Supervise children at all times.
Steam is hot and can cause
To reduce the risk of injury:
D. Excessive temperatures have a high
potential for causing fetal damage during the early months of preg­nancy. Pregnancy or possibly preg­nant women should consult a physi­cian regarding correct exposure.
E. Obese persons and persons with a
history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should con­sult a physician before using a steambath.
F. Persons using medication should
consult a physician before using a steambath since some medication may induce drowsiness while other medications may affect heart rate, blood pressure and circulation.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HYPERTHERMIA occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6° F. The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia include:
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of hyperthermia.

WATER QUALITY INFORMATION
For optimum results, the water supply should be tested prior to installation. If the
ineral content exceeds the following recommended limits, various external treat-
m ment processes are recommended to correct the problem.
An analysis of the on-site water must be made by a recognized and reliable water treatment company to ascertain the existing condition and treatment required.
Poor water quality can affect efficiency or result in steam generator damage. Water contains impurities in solution and suspension. These impurities concentrate in the generator. The concentration of these impurities increases as more feedwater is introduced into the generator and steam is produced. If the suspended solids are allowed to concentrate beyond certain limits, a deposit or “scale” will form on the generator internal surfaces. This deposit can interfere with the proper generator operation and cause generator failure. The concentration of these impurities is generally controlled by the water quality and by periodic draining of the generator.
RECOMMENDED FEEDWATER QUALITY
Hardness, ppm 8 – 85 (~0.5 – 5 gpg) P-Alkalinity, ppm 85 – 410 (~5 – 24 gpg) T. Alkalinity, ppm 200 – 500 (~7 – 0 gpg) pH (strength of alkalinity) 8.0 – 11.4
Every 2 months, or more often in “hard” water areas, the manual drain valve should be opened fully flushing out accumulated materials, salts and other particles which are natural by-products of boiling water.
The optional AutoFlush System feature automatically drains the MrSteam tor following each use. A time delay allows the water to cool down (about two hours) before it drains by gravity for a safe and gentle operation.
LOCATING THE STEAM GENERATOR
Select a location as near as practical to the steam room.
Typical locations include: closet, vanity cabinet, heated attic or basement.
The standard length of the cable for connecting the control to the steam generator is 30 feet. The steam genera­tor and control must be located accordingly. A 60 foot cable is available as a special order part for iTempo 103990-60 and PN 104117-60 for iSteam
IMPORTANT NOTE: The control cable should be run in a dedicated 1" conduit to facilitate installation and service.

Check local plumb-ing code for receptor, trap and vent requirements. Do not connect Drain line and Safety Valve line together. Unit drains by gravity.
Do not plumb the generator drain and condensation pan drain together in such a way that will cause drain water to back into condensation pan. DO NOT drain into a steam enclosure or any location where accidental contact with drain water may occur. In the event of a power failure the AutoFlush System valve will open and may discharge boiling water causing a scalding hazard.
DO NOT connect the drain valve to the steam
piping
AROMASTEAM
If the optional AromaSteam Electronic Oil Delivery System (PN: MS AROMA) is to be installed, a 90 degree T plumbing fitting must be installed at a designated location on the steam piping. See the MrSteam AromaSteam Operation and Instruction Manual (PN: 100402) for installation information before the steam piping is installed at the technical downloads section of www.mrsteam.com
STEAM PIPING (1⁄2" NPT)
1. DO NOT install any valve in steam piping. Flow of steam must be unobstructed.
2. Use 1/2-inch brass pipe or copper tubing from unit to steam head as permitted by codes.
3. Insulate steam piping with fiberglass pipe insulation or similar insulation rated 212° F or higher.
4. Pitch steam piping1/4" per foot towards steam head or steam generator to avoid valleys and trapping of condensate.
Failure to pitch the steam piping as required for condensate to drain, may cause condensate to block the flow of steam. Blocking the steam flow may cause steam pressure to discharge boiling water through the steamhead, resulting in a scalding hazard. Blocking the flow of steam may cause steam to discharge through the safety valve, resulting in a scalding hazard.
A 1.5" hole in the steam room is required to mount the steamhead. For Linear steamhead, please refer to the installation instructions.
SAFETY VALVE (3⁄4" NPT)
Where permitted by local codes, provide an outlet plumbing connection for safety valve.
To insure proper and automatic safety valve operation: DO NOT connect a shut off valve or a plug at safety valve outlet. DO NOT connect a shut off valve or any obstruction in steam supply pipe. DO NOT connect the safety-valve output into the steam piping.
CONDENSATION PAN
MrSteam strongly recommends the use of a condensation pan in the unlikely event of a plumbing leak. Check local plumbing codes for receptor, trap and vent requirements. Condensation pans drain by gravity. The condensation pan is equipped with an integral 3/4" fitting. See page 17 for additional condensation pan installation information.
Do not plumb the generator drain and conden­sation pan drain together in such a way that will cause drain water to back into condensation pan.

