Steam Generator Installation
The Steam Generator should be mounted in a location convenient
for hook-up and service by the plumber and electrician.
CAUTION: The steam generator is designed to be used ONLY in
an upright and level position, to do otherwise would damage the
unit and void the warranty.
a) The Steam Generator can be mounted to a wall or set
on the floor. However, the unit must be secured. To
secure the unit to a vertical wall, loosen the two screws
holding the electrical access cover, remove cover (see
Figure 1). Located inside the cabinet near the top left
and right corners are mounting holes. Place top cover
back and secure.
b) Connect the 3/8" water supply, described in Section 2, to
the Steam Generator by first soldering a 3/8" valve into
the previously installed water line. The valve must be
kept in an open position during normal operation. In
areas where high water pressure may be a problem a
water hammer arrestor or a pressure regulator should
be installed. Complete water supply by connecting 3/8"
copper tubing from the valve to the water inlet compres-
sion fitting. Refer to Figure 2.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT use a “saddle valve” or piercing
type valve for water connection.
c) Connect the steam line from rough-in location described
in Section 2 to the ¾" nipple on the Steam Generator
using a union.
d) In the shower, place the center of the escutcheon
onto the steam pipe and screw the steamhead into
place. Care must be taken not to scratch the
steamhead or escutcheon with wrench. After the
plumbing connections are complete the electrician
may finish wiring the unit.

1. Make sure the ¾" nipple protrudes beyond the tile
approximately ½". (See Figure 3)
2. Wrap the nipple with pipe sealant tape.
3. Put a bead of silicone around the outer edge of the Back
Plate (see Figure 3) and center the Back Plate over the pipe
in an upright position. While holding it in place, screw the
Center Hub onto the nipple, using a
⅜
" hex key to tighten.
4. The Center Hub MUST be aligned with the four walls in the
vertical and horizontal position (See Figure 3a). Make sure
the steamhead O-ring is fully seated into the Back Plate.
If the nipple is sticking out too far the O-ring will not make
a proper seal and the nipple must be adjusted.
5. Apply a small amount of silicone at the back center point
of the Cover Plate.This will aid in preventing movement
of this plate. (See Figure 3a)
6. Place the Cover Plate over the Center Hub. This is
accomplished by first hooking the top and then snapping
the bottom into place.
7. Adjust the Back Plate and Cover Plate to line up
squarely, and clean excess silicone with rubbing alcohol.
