If you are installing the unit or thinking of adding one on your next
project, you will need to make sure the unit is sized properly.
Calculate the shower area
(Length x Width x Height = Cubic Feet)
and confirm the ceiling height does not exceed 8 feet.
The set of numbers in the generator model number
represents the maximum capacity.
Model number can be found on the box or generator.
ThermaSol’s generators can be placed up to 50 feet from the
shower; in an attic, closet or below a sink are ideal locations.
Make sure the walls, ceiling and floor materials are suitable
for use with steam.
