After removing the outer packaging, check whether the product components are complete and whether they are damaged. Sauna Installation
Place the Bases
Make sure you have a level and steady base. Lay out your cradle pieces as
shown.Next, lay out the center stave on top.
Use
the tape measure to center out the middle cradle piece.
Using 2-1/2 inch screws, secure the center stave to the cradle.
When finished laying out the bottom staves, line them up flush with each other. Secure the bottom staves to the cradle as shown.
Install the Backwall
Next, lay out the back wall staves, including the corner pieces.
Grab your threaded rods. Thread the rods through.
Secure both ends tightly with a washer and nut for each hole.
Use vice grips or saw to safely snap the excess pieces off.
Hint : Make sure the holes in the back staves line up with each other.
With a friend’s help, lift the back wall and insert it into the grooves of the bottom.
Hint: Make sure both sides stick out equally to confirm they are centered.
Install the Front Wall
Next take all the front wall staves and lay them out as shown.
You should have 5 small staves between the corner and middle staves.
With help from your friend, slide the glass window into place.
Continue adding small staves on the other side of the glass window.
Now slide in the glass door the same way as the glass window.
For the other glass window, repeat the same process as before.
Hint : Make sure the glass door is facing the correct way. The head of the pin in the door should be on top.
Make sure the washer and nut are flush on both sides.
Slide in the remaining window.
Make sure the washer and nut are flush on both sides.
Secure both ends tightly with a washer and nut for each hole.
Use vice grips or saw to safely snap the excess pieces off
With your friend, lift the front wall and slide it into the bottom staves.
Hint: Make sure both sides stick out equally to know you are centered.
Install the Back Wall
With your friend, lift the back wall and slide it into the bottom staves.
Hint: Make sure both sides stick out equally to know you are centered.
Install the Sides and Roof
Gather your wall staves on both sides of the sauna walls
Follow the curvature of the bottom.
Use the rubber mallet to help position the wall staves, and 2-1/2 inch screws
to
secure them.
Follow the curvature of the bottom.
Use the rubber mallet to help position the wall staves, and 2-1/2 inch screws
to secure them.
Continue securing each wall stave with screws as shown. Before finishing both walls, bring in all your bench pieces as it will be much easier now, as opposed to after both walls are up. Assemble your bench pieces as best you can without securing them. Continue installing the other side of the wall
Hint: As this curve begins on this wall, DO NOT put screws in right now. First, bang the staves in until snug. Screw into the center stave. Then screw in the other staves.
Attach the canes to the top of the sauna using a step ladder.
Use a rubber mallet to install the roof battens and secure all the planks with
screws.
Take the roof membrane and drape it over the sauna as shown.
Using a staple gun, secure the roof membrane to the front and back of the sauna as shown. Use an x-acto knife to cut off the excess roofing membrane.\
Secure the roofing membrane on both sides with more staples.
Fold the membrane over, then staple it for best results.
Install the Trim
Install the trim, starting with the front of the sauna.
To keep the wood from splitting, pre-drill holes first as shown.
Then you may secure the trim with screws.
Install the Siding
Now it’s time to install your siding.
You can use staples or small nails no longer than 1-1/2 inches.
Start at the bottom with the top of a siding shingle flush against the groove
of the wall stave.
Make sure each piece of siding is 4 inches higher than the last. For this, use
a 4- inch long, 3/ 4-inch deep shim.
Secure each shingle along the bottom edge so that it catches the top of the
shingle beneath it.
Repeat the process for both sides.
When you reach where the roof membrane sets, secure a shingle underneath it.
This prevents water from getting between the siding and the wall staves.
Use an x-acto knife to cut the excess roofing membrane

Repeat with the inside as shown.
Repeat process with the inside door handle.
Place the towel hanger wherever it suits you.
Lastly, install the shelf.
Installing the HUUM Drop 7 Heater
- Before installing the Heater confirm that the maximum amperage of the main circuit breaker is properly rated for the Heater.
- When positioning the heater, ensure that there is a safe clearance between flammable materials and the external surfaces of the heater.
- When choosing a suitable location, ensure that you can conveniently throw water on sauna stones when sitting on the sauna bench. The top layer of sauna stones should be at the level of your feet when you are sitting on the sauna bench.
- When installing the wall mount, take the full weight of the heater, 143 lb (65 kg) into consideration.
- Attach the heater to the wall mount and ensure that it is securely fixed to the wall. Use the Safety Railing with brackets, if supplied.
- Refer to the mounting instructions that came with the heater.
Adding Sauna Stones
- Sauna stones with a diameter of 2-4 in / 5-10cm are suitable. It is recommended to use round stones in HUUM sauna heaters. Round stones complement the design of the heaters and provide milder steam.
- Choose stones that are specifically meant for use in sauna heaters.
- The Heater requires 121 lb / 55 kg of sauna stones.
- Wash off dust from the stones before piling them into the heater.
- Do not drop stones into the heater.
- Do not wedge stones.
- Due to large variation in temperature, the sauna stones disintegrate in use.
Rearrange the stones at least once a year or even more often if the sauna is in frequent use. At the same time, remove any pieces of stones from the bottom of the heater and replace any disintegrated stones with new ones. By doing this, the heating capability of the heater stays optimal, and the risk of overheating is avoided.
