SAUNATEC HELO HSX Steam generator
5
Mounting the generator and steam supply pipe:
The steam generator can be floor standing or wall mounted using the L-brackets (included in
package). When mounting the steam generator to the wall use the keyhole slots in the L-bracket
Use suitable screws according to wall material and local standards.
NOTE: HELO HSX-steam generator’s weight when filled with water is approx. 17 kg.
Check construction instruction when fastening the steam generator to wall for
proper fastening.
When using the optional drain valve, wall mounting is recommendable for proper downhill
gradient for the drain pipe.
Copper tube, 15mm, is recommended as steam pipe from the steam generator to the steam room.
The steam pipe shall run in a straight downhill- or uphill gradient from the steam generator to the
steam room. Avoid any “water pockets” or other dips in the steam feed pipe on its route to the
steam-nozzle as these will collect condensed water and block the pipe.
Condensation should be able to run on a downhill gradient from the steam generator to the steam
room if the generator is mounted above the level of the steam nozzle, or run back to the steam
generator on a downhill gradient from the steam nozzle to the generator if the generator is mounted
below the level of the steam nozzle.
NOTE: It is recommended to insulate the steam feed pipe for safety reason and to avoid heat
loss /condensation.
