Can I throw water on the rocks?
Absolutely YES. This is one of the features that make it truly authentic.
How much water should you throw? It all depends on what you like. I, Mark, personally like to throw an equivalent of a cup of water spread out on the rocks every minute or so. I like lots of löyly. You might like less löyly and just enjoy sitting in the dry heat more.
The heating elements are designed for this purpose, but just like most things, they are not designed for abuse. So we don’t recommend dumping a full bucket of water on them. The main idea is to throw small amounts of water that spread out over the rocks, which creates the steam. It is also good to let the water evaporate from the rocks before you throw more water on.
Still deciding?
Tell us the size you are thinking about and where it would go. Mark or his son Joonas answers every message personally, and will tell you straight if a Ryt Sauna is the wrong fit.
