Daily maintenance of Orilax acrylic products.Shower Room Back
  1. We recommend you use a mild soap to clean all the acrylic surface, such as dishwashing detergent. Do not use corrosive or bleach based products. Use of these products will damage your shower and void the guarantee.
  2. To polish the surface you can choose polishing agent, and the surface can remain flashing.
  3. If the surface is scratched or scorched, please use 1200# sand paper to polish the spot, then polish with wet 2000# sand paper. The last step is to use polishing cream and soft cloth to burnish it.
  4. Please use the soft cloth to clean the plated parts only !
  5. When the surface of bathtub was scratched , please use 2000# sand paper to polish then wipe tooth paste and burnish with soft cloth to make it flashing.
   
 
Who has authorization to connect a heater to the main and change a broken resistor?Shower Room Back
All electrical appliances that are fitted with protective housing that is attached by screws to prevent dangerous live components from coming into contact with one another, must be installed and serviced, in compliance with the regulations in place, by a professional, authorized electrical engineer or any such other knowledgeable person.
   
 
Can we use the electric heater if one/some of its resistors is/are broken?Shower Room Back
A broken resistor should be changed immediately, as the ones that are still intact have to burn longer under the control of the thermostat, and a while later one of the remaining unbroken resistors may also break.
   
 
What sort of stone can be served as heater stones?Shower Room Back
Heater stones should be of a material that is as heavy as possible, dark in colour, and large in size for them to be able to store as much heat energy as possible. Heater dealers sell stones that are purposely intended for use as heater stones and which come from well-known suppliers, and whose composition and suitability are guaranteed. Stone material that is well-known and suitable for use in heaters includes: peridotite, olivine and olivine-dolerite. Heater stones must be arranged loosely to ensure there is good air circulation.
   
 
How often should the sauna heater stones be replaced?Shower Room Back
How often they are changed by and large depends on how much the heater is used. If it is an average of twice a week, the stones should be changed once a year. It is a good idea to rearrange the stones occasionally, as they tend to crumble with use, making the area more compact and therefore obstructing the free circulation of air. Good air circulation will ensure that the heater works properly and the resistors too will last a long time owing to lower temperatures at their surface.
   
 
What temperature is suitable for taking the sauna bathing? Shower Room Back
The temperature of the sauna must be one in which the user sweats while seated on the sauna bench and feels comfortable. There is no right or wrong sauna temperature as everyone has a different sensation of what suits him/her best, taking into account age and state of health. If the sauna temperature is high (80 - 100oC), the body will not sweat easily, even if you try to make the air humid by throwing water on the stones. With a low sauna temperature (50 - 60oC) it does not feel dry as you can use plenty of water to humidify the air. Bathers can bear to stay in the sauna and it feels comfortable and pleasant! With traditional basic heaters it takes a fairly long time to get the heater stones sufficiently hot and the sauna temperature can easily get too high. To keep the sauna at a suitably low enough temperature you must choose a heater which can regulate the sauna temperature as required by means of its air circulation valve.
   
 
Why should we keep safe distances from heaters? Shower Room Back
Safe distances are minimum distances from combustible materials that must be observed to prevent the danger of fire. The manufacturer gives the relevant safety distances based on studies and safety regulations, and they must not be reduced as that might create a fire hazard!
   
 
Does the electric heater remain the electric shock possibility? Shower Room Back
Electric heaters are safe to use when installed correctly. The Safety Technology Authority monitors the electrical safety standards of heaters and gives manufacturers and heaters a certificate of safety. Heaters may carry certificate labels from other countries. Heaters are connected to the mains supply in such a way that their touching metallic parts are earthed. Live components are prevented from coming into contact with one another as part of the design.
   
 
Can the heaters electrical circuit be fitted with a fault current protector to eliminate the danger of electric shock? Shower Room Back
A fault current protector is a device that monitors the currents in the equipments phase and zero conductors. The sum of the currents must be zero and if that is not the case the device will switch the heater off. This device can be fitted to the heaters electrical circuit, but it is not necessary as the heater is earthed and therefore sufficiently protected, and live components cannot come into contact with one another. A fault current protector might cause needless power cuts as, in the humid conditions of the sauna, the insulating material of the resistors might cause the current to leak into the heaters earthed metal components with the result that there would be no danger of electric shock if they came into contact with one another.
