Good morning Brekke,

We got an electrician to come out and replace the old Polar Stove with the new Finlandia Stove. The Polar was corroded, rusty and the wires inside were fried. The elctrician showed us all the wires that had burned. I’m enclosing a few photos we took of the stove. The Finlandia had to have a new hole drilled for the electrical cable because the Polar had the electricity coming in through the back and the new one had to have the cable come through the bottom, but the hole there wasn’t big enough, so he drilled a new hole. He had to add some wire to the cable and move a couple of bolts on the wall because the wall mount was slightly wider on the new stove. BUT… bottom line… we took our first good sauna in a long time this morning. I guess most people don’t take a sauna everyday, but we’ve been doing it for more than 30 years, so we were happy to get back in there.
Thanks for sending along the Finlandia so quickly. If we need anything else, I’ll email, but for now… a big THANK YOU is in order.

All best,
Jo L, Bainbridge Island, WA
