Re: sauna heater recommendations
I think, an electric sauna heater would be better than some other heaters. It offers a less maintenance and effort to use.

Re: sauna heater recommendations
Hello,
i want to buy a sauna heater from a local web site in Turkey.( http://www.malzemem.com/kategori/sauna-malzemeleri.aspx ) They say Harvia is the best heater in Turkey. There are Helo and Fintech as alternative. Price is not important endurance is important for me because my house is far from city center. What do you suggest?

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine.

Change the stones. One manufacturer recommends that if you use sauna bi-weekly, you should replace the stones every year.clockser wrote:Is there a special way to clean it? The one in my apartment smells to what I can only describe as toasting dust and I'm not sure of how to get rid of it. I've thought on taking the stones and washing them and then maybe try and clean the heating system, but since it will all be reaching very high temperatures I guess I can't use any kind of soap?

Re: sauna heater recommendations
Does anyone have experience with these “soft” sauna heaters? I like dry saunas, but my wife is less accustomed to sauna and she might prefer it. Also, the steam might be good for my (bad) lungs. Basically, would it be worth all the extra money?biscayne wrote:IKI KIUAS, it's fantastic. Keeps the temperature to about 65c, so you get a really steamy sauna which I love, the Finns desribe it a "soft" sauna, meaning not that it's for wimps, but that the steam from it is really good. I love it.
Re: sauna heater recommendations
are the stainless steel heating elements also coated with Teflon?
Re: sauna heater recommendations
Teflon coated heating element sounds like a bad idea, it melts at 327 degrees.morie wrote:are the stainless steel heating elements also coated with Teflon?

Re: sauna heater recommendations
Hi!
If you have a minimal amount of stones - like in Tylo, you can't get much steam "löyly" from the heater.
A Finnish sauna heater manufacturer used to have a Swedish Tylo heater installed in their premises for customer demonstrations.
They had heated the stones in Tylo, then poured a bucket of water on the stones (for "löyly") - and then they were immediately able to pick out with their bare hands all the stones from the heater!
- You'll certainly need enough stones in the heater to be able to enjoy your sauna.
