Steamhead Installation
WARNING:
When installing a steam pipe into a steam
room made out of Acrylic, Cultured Marble, Corian,
Swanstone, Resin, Plastic or an equivalent type of material,
consult the manufacturer of the material for their
recommendation on location of the steam pipe. Verify that
the type of material used for the construction of the steam
room is rated for a steam room environment. When
installing a steam pipe, in the mentioned material type
rooms, it is very critical in making sure that when the steam
pipe protrudes into the steam room that it is centered in its
1¼” hole and does not touch the edge of the wall material
around the steam pipe.

Be sure the steam pipe is installed with the proper
length pipe protruding through the wall.
Apply silicone sealant around the pipe to seal the pipe
to the wall.
Slip the Escutcheon over the steamhead loosely.
Screw on the steamhead making sure the steam
opening is facing down.
Hold the Escutcheon against the wall and tighten the
retaining screw facing down.
IMPORTANT
An optional steam diffuser (Not Included) is
strongly recommended for small steam rooms. This option
helps to better diffuse the steam and makes the steambath
more comfortable. This option may not be necessary in
larger steam rooms where the bather is sitting a few feet
away from the steamhead.
Start-up and test the Steam Generator and Control.
IMPORTANT:
The Steam Generator will
NOT
operate
without water.
