ATTENTION!
When covering the walls or ceiling with heat protection (e.g. with
mineral tiles), a sufficient ventilation gap should be left between the materials.
Installing tiles directly on a wall or ceiling surface can cause dangerous
overheating of wall and/or ceiling materials.
ATTENTION!
Check with your local authorities responsible for fire safety regarding
parts of the firewall can be insulated. It is forbidden to insulate flues in use.
DARKENING OF THE SAUNA ROOM WALLS
Over time, the wooden materials used in the sauna room may begin to darken due to
the high temperature. This is a natural process that does not pose a risk and is usually
caused by the darkening of the wood or the wood protection product used.
The darkening process can also be caused by the fine stone dust, breaking away from
the sauna stones and lifted up by the airflow. By following the manufacturer's
instructions when installing the sauna stove, flammable materials in the sauna room
may not become dangerously hot.
ATTENTION!
The highest allowed temperature for the wall and ceiling surfaces of
the sauna room is 284°F (140°C).
FLOOR OF THE SAUNA ROOM
Due to large changes in temperature, the sauna stones may crumble over time.
Together with the sauna water, particles released from the stones and fine stone dust
are washed onto the sauna floor. Hot stone chips can damage plastic covered floors
under and near the sauna stove. The splashes of heating stones and sauna water
(especially for iron-rich water) can be absorbed into the caulking of the tile floor.
In order to avoid aesthetic damage, ceramic tiles and dark joint filler should be used
under and around the sauna stove.
