Installation Guide

4. Install the Temperature Sensor
IMPORTANT! Do not locate the temperature sensor directly above
the steam head. Locate the temperature sensor on the wall opposite
the steam head.
IMPORTANT! Make a drip loop in the temperature sensor wire to
prevent moisture from following the wire to the steam generator.
Make sure the power is turned off at the main breaker panel
before proceeding.
Locate the temperature sensor on the wall 5″ (127 mm) down
from the ceiling, on the wall opposite the steam head.
Drill a 3/8″ (K-1737-K1, K-1838-K1) or 7/16″ (K-5548-K1,
K-5549-K1) hole at the selected location.
IMPORTANT! Do not pinch, nail, wedge, or use undue force when
handling the sensor wire. Any damage may result in temperature
sensor failure.
Insert the temperature sensor wire through the drilled hole.
Route the wire behind the wall to the steam generator location.
Apply a small bead of silicone sealant to the back of the sensor
housing. Do not let any sealant contact the sensor probe.
Press the sensor firmly onto the wall.
Temporarily secure the sensor in place with tape.
Allow the silicone sealant to cure before use.
