A comparison of two #sauna #kiuas (stoves). Heating up in winter conditions (around 0C or just under) in an outdoor timber building. After initial small load to get going:
* Old #Harvia Pro 36. During third load would hit 50C (still burning). Fill it up, head indoors to get drinks, undress etc and about 60C to start sauna
* #Muko #Veto 2 (small Helsinki company with lot of history). Reached 55C during first load (still burning). Fill it up, indoors. Back at the sauna and it's >80C

New #sauna #kiuas installed (#Muko #Veto 2) to replace the old #Harvia. But it was quite the smoke sauna when we tried it. Burning very slow and poorly (unless you open the door, when you get flames coming out the front). Smoke comes out the front and a bit from the flue-stove connection. So the flue is not drawing as it should. Outside for the pre burning things seemed to be working well. Otherwise the Veto heated up well despite the slow and bad burning and löyly nice.
Any tips to look at?

We need a new #sauna stove (#kiuas). I’ve wanted a #Veto one by #Muko of Helsinki for years. Tradition, quality, innovation, engineering. But sadly I see their prices have gone up massively. Has anyone ever had one? What stoves do you all favour?
The EOL one we have is a #Harvia Pro 36. Also been looking at #Misa.