Using the HUUM Drop 7 Heater
If the temperature of the sauna room becomes dangerously high, the overheat protector will permanently cut off the supply of the heater. The overheating protector can be reset after the heater has cooled down. Prior to pressing the button, the cause of the fault must be found.
Sprinkling water on the Stones
The air in the sauna room becomes dry when warmed up. Therefore, it is necessary to throw water on the heated stones to reach a suitable level of humidity in the sauna. The effect of heat and steam on people varies – by experimenting, you can find the levels of temperature and humidity that suit you best.
CAUTION: If an excessive amount of water is poured on the stones, only part of it will evaporate and the rest may splash as boiling hot water on the bathers. Never throw water on the stones when there are people near the heater because hot steam may burn their skin.
Warnings
- Staying in the hot sauna for long periods of time makes the body temperature rise, which may be dangerous.
- Keep away from the heater when it is hot. The stones and outer surface of the heater may burn your skin.
- Keep children away from the heater.
- Do not let young, handicapped or ill people bathe in the sauna on their own.
- Consult your doctor about any health-related limitations to bathing.
- Consult your child welfare clinic about taking little babies to the sauna.
- Be very careful when moving in the sauna, as the platform and floors may be slippery.
- Never go to a hot sauna if you have taken alcohol, strong medicines or narcotics.
- Never sleep in a hot sauna.
- Sea air and a humid climate may corrode the metal surfaces of the heater.
Do not hang clothes to dry in the sauna, as this may cause a risk of fire. Excessive moisture content may also cause damage to the electrical equipment.
Operating Cautions
- Check all the circuitry and the plug connections carefully.
- Do not share the outlet with other electrical appliances to avoid danger.
- Do not use the sauna room if under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medications.
- Pregnant women or persons with poor health should consult their physicians before use.
- Minors should be supervised in order to prevent injury.
- Hyperthermia Danger: Prolonged exposure to hot air will induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6F (37C). While hyperthermia has many health benefits, it is important not to allow your body’score temperature to rise above 103F (39.5C). Symptoms of excessive hyperthermia include dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of excessive hyperthermia may include failure to perceive heat, failure to recognize the need to exit, unawareness of impending hazard, fetal damage in pregnant women, physical inability to exit the sauna, and unconsciousness.
- Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician prior to using the sauna.
- Persons using medications should consult a physician before using the sauna since some medications may induce drowsiness while others may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.
- Never sleep inside the sauna while the unit is in full operation.
- Do not use any type of cleaning agents on the interior of the sauna.
- If the power supply cord becomes damaged, it must immediately be replaced by the manufacturer or its agent or a similarly qualified person to avoid a hazard.
- Do not use the unit during an electrical storm, as there is a remote risk of shock.
- Altering or tampering of any electrical connections on the power supply will void the manufacturer’s warranty.
- Dry your hands before handling electrical controls. Never unplug the power cord or adjust the controls with wet hands or when you have wet bare feet. A danger of electrical shock exists.
- Do not attempt any repair without consulting the manufacturer first. Unauthorized repair attempts will void the manufacturer’s warranty.
- The sauna must use a GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI) on the electrical circuit.
Maintenance
Before using your sauna for the first time, clean the inside of the sauna with a damp cloth. We recommend cleaning the inside of your sauna regularly to keep it looking and working its best.
Never use chemicals inside your sauna! They can damage the wood and you may breathe them in when the sauna heats up.
After you’ve used the sauna, wipe up and perspiration with a dry towel and leave the door open so the inside can dry out. At regular intervals give the interior a sweep or vacuum. If you notice stains from dirt or perspiration, use warm water and gently scrub the spots, or a low-pressure washer with a wide-pattern nozzle and spray the spots.You can also buff away stubborn stains and scuffs with a piece of fine-grit sandpaper.
Be sure to keep the sauna away from any moisture or weather elements due to the electrical components and the wood being untreated and unstained which can cause damage to your sauna.
Like any outdoor structure, mold can develop as a result of moisture getting trapped inside the sauna. This is especially true for saunas as the bathers will sweat, releasing additional moisture into the air which can be absorbed into the wood. The key to preventing mold from forming is to ensure the inside of the sauna is dry.
After you have finished each sauna session, leave the door fully open so that the wood can dry out. The flooring can be lifted and placed outside to dry faster. Before closing the door, wipe the side of the sauna (walls/roof, benches, flooring, etc.) with a dry towel or cloth to remove any remaining moisture. If you are using your sauna regularly (i.e., multiple times a week), this ventilation should largely prevent mold formation. If you are not using your sauna regularly, run a dehumidifier and/or fan inside the sauna to keep air circulating (ensure you are emptying the dehumidifier water tank regularly). Also place desiccants (e.g., a commercial desiccant such as Damp- Rid or non-commercial desiccant such as charcoal briquettes/kitty litter) on dishes and place them around the inside of the sauna.
If you are seeing mold in the sauna, this should be treated early before it has time to grow and take hold. Clean the affected area to remove the mold. The wood can be cleaned with soapy water, white vinegar, or sodium bicarbonate (baking soda). If you are unable to remove the mold with these solutions, try stronger cleaning agents (such as diluted bleach) or sanding the area with sandpaper. Any rags, etc. that come into contact with the mold must be disposed of. Proper protective equipment (safety goggles, breathing mask, etc.) must be worn when removing mold.
