Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Cozy TW 12 kW and 18 kW models?
The Cozy TW 12 is designed for sauna rooms from about 210 to 423 cubic feet and uses at least 265 pounds of stones. The Cozy TW 18 is sized for larger rooms from about 317 to 635 cubic feet and requires at least 353 pounds of stones. If your sauna is larger, has more glass or tile, or is in a colder climate, the 18 kW model is usually the better choice.
How does a thru-wall sauna stove work?
A thru-wall sauna stove is installed in a masonry or brick wall between your sauna room and an adjacent space. You load firewood from outside the sauna, and the heater body and stones sit in the sauna room. This keeps the interior cleaner and makes it easier to tend the fire without opening the sauna door as often.
What kind of wall opening do I need for the Cozy TW?
The stove is installed in an opening in a concrete or brick wall. For the 12 kW model, the minimum opening width is about 255 mm and the minimum height from the floor is about 440 mm. For the 18 kW model, the minimum opening width is about 315 mm and the minimum height from the floor is about 470 mm. The maximum wall thickness is 150 mm. Always follow the manufacturer instructions and local code.
How many stones do I need and what type is best?
The Cozy TW 12 requires at least 265 pounds of sauna stones. The Cozy TW 18 requires at least 353 pounds. Use natural sauna stones such as olivine or peridotite in the recommended size range. Avoid river rocks or decorative stones, since they can crack or shatter under high heat. Many installers buy an extra box of stones so they can choose ideal shapes for airflow and fit.
How long does it take to heat the sauna?
Most saunas reach bathing temperature in about 45 to 75 minutes depending on room size, insulation, stone loading, and wood quality. The 18 kW model usually heats larger rooms more quickly due to its higher output and larger firebox.
Does the Cozy TW require a chimney?
Yes. A certified wood-burning chimney system is required. Use metal flue pipe and chimney components that are rated for wood-burning sauna stoves and that comply with local building and fire codes. Professional installation is strongly recommended for safety and performance.
Do I need professional installation?
Professional installation is highly recommended. A qualified installer will cut and finish the wall opening, configure the chimney system, verify clearances to combustibles, and make sure the stove meets local building and fire safety requirements for wood-burning appliances.
