!
Warning:
The installation of all the pipes should be
done
by
a
qualified licensed plumbe r.
DO NOT HEAT AUTO FILL / DRAIN VALVES WITH TORCH DURING INSTALLATION.
This will cause damage to the plastic solenoid valve which will cause malfuction or leakage.
WATER SUPPLY LINE (1/2" WITH SHUT OFF VALVE)
1. Connect cold water supply with a shut off valve that is located in a that makes it
easily operated in an emergency.
Flush water supply line before connection to eliminate sediments.
2. Make sure the water supply line is clean before attaching to steam generator intake solenoid.
It is recommended that a 3/8 inch braided hose is used to supply water to the steam generator.
3. The water pressure should be between 15-20 psi. If necessary, decrease the pressure accordingly. Excess
pressure may cause leakage or malfunction of parts. The water flow rate should be aprox 8 gpm.
4. If necessary, install equipment to prevent water hammer noise. Also install an approved backflow preventer
as required by local codes. It is suggested that a thread on braided hose (3/8") with a rubber washer be used
for the water supply line attachment to the intake solenoid. Create a tight seal between the two fittings.
If necessary, install a Hydro pneumatic device which reduces pressure spikes.
STEAM LINE PIPE (PIPE DIAMETER: 3/4" PER STEAM LINE - NO LESS!)
1. Do NOT install any valves in the steam line pipes. The steam should never be obstructed.
2. Steam generators up to 9KW require (1) 3/4 inch diameter steam line, 10.5 KW and higher steam generators
require (2) 3/4 inch diameter steam lines. Do NOT use or install steam lines in any configuration, in any less diameter
pipe, or connect them together.
3. The steam lines must be 3/4 inch diameter, the steam heads (nozzles) are 3/4 inch threaded. Steam lines must be
copper or brass material. Do NOT use ABS, galvanized, or PVC pipe. Use threaded unions to install all components
of the steam generator.
4. If steam lines are insulated, the insulating materials should be resistant to a temperature of no less then 250F.
5. The steam lines should be installed horizontally with a slight incline to allow condensate to run off. Incline can be towards
the steam room or the steam generator. Do NOT allow steam pipe to sag, or create any sort of trap that will allow condensate
to build up and block steam flow within the steam lines.
6. The shorter the steam lines, the better performance of the steam genarator. Keep the number of elbows and abrupt turns in
the steam lines to a minimal. Do NOT combine the steam lines if the generator has more then one steam line, do NOT attach
the steam line(s) to the pressure reducer valve line, or drain line.
!
Attention:
Do NOT install steam line in an upper or lower direction repeatedly. This will affect the output of steam and can create a blockage to the flow of steam.
Ò â
:
× ¢
Avoid installing the steam heads (nozzles) in an area that will come into contact with any body parts or bathers traffic. Add appropriate protection to avoid bodily injury or burns. It is VERY HOT in the vicintiy of the steam heads outlets.

Important:
1. Please consult your distributors of building materials like acryl ic
, fiber glass or other anti-heat sheet about the installation position of steam nozzle. It is suggested that MS-
103412 anti-heat material can be used.
2. In the entire steam room, it is required that steam must
not leak out. The pipes, its accessories and the holes in the wall should be airproof by applying silicone
so that no steam will enter the holes in the wall.
Aroma Essence Reservoir
(apply a few drops prior to heating)
If non-heat-resistant material such as acrylic is used a wall material, create a gap of no less then 1.4" and fill with silicone.
Apply Silicone
Use silicone to fill in the gaps in the wall to achieve the proper water proofing and damp proof effect.
Inside wall of steam room.
!
Attention:
The drain pipe should not incline to prevent gravity flow of draining water.
DO NOT HEAT AUTO FILL / DRAIN VALVES WITH TORCH DURING INSTALLATION.
This may cause damage, leakage or malfunction to intake/drain solenoid valves
DRAIN PIPE: (1/2 inch diameter)
Steam generators up to 9 KW are equipped with an auto drain solenoid valve. The steam generators 10.5 KW and higher are also equipped with an auto drain solenoid valve, plus an additional manual drain port that is capped. The manual drain port is to remain capped at all times. This secondary port is for back up manual draining if required for maintenance use only.
SAFETY PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE: Rated 15 psi.
1. Pressure relief valve is a safety device in order to prevent too much pressure build up within
the steam generator. Build up of pressure can be created by many different reasons; steam line
line blockage, undersized steam line pipr diameter, steam line traps, or vandalism. This build up
of excessive back pressure may cause the auto & manual high temperature limiting switches to
trip and cut power to the heating elements to stop producing steam.
2. The steam generator is shipped with plastic caps over the steam outlets, these are to be removed
and discarded only when making connection to the steam lines. The purpose of these caps is to
avoid any particles getting into the boiler tank while installing or handling the steam generator during
installation.
3. Steam bath generators that are 18 KW and Higher will have a factory installed pressure switch. This
pressure switch will cut power to the steam generator heating elements when the internal steam pressure
within the boiler tank or steam line(s) reaches over the manufactures recommended limit. The switch will
reset automatically when the excessive pressure has been substantially reduced. This will re-occure until
the cause of excessive pressure has been rectified. Usuall causes are listed in point 1.
4. Safety pressure relief valve is an automatic system that is actuated by pressure in order to prevent steam pressure
increasing in the interior of the generator. The pressure limit range of the saftey is 15 PSI and the pressure will begin
to decrease if pressure should come over this value. If it is allowed by local codes, provide the safety valve with exterior
drainpipe. Do NOT dismantle the pressure relief valve while generator is in operation. To maintain the proper automatic
operation of the safety valve, make sure the safety valve connection pipe is smooth.
