Know before you buy
The stove is designed to be installed through a wall, allowing the firebox to be accessed from an adjacent room or outdoor area while the heat radiates into the sauna space. This dual-room configuration provides the convenience of refueling from outside the sauna while maintaining a clean, smoke-free environment inside.
Proper ventilation is critical for safety and performance. You must ensure a dedicated air intake for combustion and an exhaust vent to maintain air circulation, preventing oxygen depletion and ensuring the stove operates efficiently.
Yes, due to the nature of wood-burning appliances and the necessity of a compatible chimney system, professional installation is strongly recommended. You must ensure the stove meets all local building codes and fire safety regulations regarding clearance distances from combustible materials.
The ProWood features built-in mechanical controls that allow you to adjust the airflow and combustion rate. By managing the amount of wood and the air intake, you can regulate the intensity of the fire and the resulting temperature of the sauna room.
Yes, the stainless steel construction is specifically chosen for its resistance to the high-heat and high-moisture conditions typical of a traditional sauna. It is highly durable and designed to withstand the repeated thermal stress of wood-burning operation.
Absolutely. The stove is designed to hold sauna stones that, once heated, allow you to pour water over them to create authentic, traditional steam, known as 'löyly'.
