thus ensuring maximum heating of the steam room;
₋
closely
laid stones prevent convection and provide maximum protection from infrared
radiation
.
IMPORTANT! It is prohibited to use halite to fill stone heaters.
2.6. Heater operatio
n
IMPORTANT! Before each heating up of the heater, make sure that there are no foreign
objects in the firebox, ash drawer or in the chimney, and that there is chimney draft.
1.
Remove all unnecessary and foreign objects
from the firebox and chimney, remove ash
from the ash box.
2.
Put 3-4 logs on the grate
in such a way as to ensure free access of air to the combustion
area, namely: lay the firewood loosely, adjust the ash drawer gap to be within 50 mm
3.
Ignite the fi ewood
loaded into the firebox. The preferred ignition method is using
birch bark, wood chips and other natural materials, or using paper or throwaway
newspapers.
4.
Close the door.
5.
Partly close the ash drawer
after heating up of the chimney and development of
stable draft (usually after burning of the first load of firewood, approximately in 30-45
minutes), leaving a gap within 10 mm. It is necessary to constantly ensure sufficient
draft, while avoiding the development of excessive one (it can manifest itself as
humming of the heater, too erratic flame), that leads to heating of the firebox red hot,
which significantly reduces the heater service life. Control the draft by adjusting the ash
drawer gap.
6.
Close the ash drawer completely
after the air in the bath house heats up to a
temperature of 60-70 °C.
7. As a rule, 1-2 logs are enough
to maintain the temperature in the steam room.
In case
the temperature decreases, open the ash drawer and adjust the gap within 3-10 mm in
order to kindle the firewood (it takes more time, when the ash drawer is closed), and
close the ash drawer afterwards. If the temperature keeps decreasing, then adjust the
ash drawer gap within 3-10 mm and keep it until the temperature reaches 60-70 °C,
then close the ash drawer.
Bear in mind,
that excessive heating (for example, several
full loads in a row) leads to overheating and shortens the heater and chimney service
life, and can also cause a fire.
8.
When additional
fir
ewood is required,
open the door smoothly, without jerks. Load the
firewood and close the door. Adjust the draft.
9. After the completion of bathing procedures
prepare the room and the heater for
closing:
they are to be aired and dried. To do so:
•
Put 4-5 logs into the heater firebox, kindle them. Set the ash drawer gap to be
approximately 10 mm. Open the hatches/windows, that serve for airing, and the door
in order to develop a small draft.
Note: the air and the bath house to remain heated, the air to move barely noticeably,
i.e. it shall be quite warm and even hot in the bath house (up to 60-70 °C).
•
Heat up the bath house in this mode, the firewood will burn in approximately 30-45
minutes. Completely close the ash drawer after formation of active red coals. Close the
hatches/windows and the door, leave the bath house until next use.
•
The room and the heater to be periodically checked after such stokings: there shall be
