VENTILATION Ventilation shall be provided in a sauna, the air should be changed about 6 times an hour. This
can be achieved by making a vent opening (fresh air inlet) in the sauna wall directly below the heater. The air
outlet must be lower than the upper benches, as far as possible from the heater and about two feet higher than
the fresh air inlet vent, See Diagram 9.
The minimum opening should be determined using one of the following formulas:
For R<31, V≥9.4
For R≥31, V≥0.3R
where R = the floor area of the room in square feet and
V = the minimum vent size in square inches
SECTION 12 : VENTILATION
The sauna, like a bathroom, should be kept clean and odor free.
Towels or mats should always be used on benches and floor as perspiration otherwise penetrates the soft wood.
Air out the sauna often by keeping the door and vents open when the sauna is not in use. Saunas that are in daily use
should be washed down at least once a week to keep them clean and the air fresh. Duckboard should be removed
from the sauna, the sauna floor mopped and dried in a conventional manner, and the duckboard thoroughly scrubbed
and dried before returning to the sauna room. The sauna heater should be wiped down occasionally with a damp
cloth to remove lint and dust. The rocks should be removed once a year for cleaning and small or crumbled rocks
replaced.
To clean and remove perspiration stains, use soap or detergent in warm water, best applied with a scrub brush.
Badly soiled surfaces may require sanding. Sand paper wrapped around a wooden block works well.
Benches and supporting structure must be inspected annually for potential deterioration due to age, dry rot or
abuse. Any boards with signs of deterioration should be replaced immediately to avoid possible injury.
