What are electric ovens

Furnaces are designed for different conditions. They are used in both small family saunas and commercial baths. Therefore, stoves differ in their characteristics. But the principle of action is the same for everyone.

Characteristics, how much electricity the device consumes

One of the important characteristics of the equipment is power. It depends on her which room the stove can effectively heat. The power and approximate dimensions of the steam room are indicated in the product passport. As a rule, 1 kW is enough to heat 1 cubic meter of sauna.

Electric ovens can be rated for 220 V or 380 V. This point must be taken into account when choosing the right model.

The furnace body is made of stainless, carbon or galvanized steel. The first one lasts longer, and therefore is preferable. But she has a drawback: "stainless steel" is more expensive.

Photo 1. Electric sauna stove made of stainless steel.The stone is fenced with a net.

Galvanized steel emits harmful substances when heated. Therefore, it is used only on the outer part of the furnace body, which does not heat up so much. Carbon steel is more heat resistant. But it quickly begins to corrode, especially at the junction with the legs or body parts between themselves.

Often the case is covered with heat-resistant paint or enamel. Sometimes it is sheathed with stone - soapstone, serpentine, etc.

Important! The stone building not only looks better. Such an oven retains heat longer, and the radiation becomes softer.

Device: housing, heating elements, steam generator

The electric sauna heater includes components such as:

• heating elements;
• a case designed for a certain volume of stones;
• Remote Control;
• steam generator.

The furnace body consists of two layers of steel, between which there is a free space. It serves to distribute heat more evenly.

Attention! Before switching on, be sure to fill the body with stones. Without them, the heating elements will overheat and start a fire.

The console can be built-in or remote. Sometimes both options are used. The remote control is connected to the oven with a wire protected from heat and moisture.

Almost all control options allow you to set the temperature and operating time. Some have the ability to program and turn on time.

There are other options, for example, different modes of operation, configuration via the Internet, etc.

The steam generator is not present in all models. Water is added manually or automatically. And in some ovens, containers for aromatic oils are additionally built in.

When switched on, the heating elements heat up. From them, the heat passes to the stones and the steam generator (if present). Sensors monitor the temperature and give a signal to stop heating as soon as it reaches a certain level. When it lowers, the oven starts working again. It is also configured to turn off after a certain operating time.

Important! Sensors located not in the stove itself, but at some distance from it, work more accurately. But the wires going to them must be reliably protected from the effects of temperature and moisture.

Electric sauna heaters from popular manufacturers

Harvia brand products are compact in size and consist of a dozen series of ovens. An interesting recent development is the triangular shape of the Harvia electric heater for use in a sauna in order to save space. It is fireproof, the work is controlled by the control panel. The manufacturer highlights the presence of a compartment in the steam generator for aromatic oils.

Harvia wall-mounted electric bath and sauna stoves are produced for family and commercial purposes, which differ in volume and power.

When choosing a model, it is important to know that 2–3 kW is enough to heat a steam room of 4 m3. Devices up to 6 kW operate from a standard network

Depending on the design, prices for electric sauna stoves range from 5,000 to 60,000 rubles. Wall-mounted - within 6,000, a family heater - 15,000-30,000, and for commercial purposes - from 40,000.

Helo sauna heaters are no less popular. There is no infrared radiation, increased thermal insulation will not allow you to get burned on the body, it is allowed to be placed 10 mm from the surface of the walls, they have triple fire protection and a special series "Fitness" for health procedures in spas and fitness clubs. The equipment has increased power to ensure continuous operation, many modes and special functions for aromatherapy and other procedures. The cost of an electric furnace with a power of 6 kW is up to 3,000 rubles, 8 kW - 30,000–40,000, and for volumetric saunas at 10.5 kW - 60,000–80,000.

The availability of hot water for washing is an important factor.Eos has a range of wall-mounted electric heaters and stoves with a sauna tank. For the convenience of pouring liquid, there are taps on its left or right side in order to choose the option that matches the location in the steam room. The cost of Eos ovens is more expensive than that of competitors - from 35,000 rubles.

