PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a mist sauna apparatus for suppressing the propagation of mold inside a bathroom.SOLUTION: A heating operation by an air heating means for heating air and a circulating blower means for circulating the air inside the bathroom by air blowing is performed for the fixed time, the temperature of the air inside the bathroom and bathroom inner surfaces including wall surfaces is elevated, the mold is devitalized, and thus the propagation of the mold is suppressed. Whether or not it is an environment wherein the mold easily propagates is determined by a temperature detection means 10, a humidity detection means 11 and a bathroom ambient air temperature detection means 7, and the heating operation is performed only when it is needed.COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT【課題】本発明は、浴室内のカビの繁殖を抑制するミストサウナ装置を提供すること。【解決手段】空気を加熱する空気加熱手段および送風で浴室内の空気を循環させる循環送風手段による暖房運転を一定時間実施して、浴室内の空気および壁面を含む浴室内面を温度上昇し、カビを失活させることによりカビの繁殖を抑制する。また温度検知手段10、湿度検知手段11、浴室周囲空気温度検知手段7によってカビが繁殖しやすい環境であるか判定し、必要な場合のみ暖房運転を実施する。【選択図】図1
