SAUNA HEATER WIRING AND HOOKUP
Important! Heaters with built in controls: Before
hooking up electrical wires to junction box of heater,
remove capillary tubing and bulb from junction box
and bring up wall to left or right side of heater.
Cover tubing with wooden molding provided, coil
up excess tubing, and place under heater close to
floor.
Refer to chart page 4 for proper wire size and am-
perage. See page 3 for required clearances. Any
wiring within internal Sauna walls must be rated
194°F (90ºC) and copper wire must be used. Run
wire through seal tight flex conduit from wall to
heater and connect to junction box at back of hea-
ter with 194°F (90º) connector. Connect to terminals
1 and 2 and connect ground wire to lug marked
ground. (Cover plate under heater must be remo-
ved first.)
SAUNA TIMERS
Heaters have a 60 min. timer (0 to large 1 on the
dial), and if you wish to use the full 60 min. cycle,
turn the timer knob past the first 1 to number 2
or 3 on the dial. Then turn backward to the large 1
until a click is heard. Leave knob at the setting, and
Sauna will operate for 1 hour before shutting off
automatically.
Allow at least 30 minutes for room to heat up to
an average Sauna temperature. Note!! If you set
timer past first 1, timer will not come on until the
time set has elapsed. The 60 min. timer is quiet. It
does not tick.
Have an added feature--an 8 hour time clock
(small 1 to 8 on the timer dial). If you wish to preset
your Sauna heater to automatically turn on when
uou are away, you may preset up to 8 hours in
advance of Sauna bathing.
For eg., if you set the timer knob at number 3
setting, the Sauna heater will turn on 3 hours later,
and will be ready for useage in 3 1/2 hours (allowing
for 1/2 hour heat up time). The heater will shut off
automatically in another half hour, and if you wish
to continue using Sauna, reset the 60 min. timer

Note! If connection to heater will be made at a later
time, bring flex into Sauna room 4–6" (100 – 150
mm) from floor, and leave 3' (900 mm) of flex for
hookup (can be cut to right length later).
Before testing heater, fill rock cavity with igneous
stones provided with heater and fasten metal rock
guard at top of heater. (See general info concerning
washing and placing of stones.)
Be sure to cover thermostat bulb with protecti-
ve metal cover by threading bulb through holes in
cover, and fasten bulb cover to wall with screws
provided. Also, take care when nailing protective
wood strips over capillary tubing, so that nails do
not puncture tubing. If punctured, entire thermostat
must be replaced.
back up to the large 1.
Have a heat control (thermostat) which must be
set between minimum and maximum heating, or
the timer will not cause the Sauna to heat. Put heat
control setting to maximum, heat Sauna for 1/2
to 1 hour to observe adequate Sauna temperature.
If room is too hot, adjust heat control knob back
toward minimum setting, until desired temperature
is reached.
