Sauna Not Working
Our Sauna stopped working a few years ago and we have tried
everything. Even contacted the manufactor to replace the electrical mechanism. Nothing worked.......so it has been sitting in my garage for a few years. It is in perfect condition, by looking at it...but not working. Any suggestions on what we could do with the sauna shell? I've thought about using it at a storage or changing room. Any other suggestions????? All reasonable suggestions are welcomed. Thanks. |

Find someone like a handyman, in your neighborhood and let them look at it in return for allowing them to use it. Saunas are not rocket science. A heating element, maybe a fan, an electric light bulb, and some sort of a timer. |

Sauna Not Working
Sounds like time to call an electrician.
As to alternate uses, you could fill the sauna with pasta and canned goods, for the up coming food price hikes we've been seeing. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org ..

Hi, Little more than that with digital control panel contolling temp. *and time. Basically what you are saying is correct. Ours has fancy digital readout control panel for temp settings and timer. I forgot the thermostat. But, anyone with a modicum of electrical knowledge could figure out how to bypass the timer and thermostat to see if the heating element worked or not. |
