Some notes about care and renewal of Sauna Stones:

Sauna Stones have a tough life; gradually they break down, settle and compact in service, resulting in performance degradation and risk of causing premature failure of the heating elements. It's good sauna care to take them out and wash them periodically, at the same time removing any broken-stone debris etc from the stove heating chamber.

If the tops of the elements show "grinning" above the upper surface of the stones, it's usually a sign that the stones are in need of renewal - note also that this 'bare element' situation can present a fire or injury risk.

It's also a good plan to replace the stones whenever the elements are being replaced - if nothing else it saves doing the work of removing and replacing all the stones twice!

New Stones:

Always rinse new stones in a bucket of clean water before putting them into the Stove - this removes any dust and small flakes resulting from transit. Don't force them between the elements of electric stoves (better they are a 'loose' fit) to avoid undue stress on the elements when heated. Some stones may be 'left over' when the stove has been filled - keep them for use later, when the stones have settled. In general, it's better to have 'too many' rather then 'too few' stones, however avoid over-piling and the risk of hot stones falling off the stove in service.