Electric ovens of the Swedish brand Tylo are distinguished by the absence of bath stones. Heating takes place with the help of electronic equipment. They maintain the temperature of the steam room without additional energy costs, have the function of reproducing the last mode, a water tank and a compartment for oils are included. The price, depending on the power, ranges from 15,000 to 70,000 rubles.

Buyer opinions

Reviews about electric sauna heaters are contradictory, but mostly positive:

“I have a Harvia electric oven - several modes, with remote control, there is a water tank. One downside is the increased power consumption. I bought a triangular one, since the bath is cramped, I put it in a corner. Installation is not laborious, easy to use.

Maria Zolotareva, Moscow.

“And I have Sawo. Chose with lining. It retains heat longer and the body does not heat up, you will not burn yourself. I advise you to install the stove on the wall, it saves space and makes it easier to clean the room.”

Petr Vasiliev, Samara.

“I bought a Helo electric oven. The uneven distribution of heat and the air in the sauna is a bit dry - I was disappointed. But I liked the oil holes and the heater setting for any hand using the bracket mount. And the main plus is the absence of a chimney, soot and smoke.

Svetlana, St. Petersburg.

Peculiarities

To create warmth and comfort in the room, it is not necessary to lay a capital stove or install a fundamental fireplace.

How to use infrared sauna

Before visiting the infrared sauna, you need to familiarize yourself with the following rules:

- to increase the amount of sweat removed, it is necessary to take a hot shower immediately before the procedure;
- in order for the effect of the sauna to be maximum, you need to abandon the procedure immediately after eating;
- since a person sweats profusely during a visit to an infrared sauna, you should drink enough liquid not only before the procedure, but also during it and upon completion;
- before the procedure, you should not use cosmetic oils and lotions;
– when visiting the sauna, you should use at least 2-3 towels: one is used for sitting, the other for wiping sweat;
- at the onset of a cold, you can increase the time of the procedure, which will enhance the functioning of the immune system;
— as soon as the body has adapted to infrared saunas, you can gradually increase the time of procedures up to 40-45 minutes;
- those who have a large accumulation of heavy metals and toxins at first have difficulty sweating while visiting the sauna. In some cases, you have to visit the IR cabin 5-10 times to get the effect

But regardless of this, it is important not to reduce the amount of fluid consumed in order to avoid intoxication, since harmful components will still leave the body through hair, urine, etc .;
- for deeper heating of a certain part, it is necessary that it is located closer to infrared devices. Therefore, if it is necessary to warm up the legs and ankles, they should be raised;
- when the procedure is over, you need to sit still for 3-5 minutes, since at this time, as a rule, blood circulation increases, and sweating also increases.

An electric furnace is beneficial because

An electric sauna stove weighs negligibly little (from 45 kg and above - without stones) compared to its overweight brick "relative" (from 1000 kg and above). This allows you not to worry about the device of an individual deep foundation, because an ordinary hard floor is suitable for installing the unit.

Doesn't take up much space

The miniature size of the electric heater allows you to easily fit it into the smallest steam room. Even a powerful stove, designed to heat a large room, looks elegant and compact, and therefore significantly increases the usable area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe recreation area.

Interesting and rationally designed

The electric sauna stove is installed on the floor, hung on the wall or placed in the opening of the partition. Moreover, modern models make it possible to creatively “play” with the space in the steam room, because along with simple wall-mounted electric heaters, there are corner and “center” units.

The original design of certain types of braziers also looks interesting: there are grid ovens, thermos ovens, ovens with a lounger. The unusual shape and "image" make them a spectacular room decor.

Produces fast results

Within half an hour, your steam room will be ready to receive guests. An electric heater is a high-speed powerful "machine" with high efficiency (over 80%), while taking into account the high cost of the energy resource used. To prevent excessive consumption of electricity, the oven quickly heats up the room and goes into standby mode, monitoring and sensitively responding to the boundary temperature drop.

"Smart" modern electric furnace also ...

Provides convenient control of work

Resting in the dressing room, you can monitor the "weather" in the hot zone using a remote LCD screen. The simplest models involve control by pressing a button on the case, and the readiness of the room is signaled by a signal light.

