Replacing sauna stones
Sauna stones are a product of nature. Sauna stones must be replenished or
reshuffled depending on the intensity of use.
The process of heating and cooling can make the stones brittle.
Particular damage to the sauna stones can be caused by aggressive sauna
essences, causing them to disintegrate over time. Small particles can break
free from the stones making the gaps between the stones smaller. This
means that hot air can no longer rise between the stones.
Depending on the frequency of use, sauna stones must be added or repo-
sitioned at least once a year. If used daily, the stones should be checked
and replaced every 2–3 months.
Use only natural sauna stones when you replace the old stones with new
ones. Due to their roughness, they produce a better water splash effect
than ceramic sauna stones. The stones should have a grain size of approx.
50–80 mm.
Reshuffling the sauna stones
1
CAUTION! Caution: stones may be hot. Allow the stones to cool for at
least 45 minutes before you remove the old stones.
Remove each stone individually.
2
Check each stone for damage. Sort out any stones with severe damage.
3
Rinse all stones with cold water.
4
Stack the stones loosely leaving sufficient space between them.
