1.1. Piling of the Sauna Stones
The piling of the sauna stones has a great effect
on both the safety and the heating capability of
the heater.
Important information on sauna stones:
The stones should be 2-4'' (5–10 cm) in
•
diameter.
Use solely angular split-face sauna stones that
•
are intended for use in a heater. Peridotite,
olivine-dolerite and olivine are suitable stone
types.
Neither light, porous ceramic "stones" nor soft
•
soapstones should be used in the heater. They
do not absorb enough heat when warmed up.
This can result in damage to heating elements.
Wash off dust from the stones before piling
•
them into the heater.

Please note when placing the stones:
Do not drop stones into the heater.
•
Do not wedge stones between the heating
•
elements.
Pile the stones so that they support each other
•
instead of lying their weight on the heating
elements.
Support the heating elements with stones so
•
that the elements stay vertically straight.
Do not form a high pile of stones on top of the
•
heater.
No such objects or devices should be placed
•
inside the heater stone space or near the heater
that could change the amount or direction of
the air flowing through the heater.
A bare heating element can endanger
combustible materials even outside the safety
distances. Check that no heating elements can be
seen behind the stones.
