1. Never allow sauna to exceed 200°F (71°C). Check the thermometer inside of the sauna at least every 30 minutes. If temperature reaches over 200°F, immediately open the door and leave the door open until temperature drops to 180°F or below;

2. Limit sauna time to 20 mins at a time; 

3. Use a buddy system when using the sauna and avoid using it alone;

4. Do not allow children to use the sauna without supervision and limit sauna time to 10 mins at a time and/or reduce the sauna temperature (should not be used by children under the age of five years of age (5yrs);

5. Never allow anyone who has been drinking alcohol or using any kind of drugs (prescribed or otherwise) to enter the sauna;

6. We have implemented protocols for regularly cleaning and disinfecting: i) Before each delivery, the sauna will be completely cleaned and disinfected before delivered to you.

7. All Silver Creek Sauna Co. customers are strongly encouraged to follow these guidelines:) i)Sit on a towel during your sauna session, ii) make sure to maybe rinse off before the sauna session and cold plunge session to help keep any oils, lotions etc out of the sauna and plunge. 

8. Persons with skin, ear, genital or other body infections should not enter the sauna because of the possibility of spreading infection;

9. Persons with heart disease, diabetes, high or low blood pressure, any serious illness, pregnant women and any person with any doubt should not enter the sauna without prior consultation with a physician;

10. Do not operate any electrical device inside of the sauna. Electrical shock or electrocution can occur in a sauna if live electrical current (including current from a telephone) comes into contact with water, heat, and/or humidity. Use a “Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) on any appliance that must be near the sauna;

11. You and/or your guests will most likely be barefoot while near the sauna. Use only unbreakable dishes, beverage containers and utensils around the sauna and never use glass anywhere near or in the sauna.

12. To avoid slip and fall injuries, wear sandals or flip flops outside of the sauna. Watch your step when entering and exiting the sauna. Please rinse feet in our included foot rinse tub before entering the sauna: this helps keep the sauna floor clean and reduces debris.

13. Never use the sauna during a thunderstorm or when lightning is occurring in your area;

14. Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the Lessee to ensure that all users of the sauna are aware of, and abide by this safety information including anyone charged with the responsibility of controlling access to the sauna – even if only temporarily.

Your Silver Creek sauna Co. professional will arrive at your delivery time and place the sauna trailer in your chosen 8-foot by 20-foot flat space. The Lessee who has signed this contract should be present, and our professional will give instructions and answer questions. 

IMPORTANT: Before starting a fire, slightly open the ash pan about an inch. This is below the access door in front of the wood stove. This will act as your damper, and give the fire air, and help get it started. 

Starting the sauna is as simple as starting a fire. The stove access door is in front of the wood stove. 

1) Place an included fire-starter (Newspaper or birch bark) in the stove. IMPORTANT: Never use gasoline, kerosene, or any other highly flammable material as a fire starter.

2) Place small sticks, split logs, or other such kindling on top of the fire-starter (newspaper), and then place 1 or 2 standard pieces of firewood on top of the kindling.

3) Use a match or lighter to ignite the fire starter.

4) Make sure some of the kindling has ignited, then close the stove access door.

5) Wait 5 to 10 minutes, and you should see smoke rising from the chimney.

6) Open the stove access door and confirm that the fire has fully started.

7) Go back into the sauna and close the ash pan (damper) just a little bit. Closing the ash pan restricts some airflow to the fire if all the way closed the fire will go out. So keep it at a small crack that way the sauna will stay at the desired temperature for longer. The damper could be hot and could cause severe burns, so gloves or a damp towel are highly recommended when adjusting the ash pan (damper). This is where the Ash pan (Damper) will remain for this sauna session. (If the fire goes out and you want to start another session, repeat steps #1-6.)

8)Your sauna is now stoking! It takes approximately 1-2 hours for the sauna to reach 140-170°F, which is the desired range of temperature. Keep the sauna door closed!

9) During this 1 hour of stoking, you will likely need to add some pieces of firewood. Go into the sauna periodically during the stoking period and check the thermometer. Do not exceed 190°F.

10) Barrel saunas are heat-efficient and require only small amounts of firewood. Only add 1-2 logs every 30-60 mins to maintain the desired temperature during each session.

11) Limit time in the sauna to 20 minutes or less per sitting, cooling off outside, drinking water, and dunking in water to cool off between each 20-minute sitting.

Hydrate with water and Stay Steamy!
