Canadian Shield Sauna Rocks 50 lb

Sauna rocks, also known as sauna stones, are a critical component of traditional and electric sauna heaters. These rocks are designed to withstand intense heat and rapid temperature changes. When water is poured over them, they produce the steam that enhances the sauna experience, helping to create a hot, humid atmosphere.

Specifications:

• Material: High-density igneous rock sourced from the Canadian Shield. 
• Heat Resistance: Capable of withstanding extreme temperatures (up to 500–800°C or more) without cracking or breaking.
• Thermal Mass: High thermal mass allows them to absorb and radiate heat evenly.
• Size and Shape: Irregular in shape, sizes range from 5 - 15 cm. This variation allows for proper air circulation and efficient heating.
• Steam Generation: When water is ladled onto hot sauna rocks, it instantly vaporizes into steam, increasing humidity and enhancing the sauna’s therapeutic effect.
• Maintenance: Keep sauna rocks clean and dust-free, and replace sauna rocks every 2-3 years for optimal performance.

Heater Capacity:

• Northern Electric Heater Capacity: 250 lbs | 113 kg
