How to Select Generator Size

Step 1. Determine cubic footage of steam enclosure: multiply LENGTH inches x WIDTH inches x HEIGHT inches

to find cubic inches. Divide cubic inches by 1728 to determine cubic feet.

Step 2. Find steam enclosure size within the ranges shown on the chart for the supply voltage

(240 VAC or 208 VAC).

Step 3. Consider material and climate: If the steam enclosure is constructed of tile or marble or if the steam

enclosure is against poorly insulated outside walls in a cold climate, select the next higher or highest kW
size of steam generator available. Natural stone such as marble may reduce the cubic cpacity by as
much as 50%.

Electrical Requirements

All SteamPro generators operate at 208 or 220 to 240 VA C at 50 or 60 Hz. Circuit is to be single phase 3-wire (two
conductors at line voltage and one ground conductor must be provided). Bond the SteamPro generator with a #8
minimum gauge solid copper wire from the bonding clamp at the unit to the house electrical panel or approved local
ground. An appro ved ground ma y be an 8 foot long ground rod (3 meter length earth rod), a plate electrode, or other
acceptable bond. Chec k y our local b uilding code f or requirements.

Caution: Without proper grounding and bonding, a system malfunction may cause fatal shoc k.

INSTALLATION

Locating the Steam Generator

The steam generator must be installed upright and level. The steam generator must be located within a 25 foot
maximum steam line run to the steam head AND within the 25 foot control wire length to an y controls. It may stand
attached to a horizontal base or to a wall. For w all mounting, use “keyhole” slots on a cabinet back to slip o ver screw
heads and install a wood cleat or shelf to the wall at the bottom of the unit to help support the bottom. Add a cleat at
the top to keep the unit in place.

Install the steam generator indoors only and in a dry location that will not be subject to freezing. If exposure to
freezing can not be avoided (e.g., seasonal-use homes), the optional automatic tank drain down valve must be
installed. Turn off the pow er and w ater supply to the unit if it will not be used for an extended period of time.

Room Construction and Ventilation: Important

The room in which the steam generator is to be located must be constructed of materials that can withstand excessive
amounts of moisture and condensation. Large amounts of steam can be released into the room when the enclosure
door is opened. Pro viding natural or f orced ventilation of the room will help maintain comf ort and minimize moisture
damage to the building. Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath is not responsible for damage resulting from excessive moisture.
Consult an architect or engineer for aid in designing your room structure.

Plumbing Instructions and Cautionary Notes on Installation

Minerals in the water or poor water quality can shorten the life of the steam generator or cause erratic operation if
the tank is not drained regularly. Drain the tank frequently. Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath also strongly recommends
purchasing and installing the optional drain down valve. See the important note below. The tank will be drained
automatically after each use after the water temperature lowers. Water filters and other conditioners are strongly
recommended if the water is of poor quality.

Guard against possible contact with hot steam pipes and other plumbing.
Maximum run of the steam pipe is 25 feet. The steam pipe should be insulated. This will reduce condensation in

the steam line and will increase efficiency. Use only copper and brass pipe and fittings, 1/2 inch minimum.
Install a water supply shutoff valve where it is easily accessible.
The water supply pipe should be attached to cold supply. Do not use a saddle or piercing type connection for the

steam unit water supply.
Apply thread compound sparingly to fitting threads such that excess compound does not dislodge and restrict the

copper pipes or filter screen. Flush lines before making connections to the generator.
When tightening or loosening fittings, always use a backup wrench to hold the adjacent fitting.

Caution: Do not install any valves or create restrictions in the steam line. Do not construct any dips or valleys
in the steam line as condensation will accumulate in these and block the pipe with water. Pitch the steam line

such that condensation will run to the steam generator (preferable) or to the steam head.
Important Note About Tank Drain Selection:
Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath strongly recommends purchasing and installing the optional Automatic Tank Drain Valve

for the steam generator. This drain valve prevents standing water from remaining in the tank between uses.
The Automatic Tank Drain Valve must be installed where the steam generator may be exposed to freezing

temperatures, e.g., in seasonal-use homes. (Water supply lines and water solenoid valve must not be allowed to
freeze.) This option prevents standing water from remaining in the tank. The tank will be automatically drained
through this valve when the water has cooled.

