wear.
• Clean interior & vented body design: Wipe dust and residue to maintain airflow efficiency and prevent heat restriction.
• Inspect control system & thermostat: Verify smooth operation of mechanical or external controls for stable temperature regulation.
• Maintain proper ventilation: Ensure air intake and exhaust paths stay open for safe combustion-free electric heating performance.
• Wipe stainless steel exterior: Remove moisture after use to prevent corrosion and maintain premium finish.
