Description
The Hile is Tulikivi’s slender wood-burning sauna stove, here clad in Rigata soapstone, horizontally grooved to give the surface a brighter look that can be emphasised with lighting. Its narrow body and a firebox door that can be hung to open on the left or the right make it easy to place in saunas of varied sizes and layouts. A clean-combustion firebox delivers 20 kW for sauna rooms of 8–20 m³, and the large stone compartment, holding 40–60 kg of stones within the soapstone casing, transfers heat efficiently for a long, soft steam. The flue connects from the top or the rear through a 115 mm outlet. Sauna stones and the flue kit are purchased separately, and an optional height-adjustable protective ring is available.

Installation
The Hile connects to the chimney from the top or the rear through a 115 mm flue outlet; the rear outlet sits 770 mm from the floor to its centre and the top outlet 175 mm from the rear edge. The chimney must be rated to thermal class T600 with a minimum draught of 12 Pa, and the stove can be connected to a brick flue or a ready-made flue. Keep at least 200 mm to combustible materials at the sides and rear, 1,000 mm at the front and 1,200 mm above the stove, and fix a protective covering over a combustible floor, extending in front of the firebox door. Installation must follow the installation manual in the Downloads tab and the local building regulations for solid-fuel appliances.
Sauna stones
The Hile takes 40–60 kg of stones, purchased separately; we recommend 60 kg (three 20 kg boxes) of 10–15 cm olivine diabase or vulcanite stones. Place the stones loosely so air can move between them.
