Failure to pitch the steam piping as required for
condensate to drain, may cause condensate to block
the flow of steam. Blocking the steam flow may cause
steam pressure to discharge boiling water through the
steamhead, resulting in a scalding hazard. Blocking
the flow of steam may cause steam to discharge
through the safety valve, resulting in a scalding
hazard.
For the optimal distribution of steam,
steamheads should be spaced evenly throughout the
steam room.
STEAMHEAD INSTALLATION
•
For steam rooms constructed of tile, marble or
similar non-porous heat-resistant materials for the
enclosure, locate steamhead 12 inches above steam
room floor and install MsSteam PN 103938 acrylic
shield on each steamhead.
•
Locate each steamhead away from bather seating
area and away from traffic patterns as required to
prevent incidental contact with steamhead or direct
steam emissions.
•
Install each steamhead with steam slots facing to
the left and right as shown in the diagrams.
•
Apply a bead of silicone around the steamhead
where it meets the wall as required to prevent
moisture damage.
To preserve the steamhead finish, do not
use wrench or other tools to tighten. Use of proper
thread sealant and hand tightening is usually
sufficient.
