- Keep the Harvia 8kW stove area free of dust and inspect sauna stones regularly; replace cracked or deteriorated stones when needed.
- Clean the Full Spectrum IR emitters with a soft, dry cloth to maintain efficient heat performance.
- Leave the door slightly open after sessions to improve ventilation and help the interior dry completely.
- Check exterior waterproof stain and wood surfaces annually, especially in harsh weather conditions, to protect the outdoor structure.
- Inspect electrical connections and controls periodically; use a certified electrician for any service on the 240V system.
- Clean tempered glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner to maintain visibility and appearance.
- Avoid harsh chemicals, excessive water, or pressure washing inside the sauna to prevent wood damage and extend product lifespan.
