The
ILO Radiant Electric Sauna Heater
ILO is a Finnish word for
"delight" or "joy".
Ideally, a sauna should reach its operating temperature in
less than an hour, and the
heater should maintain a rock
temperature far in excess of 212 degrees F (100 degrees
C) during use.
The ILO™ Radiant Electric Sauna Heater
heats
rock, not metal, and keeps it hot,
giving you a REAL
STEAM bath.
The heater size should be carefully matched to the room
size for most satisfactory
performance. An oversized heater will
bring the room air up to temperature and shut
itself off,
without having the rocks at a temperature required for stability. Too small a
heater will not maintain suitable
temperatures during use. The chart below will help
in
selecting the "just right" ILO for your sauna.

Tests have shown that, because a sauna is a tightly enclosed,
well-insulated room,
an electric unit is a more effective heater
than any other type because there is no heat
loss through a
chimney. The ILO's high efficiency cannot be equaled with
combustible
fuel. A good gas or oil sauna heater has an
efficiency of only 20 - 30%. The electric
heater in a
properly insulated room is 100% efficient. Therefore, it costs
only
pennies to operate.
Pictured is the Mark 2 control with
a "One Touch" and a
150 minute timer.
An absolute necessity for the "just right" sauna is the
room temperature. The Mark 2
constantly measures and
maintains actual room temperature, within one degree,
of
what you set on the display.
The range is from 80° to 210° F (26° to
99° C.).
Simply press "Power", and time or
temperature is displayed.
Set to the desired temperature and time, then touch "Set".
Just program it once, and each
time you use your sauna thereafter,
just press
"One Touch". Your previous sauna experience will
be repeated.
What could be easier?
A heavy duty magnetic contactor /enclosure is included
with the Mark 2 control,
designed for mounting outside
the sauna.
The electrical installation is extremely
simple and straightforward with
step-by-step
installation instructions.
Other manufacturers purchase controls that
are designed for multiple
uses and often
are assembled in other countries.
The ILO and the Mark 2 control are
manufactured on-site, so any
components are
available separately should the need ever arise.
Large rock capacity is a MUST for a REAL SAUNA
the ILO has more than any other heater!
Some of the features that make the ILO™ Radiant Electric
Sauna Heater the best
engineered and the best value in a
sauna heater are shown in this cutaway drawing:
