A 1

" clearance hole around the steam pipe is
needed to mount the steamhead.
STEP 1
Locate steam head 6-12 inches above floor, except for:
1. Tub/shower enclosures, install 6 inches above tub top edge.
2. Consult with supplier of acrylic, fiberglass and other non-heat
resistant enclosures for recommended steamhead location.
3. Use Acrylic Shield MS 103412. See instructions provided with
steam shield.
4. To reduce noise do not locate the steamhead within 12" from
a wall.
STEP 2
Install steamhead with the oil well facing up as shown.
Hand tightening is sufficient when teflon or equal pipe thread
sealing compound is used.
STEP 3
Secure a bronze drop ear fitting to a header and run a

"
copper steam pipe from the steam generator to the drop ear
fitting. Install a temporary nipple (6" or longer) in the drop ear
fitting to locate the steamhead after the wall is finished.
STEP 4
After the wall has been finished, mark on the nipple where the
surface of the wall is. Remove the nipple and measure the por-
tion that was in the wall (the end to your mark). Subtract
1

" from
that dimension and select a brass nipple of that length to finish
the installation.
STEP 5
Wrap teflon tape around the threads of the new nipple and screw
the nipple into the steamhead. Do not use wrenches or tools which
would damage the steamhead's finish.
Wrap teflon tape around the threads of the nipple and screw the
nipple and steamhead assembly you just made into the drop ear fit-
ting in the wall. The steamhead should be flush with the wall and
the well must be facing up.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
•
Do not disassemble steamhead. MrSteam’s steamhead is
shipped fully assembled and requires no additional assembly.
• To preserve steam head finish, do not use wrenches or other
tools to tighten. DO NOT use abrasive cleansers or chemicals.
Use only water with mild soap and a non-abrasive sponge.
Because the steam head and direct steam emissions are very hot,
locate the steam head where incidental contact by bather with
the steam head or direct steam emission cannot occur.