Read all warranty provisions before selecting a manual drain valve or the automatic drain down option.

Steam Head Installation for Various Wall Surfaces

Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath recommends that the steam shield be used for all steam head installations. The steam shield
must be installed if the steam head is located on acrylic (or other plastic) wall surfaces or above a bath rim. The steam
head is to be installed at 18 inches minimum height above the floor or shower base.
The steam head is to be installed at 10 inches minimum above a bath rim.
Caution: Consult the manufacturer of the enclosure, shower, or bath unit to verify the suitability of the material for
use with steam.

SERVICE

Description of SteamPro Steam Generator

The SteamPro series generator is the latest in modern steam generator design. The SteamPro steam generator uses a
printed circuit assembly to monitor and control all the equipment needed to produce steam. The system has three functions:
a timer that controls the length of the steam bath; the operating w ater le v el is monitored and controlled; and the heating
elements are protected by a minimum water level sensor. The generator is compartmentalized into wiring, control and
tank sections. The elements can be remo ved through an access opening on the service side.

Maintenance of SteamPro Generators

Maintenance of the SteamPro generator includes flushing the unit periodically and visually inspecting for water leaks.
Whenever the gener ator is opened all wiring should be inspected for an y signs of ov erheating. All electrical connections
should be checked f or tightness.

Repair of SteamPro Generators

A. ELEMENT REPLACEMENT: Disconnect power from the unit. Drain the tank. Open the front and HEATING

ELEMENT ACCESS covers. Note the wire connections. See diagram. Remove the element wires. Using a hot
water element socket, remov e the element. To install a new element, mount a new element gask et on the element.
Clean the element port and add a light coat of Rectorseal No. 5 pipe thread compound to the threads . Insert and
hand tighten the element-gasket combination. Notice the element end orientation as shown in diagram. Tighten
the element until the orientation is the same as diagram, ± 15°. The gasket should be set and tight but not
deformed to a rounded or bulbous appearance. If the drain valve was removed reinstall it. Reconnect the wiring.
Test the unit. Check for leaks at the element. Replace the front cover and the HEATING ELEMENT ACCESS
cover.

B. PRINTED CIRCUIT REPLA CEMENT: Disconnect power from the unit. Remove the front co ver. Note where the

blue wire is connected to the triple pronged water level probe. Disconnect all three wires from the water level
probe. A u-clip on the shelf is retaining these three wires. Slightly bend this u-clip to free the three wires. Discon­nect the two blue wires from the water solenoid and (3) wires connected to TB1. Note and tag the position of all
wires that plug into the printed circuit assembly mounted relays. Remove all the wires from the relays. When
removing these wires pull on the connector and not the wire. Fiv e screws hold the board in place. Remov e all five
screws. The printed circuit assembly can now be removed. To install the board reverse this procedure. Test the
unit.

IMPORTANT

The blue wire connected to "L" and "P3" on the PCA must be connected
to the shortest of the three level probes.

C. WATER SOLENOID REPLACEMENT: Disconnect power from the unit. Turn the water supply OFF. Disconnect

the water supply from the water solenoid valv e. Remove the front cov er. Remo ve the two b lue wires from the water
solenoid valve. Rotate the self-tightening hose clamp so it can be loosened with a pair of pliers. Squeeze the
clamp and move it down to wards the shelf and off the v alv e outlet tube. Remove the two 1/4" - 20 hex head bolts
and lock washers that attach the valve to the chassis. Pull the valve off the rubber fill hose. To install the valve,
reverse these instructions. Test the unit.

D. LEVEL PROBE REPLA CEMENT : Disconnect power from the unit. Remove the front cover . Note where the blue

wire is connected to the triple pronged water level probe. Disconnect all three (3) wires from the w ater level probe.
Using a 1-1/4" box wrench, remove the le vel probe . Install a new lev el probe. Tighten until the bottom of the plastic
nut is 1/8" to 3/8" inch above the top of the port. Reattach the three (3) wires. Test the unit.
