Why Olivine Diabase Sauna Stones?

Olivine diabase is a preferred material for traditional sauna stones because it offers excellent thermal mass and durability under extreme heat. Quality sauna stones store heat, help stabilize heater performance, and create the steam that defines the traditional sauna experience.

Using the correct sauna stones is important. Low-quality or improper stones can crack, restrict airflow, reduce heater efficiency, or create uneven steam. IKI Stones 44 are designed specifically for sauna heater use, helping protect your investment and improve each sauna session.

Why Split-Face Stones Matter

The split-face shape creates natural gaps between stones, which supports airflow throughout the heater. This helps the heating elements or heater core perform more effectively while allowing water to reach hot stone surfaces for quicker steam production.

The rough-cut texture also increases surface area, helping water vaporize efficiently and produce a satisfying löyly. For best results, stones should be stacked loosely rather than packed tightly.

What’s Included

• 44 lbs of 2″–4″ (5–10 cm) split-face olivine diabase sauna stones

Specifications

Installation & Use

• Rinse stones thoroughly before first use to remove dust and loose particles.
• Stack stones loosely to encourage proper airflow through the heater.
• Place larger stones toward the bottom and smaller stones around the upper areas.
• Avoid forcing stones tightly between heating elements.
• Do not use decorative rocks, landscaping stones, or stones not designed for sauna heaters.
• Inspect stones regularly and replace cracked, crumbling, glazed, or heavily worn stones.

When Should Sauna Stones Be Replaced?

Sauna stones naturally wear down over time as they are exposed to repeated heating, cooling, and water contact. As stones age, they may crack, crumble, or become less effective at holding heat. Worn stones can also restrict airflow inside the heater, which may reduce steam quality and overall performance.

For home saunas, stones should be inspected at least once or twice per year. Commercial or frequently used saunas may require more frequent inspection and replacement.
