Electric Shock Hazard
- High voltage exists within this equipment. Disconnect all electrical power before
servicing the generator. All installation and service to this equipment should be performed by qualified
licensed personnel in accordance with local and national codes. There are no user serviceable parts in
this equipment.
Electrical grounding is required on all
AMEREC
steambath generators
.
The generator is designed for hookup with
copper wire only, 75°C or better.
Wire the controls exactly as described. Do not connect any additional wiring or power supplies to the controls or
their terminals in the generator.
Service only by authorized personnel!
All plumbing must be installed by a licensed plumber in accordance with all applicable local and national codes.
Install indoors only. Protect from freezing. Generator must be level side to side and end to end.
The pressure relief valve and generator drain must be installed in such a fashion that the risk of scalding is reduced
to a minimum. Draining these outlets into the steam room may present a scald hazard and may damage materials
used to construct the room.
Danger
To reduce the risk of explosions, do not interconnect t steam lines!!
Caution
The steam outlet carries hot vapor! A separate steam line is required for each steam outlet.
Do not connect a valve or shut-off in the steam line! Avoid traps and valleys in the steam line where
water could collect and cause a steam blockage. The hot steam line must be insulated against user contact.
Do not install the steam head near a bench or where steam may spray or where condensation will drip on the user
as this will present a scald hazard.
Be certain that steambath enclosures are properly sealed to avoid water damage from escaping steam. It is
recommended that 100% silicone caulk be used to seal all pipes and fittings. Steam must be prevented from
escaping into the wall cavity. Centering the steam pipe is critical in rooms made of plastic, acrylic, resin, fiberglass
or similar materials. Allowing the steam pipe to touch materials not rated 240°F (115°C) or higher will result in
damage to these materials.
