millon sinne heitetään vettä ?

[KasparHauser4]

Now are the stones heated by thewater coming from the hot water tank? If that is so, then why is there a vent above the stones?

[fipsfoxy]

@KasparHauser4

no :) ... remember the woodsticks/fire part from the beginning of the video... this heats the stones, the water tank is just a water heater. simple but as CTOL1 said, great use of resource

[JuL00006]

Super ! I love original Russia Sauna

[1xura]

@JuL00006 Sauna is from finland, i think. Im finnish too

[dycarbon1]

very informative! Thank you so much! =D

[CTOL1]

Great use of resource

Love the heat siphon water heater, no moving parts other than the water itself

This water heater concept can also be done with solar tubes in a window box...

Great video vorojtsov

What does that have to do with my comment?

Also, I'm studying Russian this year. So, I cant speak Russian worth crap, but in time perhaps!

[Sukraloos1]

That's a whole lot different way to use sauna than here in Finland. Here we just heat the damn thing to 100'C and toss some serious löyly, not forgetting the vihtominen :)

[flyhead2]

Do the Russians jump into cold water or beat themselves with birch branches like the Finns?

[vorojtsov]

Yes, absolutely! The advantage here is that the river is quite close and you can run to the river.

[rustaayy]

@vorojtsov no, they beat themselves with oak branches, never birch.

[eafanboyssuck]

i watch it and i understand

[flamablesteve]

Cold water isn't heavier, Its denser.

[frankabler]

He meant heavier per unit volume. I can sence that was what he was saying.

Ah, Banya with sexy Russian woman. I love Russia. Such memeories that I have of my travels there.

[flamablesteve]

I suppose so.

[MediumKuriboh]

Dry Sauna, that is interesting :D

[Darvinisti]

Its not dry if you throw water on to the stones. And I trust they do it in Russia just the same as in Finland.
