SECTION 5: MAINTENANCE OF YOUR AK STEAM GENERATOR
The steam generator, steam head, fittings and plumbing connections should be inspected regularly for water leaks and damage. The AK steam generator is supplied
with a manual drain valve for flushing sediments from the generator tank; an optional automatic electronic drain is available as an option. The autodrain option drains
and rinses the bath after each use. If only a manual drain is available, the steam generator should be manually drained periodically following the Flushing Procedure
shown here. This procedure should be scheduled monthly or more often depending on local water conditions and steam bath usage.
Flushing Procedure
:
The generator should be cool before starting.
1. Use the control to start a bath. Immediately go to the generator and open the manual drain (open is with the handle in line with the drain pipe, closed has the
handle pointing straight out over the side of the pipe).
2. Allow the tank to drain for a couple minutes then close the drain and allow the tank to fill for about 1 minute.
3. Open the drain again and allow the water to run with the drain open for a full 10 minutes with the bath turned on.
4. Use the control to turn the bath off then go to the generator. When the water stops flowing out the drain, close the manual drain valve.
