Pre-Installation Safety Instructions

Electrical Requirements
Each sauna requires a dedicated circuit when plugged into an outlet, meaning no other appliance should share the outlet/circuit with the sauna. Failure to comply with this requirement may cause electrical interruption and diminished performance.
It is recommended that a qualified electrician install your dedicated electrical wiring for proper sauna functionality and to avoid any potential electrical hazards. Please make sure the sauna is properly grounded, and that you select a dry location for the sauna installation. Do not expose the heater elements to any water sources as it may cause electric shock. Serious injury may result if proper electrical requirements are not met. For more details on your sauna heater, please refer to the separate heater manual.

Assembly Requirements and Safety Precautions
The sauna installation requires a minimum of two people (there are some steps where more people may be necessary). Before opening, confirm that the two crates are labelled with the same number (for example, “No.001 1 of 2” and No.001 2 of2.” Open boxes face up and be very careful due to fragile parts and glass.
Please keep the following safety precautions in mind during assembly:

  • Do not install any plumbing or plumbing fixtures in the sauna.
  • Keep all liquids away from the heating panels.
  • Install the sauna on a completely level surface.
  • Flammable objects and corrosive chemical substances should be kept far away from the sauna.

Usage and Maintenance Guide

Allow your sauna to warm up for 15-20 minutes or until it reaches 110° F (43° C). You may close the vent on the ceiling to speed up the pre-heating process. Drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration before and after the sauna session. It is recommended not to exceed 40 minutes per session.
If the sauna becomes stuffy, open the vent on the ceiling to allow fresh air into the sauna.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Use a clean damp towel to wipe off the bench, floor, and around the back panel after use.
Make sure to keep the sauna dry and clean. Do not leave towels or water glasses inside the sauna after use. Wipe the exterior surface of the sauna with a towel and clean the glass at least once a month.

Wood Care
If the sauna exterior body was scratched or scuffed, it can be concealed by using a small amount of furniture polish, oil, or other furniture treatment. Interior scratches or scuffs can be sanded if needed. Please avoid any treatment containing benzene or a high concentration of alcohol. Outdoor models need to be maintained on regular bases (between 6 months to a year) by polishing or resealing the body as needed.

If the varnish is cracked or worn off, sand the surface and re-varnish the affected area. Consult your local handyman or furniture repair professional for more details on how to maintain wood in an outdoor environment.
