You may need:
Rough In Steam Line (not supplied)
Prior to steam head installation, Install rough plumbing line to desired
location. The steam head must be installed to a ¾” NPT copper or brass pipe;
do NOT use black iron or galvanized pipe, it will rust and discolor the steam
bath wall. Do NOT use plastic supply pipes or fittings.
NOTE: Supply elbow and steam supply pipe MUST BE SECURELY ANCHORED to
ridged blocking.
The steam head location should be 12” to 18” above the shower floor or 6”
above the rim of the bathtub, as far from the seating area as possible.
Steam Head Installation
-
Make sure the 3/4” nipple protrudes beyond the tile ¼” to ½” (6-12 mm).
-
Keep opening in finished wall close as possible to pipe nipple with no more than 1/2” gap.
IMPORTANT: If the nipple protrudes beyond ½” the O-ring will not make a proper seal and the nipple will have to be adjusted. -
Wrap the threads of the nipple with plumber’s tape or use pipe sealant.
-
Make sure the steam head will line up in the upright position when tightened. The steam head should only be firmly hand tight. Using a wrench on the head may damage it. Screw the steam head on to the nipple and see how it lines up. Once a proper alignment is made remove the steam head.
NOTE: The steam head has been designed with a 360 degree dispersion of steam to improve steam circulation and to minimize the hotspots created with the traditional steam heads. For maximum comfort the steam head should always be located as far from the seating area as possible. Should the location of the steam head necessitate blocking the steam from a particular direction to improve bather comfort, the supplied deflector plate can be added to any of the three sides shown to help divert the steam away from the bather. The deflector is attached to the back side of the head before installation with 2 stainless steel screws provided. (See Option Installation, Deflector section on next page).
NOTE : If necessary the head can be repositioned by disassembling the hub from the cover and selecting one of the two alternate positions.
- Re-apply sealant tape if necessary.
- Place a bead of silicone around the pipe, sealing the pipe to the wall.
- Place a bead of silicone around the back outer edge of the back plate.
- Center and square the back plate over the nipple. While holding the head in place, attach the nipple by hand tightening the screws to the head.
- Adjust the back plate and head to line up squarely. Remove any excess silicone with rubbing alcohol.
Optional Installation
IMPORTANT: A silicone boot is provided and should be installed to protect against accidental contact with the hot surface temperature of the steam head, which can reach approximately 212° during operation.
If needed to improve bather comfort the included optional steam deflector can be installed to block the flow of steam from any of the shown sides of the steam head.
Limited Warranty
Limited Warranty on Delta® Steam Bath and Steam Shower Products Applicable to products purchased and installed in the USA and Canada:
Residential Steam Bath Generators: Delta Faucet Company (“DFC”) warrants to the original consumer purchaser that the parts (except for electronic parts) of its residential steam bath generator purchased from authorized Delta sellers will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for as long as the original consumer purchaser owns the home in which the steam bath was originally installed. This lifetime limited warranty does not apply to residential steam bath generators that are used in commercial applications (as defined herein). Residential Electronic Parts, Controls, Spa Options and Accessories: DFC warrants to the original consumer purchaser that the electronic parts of its steam bath generator and its controls, spa options and accessories purchased from authorized Delta sellers will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of two (2) years from the date that the product is received by the original consumer purchaser or their authorized representative (installation contractor, etc.). This two-year limited warranty does not apply to controls, spa options, electronic parts and accessories that are used in commercial applications (as defined herein).
Commercial Warranty: For the purposes of this warranty the term “commercial application” refers to installation in any setting in which the product is not being used for personal household use, including but not limited to hospitality applica-tions, day spas, short-term and long-term rentals and gyms. DFC warrants that the parts (including electronic parts) of its steam bath generators (including steam bath generators with model numbers beginning with 5COM, which are intended solely for heavy commercial use), equipment, controls, electronic parts, spa options and accessories purchased from authorized Delta sellers and used in a commercial appli-cation will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the date that the product is received by the original purchaser or their authorized representative (installation contractor, etc.).
