WARNING:
Reduced performance or failure of the
SteamerGard™
system due to improper
installation, improper maintenance, or improperly treated feed water is not covered under the

exceeding 80°F, 80 psi, or 1200 ppm (mg/I) of TDS will void the manufacturers warranty.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Locate the
SteamerGard™
Model WT-90 on a wall, in a dry area, with access to a cold water supply
(preferably softened) and a drain. The location should provide easy accessibility for future filter changes and
service. On a level horizontal line, where the top of the unit is to be located, mark two points 11 3/16" apart. Drill a
5/16" hole at each mark. Insert the anchors supplied and tap flush with wall. Remove the two screws securing the
front of the
SteamerGard™
cover and remove the cover. Align the two mounting holes on the back plate of the
unit chassis with the two anchors and affix the system in place with the two 10 X 1 1/2" SS screws. Replace the
SteamerGard™
Cover and secure with screws. Ensure that the unit is level.
2.
Locate the
storage tank
in any convenient place between the
SteamerGard™
unit and the steamer.
Generally, the storage tank is located near the
SteamerGard™
unit. The storage tank sets on the floor, and does
not need to be secured to the floor. The storage tank should be within 50 feet of the steamer, unless the next
larger size polybutytene tubing (1/2") is used. Screw the shut-off valve (supplied) onto the threaded connection of
the storage tank, then screw the tee (supplied) onto the valve.
3. Locat
e
the control panel
on a wall near the steamer and position it to be within reach and with access to a
cold water supply. Carefully holding the control panel against the wall, mark the four mounting hole locations that
will provide a level installation. Drill four 5/16" holes at the marks for mounting the panel. Insert the anchors
supplied and tap flush with wall. Secure the control panel to the wall using four # l0 x 1-1/2" screws and washers
into the four hollow wall anchors (or most appropriate method). Ensure that the control panel is level and adjust as
required.
4. Cold Tap Water Feed Line
to the
SteamerGard
™
Unit:
In accordanace with accepted plumbing methods, the
SteamerGard™
unit should be plumbed from an existing cold water supply (3/8" minimum) using a tee and a
shut-off valve. Run up to 25 feet of 3/8" tubing (1/2" tubing if longer than 25 feet) from the valve at the cold water
supply (preferably softened) to the FEED WATER connection on the
SteamerGard™
unit.
OPTIONAL
: Before connecting the feed water line to the
SteamerGard™
unit, the storage tank may be filled with
tap water. Before tank is filled always check that air pre-charge is 7 psi. If the tank is not initially filled with water, it
will take up to one hour for the
SteamerGard™
system to fill the tank with enough purified water to operate the
steamer. If it is desirable to fill the tank, remove one of the plugs from one side of the tee on the shut-off valve of
the tank, be sure the other side of the tee is plugged. Connect the feed water line to the unplugged compression
fitting of the tee. Open the valve on the tank and open the cold tap water supply valve. Allow the tank to fill for
approximately 30 seconds. Close both valves. Disconnect the feed water line from the tank. Move the tank to its
permanent location.
5.
Drain Water Line:
Run up to 25 feet of 3/8" tubing (1/2" tubing if longer than 25 feet) from the DRAIN
connection of the
SteamerGard™
unit to the nearest drain. The
SteamerGard™
system has a pressurized drain
and therefore, the drain tubing may be run up to 5 feet above the
SteamerGard™
unit. The drain termination
must
vent freely to the air, with a proper air gap between the tubing termination and the drain opening, in order to
comply with local plumbing codes.
