7.
Center and square the back plate over the nipple. While
holding it in place screw the head on to the nipple hand
tight.
8.
Adjust the back plate and head to line up squarely.
Remove any excess silicone with rubbing alcohol.
NOTE:
The steam head has been designed with a 360
degree dispersion of steam to improve circulation and
to minimize the hotspots created with the traditional
steam heads. For maximum comfort the steam head
should always be located as far from the seating area
as possible. Should the location of the steam head
necessitate blocking the steam from a particular
direction to improve bather comfort, the supplied
deflector plate can be added to any of the three sides
shown to help divert the steam away from the bather.
The deflector is attached to the back side of the head
before installation with 2 stainless steel screws
provided.
1.
Make sure the 3/4” nipple protrudes beyond the tile
¼
" to
½
".
IMPORTANT:
If the nipple protrudes beyond
½
” the O-ring will
not make a proper seal and the nipple will have be adjusted.
2.
Wrap the threads of the nipple with pipe sealant tape.
3.
Make sure the head will line up in the upright position when
tightened. The head should only be firmly hand tight. Using a
wrench on the head may damage it. Screw the head on to the
nipple and see how it lines up. Once a proper alignment is
made remove the head.
NOTE:
If necessary the head can be repositioned by disas-
sembling the hub from the cover and selecting one of the two
alternate positions as shown in figure 1.
4.
Re-apply sealant tape if necessary.
5.
Place a bead of silicone around the pipe, sealing the pipe to
the wall.
6.
Place a bead of silicone around the back outer edge of the
back plate.
