How do I clean my sauna heater?

Clean the wood-burning stove

You can clean the stove by removing all the ash. This can easily be done with a dustpan and can or by removing the ash pan completely from the stove. Bring an empty bucket where you can put all the dirt.
Clean the outside of the stove with a cloth and a simple home, garden and kitchen remedy or hot water.

Clean the stove window with tea

The stove window often requires some extra attention. Did you know that you can clean this with tea? Use a damp tea bag (just the bag from your last cup of tea is fine) and wipe the window clean with it. You can also dip a piece of kitchen paper into a strong cup of tea and remove the dirt with it.

Does this not work? No problem! There are also other options:

• Rub the window clean with some charcoal or ash from the stove (this has a strong cleaning effect).
• Use a special cleaner, such as HG stove window cleaner.

Clean the electric heater

An electric heater is less likely to get dirty, but it also deserves attention. Especially the buttons that you use to set the temperature can get dirty. Clean the outside with mild soapy water. Always make sure that the cleaning product is not too aggressive or corrosive.

Clean sauna stones

If you often pour odorous water over the stones, residues accumulate in the stove. That is why it is important to clean the sauna stones on average twice a year.

Here's how to go about it:

1. Remove all rocks from the stove.
2. Clean them with mild soapy water and let them dry completely.
3. Replace stones that are no longer cleanable.
4. Meanwhile, also remove the dust and dirt at the bottom of the stove with a dustpan and tin.
5. Do not put the stones back until they are completely dry.

Do some stones need to be replaced? Simply order new sauna stones so that your stove continues to perform optimally.