needed to mount the steamhead.
STEP 1
Locate steam head 6-12 inches above floor, except for:
1. Tub/shower enclosures, install 6 inches above tub top edge.
2. For enclosures with acrylic or other non-heat resistant flooring install Acrylic Shield Part Number 103938.
3.To prevent door seals from deteriorating do not locate the steam head where direct steam emission would contact door seals.
4. To reduce noise, do not locate steamhead within 12" from a wall.
STEP 2
Install steamhead with the oil well facing up as shown. Hand tightening is sufficient when teflon or equal pipe thread sealing compound is used.
STEP 3
Secure a bronze drop ear fitting to a header and run steam piping from the steam generator to the drop ear fitting. Install a temporary nipple (6" or longer) in the drop ear fitting to locate the steamhead after the wall is finished.
STEP 4
After the wall has been finished, mark on the nipple where the surface of the wall is. Remove the nipple and measure the portion that was in the wall (the end to your mark). Subtract from that dimension and select a brass nipple of that length to finish the installation.
STEP 5
Wrap teflon tape around the threads of the new nipple and screw the nipple into the steamhead. Do not use wrenches or tools which would damage the steamhead's finish. Wrap teflon tape around the threads of the nipple and screw the nipple and steamhead assembly you just made into the drop ear fitting in the wall. The steamhead should be flush with the wall and the well must be facing up.

IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT disassemble steamhead. MrSteam’s steamhead is shipped fully assembled and requires no additional assembly.
To preserve steam head finish, DO NOT use wrench or other tools to tighten. DO NOT use abrasive cleansers or chemicals. Use only water with mild soap and a non-abrasive sponge.
Because the steam head and direct steam emissions are very hot, locate the steam head where incidental contact by bather with the steam head or direct steam emission cannot occur.
Consult with supplier of acrylic, fiberglass and other non-heat resistant enclosures for recommended steamhead location. Use Acrylic Shield PN 103938 (round) or PN 103938SQ (square). See instructions provided with steam shield.

CARE TIPS FOR ALL CONTROLS AND STEAMHEADS
1. Use only mild soap and water on a soft cloth to clean the control and steamhead.
2. DO NOT use abrasive cleansers.
3. If the decorative cover is damaged on the iTempo
r iTempo/Plus call MrSteam technical service for
o
replacement parts.
Replacement of the decorative covers requires removal and reinstallation of the control from the mounting surfaces.
STEAM GENERATOR MAINTENANCE
MrSteam steambath generators require little maintenance. Other than periodic draining, maintenance procedures are mini­mal. Every 2 months, or more often in “hard” water areas, the manual drain valve should be opened fully flushing out accumu­lated materials, salts and other particles which are natural by­products of boiling water.
Flush a minimum of two-three hours after the con-
trol has been turned off to insure that the water has cooled.
Draining immediately after a steam cycle may expose PVC and other piping to high temperature water. Check local codes. The unit will refill automatically when the control is activated again. In areas of hard water, a MrSteam AutoFlush system is recommended for generator longevity.
Failure to allow the water to cool will expose the equipment and user to scalding water and cause property and personal injury.
®
To prevent slip and fall hazards non-skip
strips must be installed on the steam room floor.
DO NOT alter or modify any MrSteam product. Doing so may result in an inoperative or hazardous installation and will void the UL listing and warranty.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
lightning, fire, freezing or flooding is not covered under the warranty.
Discontinue use of the steam generator or control if the steam generator is damaged or otherwise not functioning properly. Doing so may result in an inoperative or hazardous condition.
Malfunction due to power spikes,
