The Dualit Professional steam station
makes quick work of the toughest
ironing jobs. It has continuous steam
available at the touch of a button and
an easy-glide coating on the base
plate to ensure a smooth operation.
Ultra dry micrafine pressurised steam
easily flattens out the toughest
dried-in creases.

STEAM STATION
UNPACKING & INSPECTION
Steam stations are made up of two
main components: a container that
holds the water for steam ironing and
an iron without a water tank.
The main body has a heating element
that boils the water and a valve that lets
the steam through a hose into the iron.
An electric cord for the soleplate
combined with a rubber hose for the
steam supply connect the two
components.
The thermostat for the iron soleplate is
located on the iron the same place as
for conventional irons and there’s a
steam pulse button that you press for
steam ironing.
Vertical steaming is possible due to this
component arrangement, which is ideal
for ironing and freshening up curtains
and suits.
