Installation requirements

To ensure safe use of the heater, check that the following criteria are met:

• Cable (EKK) or electrical ducting (Fk) for connecting the heater must be run on the outside of the heat insulation.

• The cables must be run correctly (see the Connection/wiring diagram section, Figure 17).

• The fuse size (A) and the power cable size (mm²) must be
  suitable for the heater (see the Connection/wiring diagram section, Figure 17).

• The sauna ventilation must comply with the instructions in this manual (see the Air intake valve positioning section, page 13, the Air exhaust valve positioning section, page 13).

• The position of the sauna heater, control panel, and sensors must comply with the instructions in this manual.

• The heater’s output (kW) must be adapted to the sauna’s volume (m³) (see Table 1). The minimum and maximum volumes must not be exceeded.

NOTE! A brick wall without heat insulation increases the warm-up time. Each square meter of plastered ceiling or wall surface equals an additional 1.2–2 m³ of sauna volume.

Table 1: Output and sauna volume

11. Minimum distance from interior fittings: 30 mm
12. Distance from floor: 100-270 mm (with legs: 100 mm)

Placement of the control panel

Where possible, placement of the control panel outside the sauna room is recommended due to lower ambient temperatures. The control panel may be placed inside a Tylö sauna room or a self-built sauna room with correct ventilation which operates according to Tylö-recommended ventilation (natural ventilation principle). Read the sections titled, Positioning the intake vent and Positioning the outlet vent in these instructions. The control panel must always be placed outside the sauna cabin if these requirements are not met. If installing the control panel inside the sauna cabin, it should be positioned with regard to safety distances and installation height, see Fig 6.

WARNING! With incorrect ventilation, a control panel fitted inside the sauna cabin may be exposed to excessive temperatures, which can cause the control panel to become deformed or defective. The ambient temperature around the control panel should never exceed 80°C

Figure 6: Safety distance/installation height, control panel

1. Heater
2. Control panel
3. Max. 800 mm
4. Min. 300 mm

Positioning the inlet vent

Install the inlet vent straight through the wall under the centreline of the heater. Vent size for a family sauna approx. 125 cm². The air circulation from the door must concord with the hot air circulation from the heater.

Figure 7: Positioning the air intake and exhaust vents

1. Inlet vent position.
2. Outlet vent position through the sauna wall.
3. Outlet vent position through the cavity.
4. Outlet vent position via a duct.

Positioning the outlet vent

DANGER!

• The air exhaust vent must not lead outdoors. This could cause the ventilation direction to be reversed, which may negatively affect the heater temperature cut-out.
• Any gap above the sauna ceiling should not be sealed without leaving at least one vent hole on the same wall as the sauna door!

Position the outlet vent

• at the maximum possible distance from the air intake vent, e.g. diagonally (see Figure 7).
• high on the wall or in the ceiling (see Figure 7).
• so that it vents into the space that the door and air intake vent open into.

The outlet vent must have the same area as the inlet vent. Ensure that the outlet vent is open. Mechanical ventilation is not recommended due to the risk of poor air exchange, which can negatively affect the heater temperature cut- out.

INSTALLATION
