A. The installation shall be made with a

connector that complies with the standard
for connectors for movable gas appliances;
ANSI Z21.69.CSA 6.16, and a quick-
disconnect device that complies with the
standard for quick-disconnect devices for
use with gas fuel, ANSI Z21.41.CSA 6.9.

B. Adequate means must be provided to limit

the movement of the appliance without
depending on the connector and the quick-
disconnect device or its associated piping to
limit the appliance movement.

Connection(s)

Install a check valve to prevent back

flow 

in the incoming cold water line, as required
by local plumbing codes. Water pressure
in the line should be between 30 and 60 PSI. If
pressure is above 60 PSI, a pressure regulator
will

be

needed.

These

pressures must

provide the

1.5 gallons

per

minute

required for

proper steamer function.

A

3

/

4

inch female NH connector (garden hose

type) is used to attach the water supply to the

inlet valve.

M

inside

diameter

of the

water

feed line is

inch.

Use

a washer

in the

hose connection. Do not allow the connection to
leak, no matter how slowly. Do not over-tighten
hose connections.

This equipment is to be installed to comply

with the basic plumbing code of the Building Officials 

and Code Administrators International, Inc.
(BOCA) and the Food Service Sanitation Manual
of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

NOTE: Local code may also require check 
valves in the water supply line.

5. Drain

Connection

Level the steamer front to back, and pitch it 
slightly to the rear (maximum

1

/

4

inch) by

adjusting the optional legs or the bullet feet on
the optional stand.

ARNING:

DO NOT CONNECT THE DRAIN DIRECTLY TO
A BUILDING D

RAIN. BLOC

KING THE DRAIN IS 

HAZARD

OUS.

There must be a free air gap between the end of the 
hose and the building drain. The free air gap should 
be as close as possible to the unit drain. There must 
also be no other elbows or restrictions between the 
unit drain and the free air gap.

CAUTION

D

O NOT USE PLASTIC PIPE. 

DRAIN MUST BE

RATED FOR BOIILING WA

TER.

Install the drain line with a constant downward pitch.

IMPORTANT

:

D

o not allow water traps in the line. 

A

 trap can cause pressure in the cavit

y, which

may cause the door gasket to leak.

P

roper Drain 

Line C

onnection –– Drain 

Line

must have a constant downward pitch of at least 

1

4

” per foot. 

O

bserve local code regarding air 

gap spacing and drain connections.5.

In Canada, the installation must conform to the
Canadian Gas Code, CAN 1-B149, Installation
Codes for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment
and/or local codes.
