In the Sun Sauna video series, this time we install fibre lights in the sauna.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The fibre light is a versatile luminaire for sauna rooms. The light source can be mounted on the ceiling, on the ceiling tiles or even on a fixed water source mounted on the tiles. Fibre optic lights have become increasingly popular for sauna lighting and certainly one of the secrets of their popularity is the ease of installation and durability. Sun Sauna’s video series will help even a first-time user to install a fibre-optic sauna light kit. <\/p>\n

The roof fibres are installed in the ventilation field or behind the vapour barrier.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Make sure you don’t shoot a nail into the fibre.<\/li>\n
  2. Tape the fibres in place to facilitate installation and ensure fibre lengths.<\/li>\n
  3. Mark the positions of the fibres to be laid and drill holes in the fibre groove milled into the ceiling.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The board fibres for the backrests can be installed either as surface tension on top of the panel or behind the panel. If necessary, a fibre groove is always milled into the Sun Sauna decking. <\/p>\n

    Finishing and cutting of fibres<\/h2>\n

    The idea behind fibre lights is that the fibre bundles and the projector that feeds light into the fibres are not visible in the sauna.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Attach a fibre bundle underneath the boarding so that they are out of the way of cleaning and maintenance.<\/li>\n
    2. Cut off the excess fibre with a sharp carpet knife – fold the fibre slightly and press the fibre across. Do not use side cutters! <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Drill holes in the backrests for the fibres using the drill bit supplied with the lamp. Use a carpet knife to cut off the excess fibres, as you would with the seat cushions. <\/p>\n
