Prepare your sauna installation

Fire department paperwork

Enter your details, equipment and installation site to prepare four attachments for a Japanese fire department filing.

You file the notice yourself. Obtain the main municipal form, such as the notice of installation of fire-using equipment, from the fire department responsible for the installation address. Before construction, ask them whether a notice is needed and which form, deadline, copies and additional drawings apply. These vary by location and equipment.

Your entries are processed only in this browser. We do not send or store them. Reloading the page clears them.

For electric heaters only, never wood or gas. The four documents are in Japanese. Leave unknown details empty; they will be visibly marked for completion.

Owner and contractor
Installation site
Cabin and heater

Choose a catalog cabin, or enter a model name and sauna interior dimensions. Entered measurements take priority. Measure the sauna room, not the surrounding installation room.

Domestic and overseas versions may have different power ratings under the same model name. Check the nameplate and current installation manual.

Ventilation and clearances

Enter planned or measured distances at the site. Catalog reference distances appear separately in the documents. This tool does not assess compliance.

Municipal guidance applies to its own area. Ask the fire department responsible for your installation address which filing and documents are required.

Preparing your fire-department paperwork

Prepare four Japanese attachments for an electric sauna: equipment, ventilation, heat source and installation summaries. Reference airflow is calculated from room volume using Q = V × 6.

The sources include Tokyo and Nagoya filing guidance and the HUUM manual. Six air changes per hour is a manufacturer guideline, not a statutory requirement.

Confirm the main form and additional drawings with the local fire department. Unknown fields remain marked blanks; the attachments do not guarantee acceptance or compliance.
