The HUUM UKU WiFi sauna control unit must be professionally installed and connected according to the manufacturer’s specifications. Electrical connection may only be carried out by a qualified electrician. This is particularly important because the control unit can be used with electric sauna heaters up to 18 kW and, depending on the system, a power supply of 3/N~400V or 1/N~230V may be required.
The control panel should be installed in a suitable place where it is easily accessible and not permanently exposed to strong heat or direct moisture. The main module, sensors and all connection cables must be installed so that they work reliably and cannot be mechanically damaged. The temperature sensor must be positioned correctly so that the control unit can accurately detect the sauna temperature.
The door sensor is particularly important for safe remote start. Before each activation via the app, the sauna must be in a safe condition. The sauna door must be closed. No towels, clothing, sauna fragrances, packaging or other objects may be placed on the sauna heater or in its immediate vicinity. Remote control may only be used when the sauna has been correctly installed, is free of obstacles and is ready for operation.
The child safety lock increases safety in everyday use. Once activated, it switches on automatically as soon as the display is deactivated. To operate the screen again when the child safety lock is active, the control knob must be pressed, turned to the right, then to the left and then returned to its starting position. This significantly reduces the risk of accidental operation.
The heating duration can be adjusted via the settings menu. The user can choose between 1, 3, 6, 12 or 18 hours as required. The default operating time is set to 3 hours. A delayed start can also be set. This function is convenient, but should only be used if the sauna has been fully checked beforehand.
For reliable use of app control, the HUUM app should be updated regularly. Activating automatic updates is recommended. A stable WiFi connection at the sauna location is also important so that control commands, temperature queries and notifications function reliably.
Additional functions such as lighting, ventilation or steam generator can be integrated into the system depending on the structure of the installation. These functions must be technically connected correctly and be suitable for the respective sauna. Improper installation can impair functionality and create safety risks.
