Adelaide Hills House Sauna:

The luxury sauna is located in the pool house and is for the exclusive enjoyment of our guests. While spending time in a sauna has health benefits, it is equally important to be mindful of your safety. Please read the following operating instructions for your own safety and enjoyment.

 
Do not consume alcohol or drugs during or after sauna use. Strictly no glassware, glass bottles or consumption of food is permitted in the sauna or within the glass fenced area of the swimming pool. Guests are encouraged to shower prior to and after using the sauna. The pool house has towels, indoor and outdoor showers and changing room facilities. The operating instructions for the sauna are:

Isolation Switch: The isolation switch for the sauna is located in the hallway on the wall to the right of the sauna door, just above floor level and below the sauna controls. Turn the lever UPWARD to the ON position. This will illuminate the sauna LCD Control Panel above (mind your head with the control unit above). 

Sauna lights: The light switch for the sauna is located on the wall directly below the sauna LCD Control Panel. Depress the white button to turn the lights on and twist the white button to dim the light to your satisfaction.

Start Heating: Press the power button on the sauna LCD Control Panel to turn on the heater.

Setting the Temperature: Use the temperature control to select your desired heat level, typically to 80°C (176°F). It takes up to 45 minutes for the sauna to achieve the desired temperature.

Maintaining the Temperature: The thermostat will automatically maintain the desired temperature.

Measuring the Temperature: The thermometer unit on the inside wall of the sauna may show a lesser temperature than what you have set on the control panel. The temperature on the LCD Control Panel is the most accurate temperature.  

Adjusting the Timer: Set the operating time for your session using the timer function. Do not set for more than 2 hours. The unit will switch off automatically after.

Safety Precautions: Do not touch the heater unit inside the sauna as it becomes extremely hot. Children under 18 years not permitted in sauna.

Never use the sauna to dry clothes or towels: Before activating the sauna heater, ensure that the sauna is free from objects on or near the heater.

Sauna Water: Once the sauna room is up to temperature, use the bucket and ladle, apply sufficient water to the hot rocks to create steam. 

Timer: Use the egg timer on the wall inside the sauna to regulate how long you spend in sauna. 10 minutes per sauna session is recommended. 

Drink water: Prior to and after time in the sauna.

Mobile phones: Adelaide Hills House takes no responsibility for mobile phones that are damaged as a result of being taken into the sauna.

Powering off: After your session, turn the isolation switch lever DOWNWARD to the OFF position (mind your head with the sauna control unit above). This will deactivate all activity on the sauna LCD Control Panel above. 

Adelaide Hills House Swimming Pool:

The heated magnesium freshwater swimming pool at Adelaide Hills House is for your enjoyment. With views across the Piccadilly Valley, it is a highlight for many of our guests. The swimming pool is set to a comfortable 29 degrees Celsius (84 degrees Fahrenheit) for 12 months of the year. Please do not adjust the temperature. 

To ensure your safety and that of other guests, please refrain from running and diving in and around the swimming pool. Strictly no glassware, glass bottles or consumption of food is permitted within the perimeter of the swimming pool fence. In the event that glassware is broken in the swimming pool, please note that guests will be charged AUD$2,000 for the draining and professional cleaning of the swimming pool. 

Guests are required to wear bathers and encouraged to shower prior to swimming. The pool house has indoor and outdoor hot showers and changing room facilities. Ensure that both safety fence gates remain closed at all times.   

The Dolphin pool cleaner unit is often located inside the swimming pool. If guests wish to remove this unit while swimming, it can be safely raised to the surface by using the power cord. Please leave the Dolphin unit by the pool. Once you have finished swimming, guests are encouraged to lower the Dolphin unit back into the water and to turn the unit on by pressing the large round circle on the control unit located on the pathway adjoining the pool house. The Dolphin unit will then immediately operate for 2 hours and for 2 hours each day thereafter. If guests wish to freshen up the pool themselves, there is pool cleaning equipment located behind the pool house including a brush to clean the stairs and a net to remove any debris. After use, please place this equipment back where you found it.  On occasion, the pool contractor may visit the property. This visit is necessary to ensure the water quality of the swimming pool.
