Operating your sauna
How do I set up my ozone sauna for the first time?
Stand your ozone sauna in a ventilated room of at least 2 m by 2 m near a suitable wall socket, fill the bottle at the back with verified distilled water, connect the oxygen concentrator, then switch on at the wall, start the concentrator and switch the sauna on last. The operating manual for your model has the detail.
The operating manual that ships with your sauna has the button-by-button detail for your model.
Choosing the spot
- No plumbing is required, so you need a power outlet, floor space and ordinary ventilation.
- The minimum room we recommend is 2 m by 2 m; 3 m by 3 m or larger is optimal.
- Allow for the doors: the Standard and Deluxe are 680 mm wide closed and 1360 mm with the doors open. Saunas have to be uncrated to fit through a normal doorway.
- Leave room beside the sauna for the oxygen concentrator — the machine that separates oxygen out of room air to feed the sauna’s ozone generator — and for you to stand while a client gets in and out. The concentrator draws ambient air, so do not push it into a cupboard.
- Keep the floor dry. Spilt water near the concentrator or the wiring is the one hazard we call out by name.
Power
Total draw including the concentrator is 1,750 W. Power: 220 V / 10 A. For the 110 V versions (ordered from the international section): Red Light 110 V / 13.5 A; Standard and Deluxe 110 V / 11 A. The oxygen concentrator runs on its own separate socket (300–450 W). A 110 V sauna needs its own dedicated circuit. Before delivery, ask a qualified electrician to confirm that your circuit and socket can carry the sauna’s rated current continuously. We supply the sauna with the plug for your country. Check that your supply matches the nameplate on the sauna before the first switch-on.
Before the first switch-on
- Fit the water bottle at the back of the sauna and fill it with verified distilled water.
- Connect the concentrator to the sauna’s ozone inlet and stand it on a dry, level surface.
- Switch on at the wall, then the concentrator, then the sauna, in that order.
- Preheat the empty sauna with the doors closed before anyone sits in it. The first preheat of the day takes 10 to 20 minutes depending on the room.
What ships with each sauna is listed in the what’s-in-the-box section of that model’s product page. If an alarm sounds on the first run it is the air-flow alarm: check the concentrator is running and the tubing is clear.
