SteamHead
STEP 1. Locate the steam head 6-12” above the finished floor.
STEP 2. Confirm proper stud spacing: The studs must have a minimum spacing of 25-1/8” and a maximum spacing 25-1/4″. If the stud spacing is outside the required range then shim or otherwise reposition the studs as required.
Installing the steam head between incorrectly spaced studs may result in damage to the steam head and result in a leak within the wall cavity and cause property damage.
STEP 3. Position the steam head so that the steam head face will end up flush or 1/8” proud with the finished wall surface. (see fig. 4) Install four screws in the horizontal slotted mounting holes.
Failure to position the steam head face or faceplate to be flush or extended 1/8” from the finished wall surface may result in a leak within the wall cavity and cause problems associated with leaks, moisture, and property damage from leaks.
STEP 4. Position the steam head between 2 appropriately spaced studs. Use a level to ensure the steam head is level (see Fig. 3). Install four screws in mounting holes to secure the steam head to the studs.
STEP 5. Plumb rigid copper tubing or brass pipe from the steam generator to the steam head. Plumbing must not form traps or valleys. A thread sealant must be used as required to ensure a leak-free joint between the piping and steam head.
STEP 6. Before continuing or closing the wall test the installation, piping, and steam head for leaks.
Failure to test the steam head installation may result in leaks, and cause problems associated with leaks, moisture, and property damage from leaks.

NOTE: Drawings are for illustrative purposes only. Consult with a qualified designer, architect, or contractor for steam room construction.

Steam Emission Zone

The Steam Emission Zone is the area in front of the steam head that contains dense, hot steam as it exits the steam head. Steam dissipates as it moves away from the steam head, and becomes less hot. The steam zone is the area where contact with steam presents a scalding hazard. The steam head must be installed in a location to ensure that a steam bather will not be near the steam emission zone. The diverter reduces the steam emission zone.

Installer and Home Owner Section

Diverter

The Linear SteamHead is supplied with an optional steam diverter. The steam diverter is used to reduce the steam emission zone as required to avoid contact between a steam bather and direct steam emissions
Always use the diverter if any steam bather may come into contact with direct steam emissions. Contact MrSteam if a placement diverter is required. Failure to use a diverter to reduce the steam emission zone as required to avoid contact between a steam bather and direct steam emissions may cause personal injury.
Because direct steam is very hot, the diverter will be hot during the steam session and will remain hot for a period of time after the steam session. Never install, remove or adjust a diverter when the steam head is hot or if the steam generator is turned on. Installing, removing, or adjusting when the steam head is hot or if the steam generator is turned on may cause a burn hazard and personal injury.
STEP 1. Securely press Faceplate into the opening of Linear Steam Head. (see Fig. 7).
AromaTray
The AromaTray is for use with MrSteam Essential Oils. Place a few drops of Essential Oils in the AromaTray as shown to provide a fragrant steam bath experience. Read the instructions provided with the MrSteam Essential oils to insure a pleasant and safe aromatic steam bathing experience.
Steam emissions, the linear steam head, and the Aroma tray will all be hot during a steam bath session,and will remain hot for a period of time after the steam bath session. To avoid contact with the steam head and steam emissions, never install the Aroma Tray during a steam bath session or for a period of time after the steam bath session. Touching the Aroma Tray during a steam bath session, or for a period of time after the steam bath session, may result in burns, scalding or personal injury.