Guarantees safety

Electric sauna stoves are deprived of the most dangerous element of classic sauna equipment in terms of fire safety - the chimney.It was because of her that a lot of solid wooden steam rooms burned down, where the owners slightly deviated from the rules for arranging an outlet channel through the ceiling.

The electric heater provides for automatic shutdown at the slightest suspicion of an emergency, in addition, when installing the unit, a current leakage control device is provided in the wiring circuit.

Offers additional features

With the help of an electric heater, you can diversify your sauna leisure. The latest models offer a transition from the “Russian bath” mode to the “sauna” mode, while the built-in steam generator is responsible for generating steam.

But remember that in order for your “assistant” to work for a long time and reliably, you should strictly adhere to the rules for operating the unit. For example, do not pour cold water on stones, protect the adjacent walls and floor with a screen, and fence off the stove from visitors.

Power calculation

Calculating the power of an electric stove is easier than a wood stove. The manufacturer indicates the power in kilowatts in the passport. The consumer can only determine the volume of his steam room in order to navigate. But! There is a formal volume, and there is an adjusted volume after adding coefficients - for example, for surfaces without thermal insulation, for heating adjacent rooms in winter, etc.

So, tiles, glass, stone - you need to calculate their surface area, multiply by 1.2 and add to the formal volume.

We consider the glass door to the steam room separately - just add an extra one and a half cubes to the existing numbers.

Then it’s simple: for one kilowatt of furnace power - one cubic meter of steam room space, if there are heating elements in the stove, and one and a half cubes if there are tape heaters.

How to use the sauna sauna and the rules of visiting

Before going to the sauna, you should wash yourself well, preferably with soap and a washcloth, and then dry yourself dry. Take with you either a special cap for your head for a sauna, or a loose woolen cap, or a cotton handkerchief. Also take a sheet or a large towel with you. After that you can enter.

You should not build a hero out of yourself, and sit in the sauna for half an hour, the first entry should be no longer than 9 - 10 minutes. The most optimal position is considered to be lying down, on a taken towel or sheet. Basically, our body tries to tell us everything, and if you feel that your heartbeat and breathing has increased, it means that you better go out and cool down. You should not run out headlong when you feel such symptoms. Before going out, sit down, lower your legs, and sit in that position. This is necessary so that your head does not spin, which occurs due to the redistribution of blood.

After the first entry, plunge into cold water. For some people, a gradual entry is suitable, and for some a sharp one, determine what suits you and do it constantly.

The second time you enter, you can stay there for about 12 minutes. After that, it is advisable to go to a cold shower, then sweep it to a warm one, you can even wash your hair with shampoo. It will be very useful to drink herbal tea with lemon (you can also without it, as you like).

The sauna is very similar in its effect on a person to a Russian bath. Going to the steam room, any person will feel some stress on his heart and lungs. If we compare a steam bath and a sauna, we can say that in the bath itself the temperature reaches 40-50°C, and the humidity reaches 100%. It is advisable to visit the bath for more seasoned people who have good physical fitness. While the sauna can accommodate less ready people, it can be people who are recovering from an illness, the elderly, older people, or vice versa - children (but do not take a child with you if he is not yet three years old). The temperature in the sauna rises to 80-100°C.

That is why, if you want to build your own sauna, do it by analogy with log cabins.Wooden buildings, which are called log cabins, are the best and most suitable materials for building a classic sauna. Therefore, when starting construction, first of all, choose the right logs for yourself - this will be the right choice. Did you know that sometimes when building baths, builders may not use a single nail.

In general, if you have not yet introduced such a tradition to yourself, then quickly call your closest friends and go to the sauna. Such a pastime will not only bring you joy, but also have a good effect on your health. And if it really becomes a tradition, then your body will harden, and you will generally forget about health problems.

Installation of an electric furnace in a sauna

Of course, an electric heater is far from being as demanding as a wood-burning (and even more so brick) stove. She does not need a foundation or a chimney, many models can generally be mounted on the wall, and some can even be hung from the ceiling! However, some preparation is still needed.

