AromaSteam Operation and Installation Instructions
______________________________________________________________________________________________
GENERAL INSTALLATION (
cont.)
Clearance to heat sources
• Do not install the AromaSteam system directly below or above the MrSteam
steam generator where it is subject to heat.
• Minimum distance between the AromaSteam system and a heat source (e.g.
steam generator, heating system) is 1.5 ft. If this minimum distance of 1.5 ft
cannot be maintained, install a radiation plate or heat insulation between the
heat source and AromaSteam system.
• Ambient temperature at and around the AromaSteam system should not
exceed 90˚ F.
Tubing Connections
1. Completely unscrew tightening nut from pump head (or fitting) and remove
components
2. Assemble tubing components as shown in figure 1.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To prevent connection from coming undone, insert tubing
holder completely into tubing until it reaches the bottom. Lubricate the ID of
the tubing as required with soap to facilitate insertion.
To prevent damage do not use tools to tighten the nut.
Installing the 90 degree T and Atomizing Nozzle
1. For optimal results locate a brass 90 degree T (not provided) and atomizing
nozzle in the steam supply line within 10 feet of the steam head. If using
copper tubing for steam lines, install a female 1/2 NPT or 1/4 NPT reducing
Tee in the steam line facing downward.
2. T must face downward as shown (in figure 2).
3. If a 1/2 NPT tee is used, cut off the 1/4 NPT portion of the injector with a
hacksaw.
4. Screw the atomizing nozzle into 90° T fitting using teflon tape on the threads.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Follow the installation instructions for the steam
pipeline in the MrSteam Steam Bath Installation and Operation Manual.
