• Continue from the chimney valve with an insulated pipe. The insulated pipe section must

start at least 400 mm beneath the ceiling. Follow the installation and usage instructions

for Kastor chimneys.

Remember to keep all safety distances to flammable and non-flammable materials named

above. Helo Oy does not guarantee the suitability and functioning of other manufacturers’

factory-built chimneys with Kastor stoves. Helo Oy does not accept liability for the quality

of other manufacturers’ factory-built chimneys. The chimney must fulfil the requirements

of temperature class T 600.

2.7. The stove door and changing the opening direction

The opening direction is changed by turning the door upside down.

Changing the door's left/right-handedness:

• Open the door and push the hinge pin out of the lower hole.

• Pull the pin downwards out of the upper hole to release the door. Remember the

washers.

• Turn the door into the desired position.

• Slip the hinge pin first into the sleeve's upper hole and the washers on top of the sleeve

onto the pin. (The risers on the pin must be at the lower end.)

• Slip the door's upper hole onto the hinge pin above the sleeve.

• Finally, guide the hinge pin into the lower holes of the sleeve and the door.

2.8. Grate

There is a grate in the heater's stove. Place it on brackets on the bottom of the stove.

2.9. General directions to prevent damage

When you bring the stove into the sauna, before you add the stones, burn a full load of wood

in a well ventilated sauna to burn off the last protective substances and harden the

coating.

Kastor heater is ready to be used after burn-ins completed outdoors and indoors, and after

stones have been added.

Please read and follow the instructions below:

Wood quantities can be found in table (2).

• Remember to leave at least 10 cm of free air space as measured from the flame plate

downwards to aid the burning process.

• Do not heat immediately at full blast, if it is cold. The brick chimney might suffer damage.

• Do not throw water directly at the glass door.

• The stove’s operating life shortens, if it is constantly heated to a red glow.

• The stove’s working life will be shortened significantly, if it is subjected to salt water. Note

that in close proximity to the sea even well water may contain salt.The warrenty does not

• Factors influencing the stove’s useful life are, among other things, how well its size is

suited to the sauna, the fuel used, how often it is used, failure to follow these instructions

and general carefulness.

• Kastor stoves have been very carefully designed and tested. On the basis of our studies,

we at Helo Oy know that if the stove suffers damage in a very short time (e.g. the walls
