Thank you for purchasing your Aston steam shower. We hope that it will provide
you with years of satisfying use and enjoyment. This instruction manual explains
the benefits of using a steam shower and provides installation, operation, and care

instructions for your new Aston steam shower.

Please read this manual carefully because it contains information and instructions

about the safe installation and operation of the unit. If you do not follow certain
conditions of installation and maintenance, your warranty may be affected.

Whether your unit is a standalone steam shower or contains an attached whirlpool

bath, we have designed the unit to provide you with a safe and relaxing

environment to refresh your mind and body. Since ancient times, the act of taking
a steam sauna has proven beneficial to promoting and living a healthy lifestyle.

Exposing your skin to the warm moist heat of a steam sauna will open your pores
helping you to expel dirt and toxins from your body while leaving your skin clean

and healthy. In addition, regular use of a steam sauna can be a relaxing time that
transports you from the hustle and bustle of daily life for a few moments.

Aston steam showers come equipped with many enhanced features as standard

equipment, thus eliminating the need to make costly upgrades.
