Description
These rounded granite sauna stones compliment the artful design of HUUM sauna heaters and are selected for their ability to stand up to extreme heat variations. These rounded olivinie sauna heater stones are durable and have high heat capacity and resist fracturing.
Throwing water on the stones is how you regulate heat and steam in the sauna. The shape, size and composition of the stones and the way they are arranged make all the difference. We recommend rounded stones because they provide a milder steam. Thanks to the rounded shape the water can reach inner layers of stones and evaporate gradually instead of evaporating all at once from the top layer. Since they are very visible in HUUM heaters, you need both smaller and bigger stones to avoid big noticeable gaps. We also suggest laying smaller stones and more close together on the top to accumulate the heat better.
Sauna heater stones are a crucial component in creating the authentic sauna experience, playing a central role in the traditional sauna’s heat management and ambiance. Typically made from durable, heat-retentive materials such as volcanic rock, pumice, or granite, these stones are designed to withstand and radiate high temperatures over extended periods. When placed on top of a sauna heater, they absorb the heat generated and then release it gradually, providing a consistent and even warmth throughout the sauna. This process helps to maintain the optimal temperature for a soothing sauna session and enhances the overall thermal comfort.
