pH: 7.0 - 8.5
Silica: <13 ppm
Chlorides: <25 ppm
Chlorine: <0.2 ppm
Chloramine: <0.2 ppm
The best defense against poor water quality is a water treatment system designed to meet your water quality conditions.

Appliance to be installed with backflow protection according to federal, state or local codes.
The drain piping must consist of temperature resistant material, greater than 160°F, and be of adequate diameter not to cause flow
restriction. Improper materials may deform and cause restrictions, thus affecting performance.
Refer to electrical characteristics chart for voltage requirements of
each steamer.
Each compartment requires separate electrical & water connection.
As continued product improvement is a policy of Market Forge, specifications are subject to changge without notice.
