The patented double side vents and multi-stage thermostat in every Tylo heater
make them the most efficient and best performing heaters on the market.
Solid cast Stainless Steel top, inner casing, and stone compartment make them the
most durable heaters that money can buy.
Other innovations, such as a generously proportioned stone compartment, and Tylo's unique Thermosafe covering, which keeps the front of the heater at a safe 104 degrees F, make Tylo the very best choice for sauna heaters. Surprisingly, the prices for these heaters are about the same as the pricing for heaters of much lesser quality. Except where noted, all heaters are 240 VAC, single phase. Three phase heaters and 208 VAC heaters are also available. |
|
Sport Model Heater The Sport model heaters, available in sizes from 4 kW to 8 kW, are the most econonomical, even though they include all of the features mentioned above. The controls are built-in to this heater, at the bottom. See below for full specifications. |
|
SuperSport Model Heater The SuperSport model locates the controls more conveniently than the Sport model by placing them on the face of the heater near the top. Available in sizes from 4 kW to 8 kW. See below for full specifications. |
|
|
Deluxe Model Heater The Deluxe model heaters are designed with the commercial installation in mind, and are available in sizes ranging from 7 kW to 16 kW. They feature a completely separate control panel, which is typically mounted on the outside of the sauna, so that an attendant can control it. Three different control panels - one mechanical and two digital - are available for all models. See below for full specifications. |

|
The TS model control uses a thermostat with a standard capillary bulb, and
supports the energy saving multistage feature. It is housed in a splash proof
box and offers a temperature setting, 60 minute timer and pilot light.
The CC50 is an all electronic, digital control. It features remote or touch control operation, supports the multistage feature and boasts displays for time and temperature. It can also be connected to an external switch or central control computer. Other features include a switch for manual or automatic control of the sauna lighting, and a security code to deny access to unauthorized users. The CC100 is a more advanced version of the CC50. In addition to all of the features mentioned above, the CC100 also sports a clock, a memory function with unlimited back up power, and a seven language display. The special energy-saving stand-by function, as well as a far greater programming flexibility, make this control ideal for large public establishments.

KL16 Wood Fired Sauna Heater |
Wood Fired Heaters Ask a Scandinavian sauna enthusiast about sauna, especially an "oldster", and he's likely to tell you that a sauna with an electric heater is not a true sauna. This is because the Finnish tradition of loyly, or sprinkling water on the stones, is integral to the genuine sauna experience, and most other sauna heater manufacturers have not kept this in mind when designing their electric heaters. With their extra deep stone compartment and patented double side vents, Tylo electric heaters compensate as best as possible for the lower capacity for loyly typically found in electric heaters as compared to wood fired heaters, and for this reason, they're the best choice when a wood fired heater is not feasible. |
KL16VE Wood Fired Sauna Heater with Water Tank |
|
For a truly genuine sauna experience, however, many purists argue that a wood
fired sauna heater is a necessity, and the Tylo brand is the best wood fired
heater that you can buy! As the Swedes that make these fine heaters put it,
"it takes you back to the good old days of Grandpa's
childhood."
The firebox in these heaters is designed to channel the exhaust around the stone compartment, providing for the quickest increase in heat and the highest stone temperature. Three models are available, suitable for saunas of anywhere from about 300 to 600 cubic feet (9 to 16 cubic meters). Tylo's wood-fired sauna stoves have a unique heat retaining design. The high quality is immediately evident from the weight and the thickness of the steel that make our wood-fired heaters second to none. The rear wall of the fire box is protected by a hot-air deflector for more efficient combustion and reduced wood consumption. And the materials too are the best possible: stainless steel, alu-zinc steel and sturdy structural steel. All our wood-fired sauna stoves have an ash hatch, grate shuttle and rear/top flue connection options, as well as a hatch of Ceram special-grade glass, which can withstand temperatures of up to 800 C. The fire casts a warm glow through the glass, creating a wonderfully cosy atmosphere in the sauna. The standard model KL-16 measures about 19" by 17" by 28" high (49 cm. x 44 cm. x 71 cm.) and weighs about 121 lbs. (55 kg.) without sauna stones. The KL-16R measures the same but has an outer casing fabricated in stainless steel. The KL-16VE has a front mounted water tank, measures about 27" by 17" by 28" high (68 cm. x 44 cm. x 71 cm.) and weighs about 132 lbs. (60 kg.) without sauna stones. Each heater is supplied with a generous amount (about 120 lbs.) of stones and provides for a 4 inch (102 cm.) flue connection. |
|
And now for something completely different... Although it seems illogical to us to use a wooden sauna for steam, we can't deny the popularity of the Tylo Combi unit. Standard sauna heaters heat air and stones in "dry" mode. For a "wet" sauna, water is sprinkled on the stones. In this traditional sauna mode, temperatures range from 160 to over 200 degrees F (70 to 100 degrees C), with humidity in a range from 5 to 35 percent. |
|
|
The Combi unit, however, can operate as both a sauna heater and a steam
generator, in the latter mode producing clouds of water vapor and an
environment ranging from 90 to 150 degrees F (44 to 65 degrees C) and a
humidity in the range of 40 to 65 percent. The Combi sports all of the features of the Tylo sauna heaters above and also includes a top quality stainless steel water container with an electronic low water level cutoff. The built-in controls on the Combi unit allow you to switch bathing mode at any time, with automatic and manual on/off options and electronic programming of bathing mode, time, humidity and temperature. Two models - a 7 kW and an 8 kW - are available. |
