Cariitti Oy has launches a new heat and humidity meter for use in saunas

Finnish sauna lighting specialist Cariitti Oy has launched a new heat and humidity meter for use in saunas. The Aspectu meter comprises a wooden panel with an LED display showing the sauna’s temperature and humidity, as well as an hourglass so guests can time their stay.

While traditional sauna thermometers can become unusable if the pointer gets damaged, Aspectu’s electronic components are concealed behind the panel, which is set inside the sauna wall in a purpose-milled hole, so they are protected from accidental damage.

It is available in birch, hemlock and kelo plywood, with the birch option colour treated with a sauna-safe treatment. The company also offers Supi sauna wax in three colourways: Noki, Kuura and Kaarna.

“The meter’s light source reflects the thermal and humidity readings through the wood panel to the wall surface of the sauna,” says managing director Peter Ruokonen. “The readings seen by the sauna user is therefore equal to these lights forming on the surface of the wall panel.” www.cariitti.fi
