Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sauna cabin, which can be used for four different functions such as: a shower cabin, steam sauna, medicinal herbal steam sauna and as a herbal bath with massage and jet effect, and only needs a floor area of 80 x 80 cm ready for operation.
  • the invention seeks to remedy this.
  • the invention solves the problem by bringing the water in the unpressurized water container, which holds approx. 10 liters, to the desired temperature and with the circulation pump, which works in the circuit, through the filter mixing vessel brought into the sauna tub - and distributed evenly over the entire sauna tub floor by means of the distribution nozzle with jet effect, which guarantees an even steam formation.
  • the advantages achieved by the invention can essentially be seen in the fact that water, electricity and medicinal herbs are used very sparingly.
  • the advantage is that the entire plug-in compact unit only occupies a floor area of 80 x 80 cm and can still be used for four functions as described.
  • Another advantage is that a drain pump (delivery head 150 cm) and water valves for cold and hot water are installed, which extends the installation options.
  • the hot water circuit is supplied with water at the beginning during the entire treatment period, only water loss due to evaporation is controlled by the level controller. At the end of the treatment, emptying takes place via pump 13 and hose 14.
  • a folding seat is mounted on the inside rear wall, which folds up automatically when not in use.