Where the heater will stand, it is better to lay out the floor with tiles or otherwise make it non-combustible (put a sheet of metal, for example). Suspended structure is not needed.

You will find the minimum distances to the main surfaces in the oven data sheet. Usually they are small, but they should be observed exactly or in the direction of increase.

But if there are practically no questions regarding the installation of the furnace itself, then this cannot be said about its connection.

Rules for visiting the Finnish sauna

Before entering the sauna it is necessary to carry out preliminary preparation. First take a warm shower. In this case, you can not use soap and do not wet your hair. After a shower, you need to wipe yourself with a towel. Next, you need to warm your feet in a basin of warm water. Then they put on a wool cap and enter the sauna room. There, a terry towel is spread on the shelf, since it is best to lie down in the sauna. The legs are placed on a stand. After that, you can mentally disconnect from all problems, relax and unwind. Before leaving the sauna, you should take a sitting position and sit like this for about 2 minutes. The first run is carried out on the lower shelf for no more than 10 minutes.

It is necessary to accustom the body to a high temperature gradually, for the first time you can limit yourself to a session of 2 to 3 minutes.

To increase perspiration on the second or third entry, 2-3 minutes before leaving the steam room, it is recommended to give steam, for which water or herbal infusion is poured onto hot stones, but not more than 0.5 cups. Visits to the sauna should be alternated with cooling - this is either a walk in the fresh air, or dousing with cold water with a temperature of 15 - 18 degrees Celsius. The total time spent in the sauna should not exceed 30 - 35 minutes, after which you need to rest for 20 - 40 minutes in a lying position.

If you feel tired during bathing and sauna procedures, it means that you have exceeded your norm of thermal exposure. In this case, the procedure should be shortened.

After leaving the sauna, it is recommended to do a self-massage.

Rating of electric sauna heaters

Well, we have considered a number of models on different grounds. It would be nice to bring the information together to make it easier for the reader to make his choice. Therefore, we decided to invite users to take part in the compilation of the rating, this time - electric sauna stoves.

For our part, we have selected a list of the most popular manufacturers, because it is important to know who you can trust, and the parameters of the steam room and the needs of all consumers are different, it is not possible to take them all into account. But by joint efforts, we can quite help beginners with a choice

Now is the time to move on to practical matters. Let's start with those that are asked by those sauna owners who have already decided to buy an electric heater. They need to know how to pick up a stove with the right parameters.

Connecting an electric stove in a sauna

The fact is that each sauna owner must independently take care of the grounding of the purchased unit. If you are not particularly versed in electrics, then entrust the connection to professionals, it's worth it.

It has already been said above that electric heaters come with different voltages. For those that can be included in a regular network, nothing needs to be changed in the wiring. But for those with a voltage of 380, it is already necessary to stretch a cable of the appropriate quality and thickness.

So grounding. It is better to make its circuit separate for the sauna, and not use the switchboard circuit. This is not so difficult - the Internet is full of information on how to make a ground loop yourself. It is preferable to lead the core through cable channels.

In addition, it is possible to recommend connecting the stove to the network not directly, but through a device that ensures that the appliance is turned off in the event that a short circuit occurs or the air in the steam room is overheated. Such a device is not needed if a differential machine with a leakage current of 30 mA is installed.

Most models provide a choice - built-in or remote control. In the second case, you will have to take care of connecting the remote control as well. Usually the owners put it either at the door or in an adjacent room.

Sensors for electric ovens allow you to control and manage heating. They also require installation, but all of its points should be described in detail in the installation instructions for your furnace.

A separate question is what wires can be used to connect the electric heater. If the oven is designed for 220 volts, then the wires will be three-core, if 380 - five-core. An important issue is the sheath of such wires. The fact is that vinyl is in no way suitable for your purposes. It is correct to use wiring with rubber insulation, which is not afraid of high temperatures.

*** So, we will assume that the short course of the future owner of the electric heater is completed. Health to you and a pleasant stay in your own sauna!
