It is not permitted to burn treated wood, wood with nails, plywood, plastic, plastic coated
cardboard or paper in this stove. Fluid fuels must not be used even while starting the fire
to avoid dangerous flash fires. Do not burn full loads of very small wood such as shavings
and splinters, as they produce excessive heat for short durations.
The fuel logs must not be stored in the immediate vicinity of the stove. Remember the safety
distances. Only bring into the sauna as much wood as you can fit immediately into the fire
compartment.
6.2. Adjusting the air flow
The heater has been designed to function best when the negative pressure of the flue is
approximately –12 Pa.
When wood is burning, the provided damper plate must be kept fully open.
Use the ash pan to regulate the amount of primary air.
When lighting the fire, the door may be kept slightly open for a moment.
6.3. Adjusting heating efficiency
The amount of wood when stoking determines the heating efficiency.
Add wood before the wood burns into embers to maximise the heating efficiency of the
stones.
The heating efficiency is up to the quality and the amount of fuel.
Do not burn too long pieces of wood in the stove. (The optimum length is 30 cm)
6.4. Lighting
Open the damper plate!
Place small logs into stove parallel to the grate. Amounts and total per table (2).
Add kindlings under the logs and light them.
You can keep the fire door open for a moment while logs start to burn, opening the ash
pan 10mm
You may also light from the top, but ithen burning will be slower.
6.5. Stoking the furnace
Fill the furnace up with wood, when the first load of wood burns well.
Close the fire door and close ash pan about 5mm
Add wood, when there's one third of wood still unburnt in the furnace.
Normally, the sauna stove will be hot in 90 minutes. The furnace needs to be stoked three
times.
The sauna stones must be red-hot (the ones below the top stones) to clean the soot out of
the stones.
6.6. Finishing the heating
Towards the end, start using smaller pieces of wood in order to speed up burning of the
embers and to prevent the stones from cooling down in the embers stage.
Stop heating when the embers have gone out and the stones are red-hot
(the ones below the top stones)
You can check the stones by opening the top hatch. Look out for the hot air!
Shut the damper plate and scrape the crate clean into the ash pan. Empty the ash pan.
Use
a metal container with a lid. Shut the lid so that the hot ashes will not
cause a fire hazard.
6.7. Exhaustion of carbon monoxide
Before taking a sauna bath, the carbon monoxide needs to be exhausted. This is done by casting
