Model 104480
The steam head is supplied with an optional faceplate. It
is not required for the functional operation of the steam
head. The faceplate is a decorative accessory and is
available in (8) finishes.
An optional Escutcheon (remodel plate) is available for
purchase, it's larger than faceplate and is available in (8)
finishes.
In
STEP 4
, instead of positioning the steam head face
to be flush with the finished wall face, position the steam
head so that the steam head face will be 1/8” recessed
with the finished wall (see Fig. 4). This will provide
clearance for the faceplate.
Apply silicone to the front of Linear Steam Head and
firmly press the faceplate against the face of the steam
head. Secure the faceplate as required until the silicone
sets.

on page 4 to complete the
installation.
1. Determine the desired installation location of the control.
The iSteam®, iTempo™ and iTempo/Plus™ controls are
designed to be installed inside or out-side the steam room
as a matter of personal prefer-ence. If the control is installed
inside the steam room the control must be located:
2. 4-5 feet above the floor near the bather seating area
3. The control features an integral temperature sensor. Locate
the control in a location representative of the desired
steambathing temperatures.
Do not locate the control above or near the steam head or
direct steam emissions.
4. On a vertical wall
The control cable length is 30 feet. Insure that the control
and/or steam generator are located accordingly. An optional
60 foot cable is available, PN 103990-60 for iTempo and PN
104117-60 for iSteam. Contact a MrSteam technical service
representative if a 60 foot cable is required.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If the control is installed outside the
steamroom a Remote Temperature Probe Part Number MSTS
must be installed inside the steam room, depending on the
control. Insure MrSteam steam generator is iSteam or iTempo
compatible and has a serial number 900000 or higher. If
iSteam is used with a generator having serial number less than
1174000, contact MrSteam technical support for an upgraded
PC board.
See instructions for the MSTS Temperature Probe (located in
the Control Installation Manual related to your specific control
package) before rough-in or installation of control.
