Setup and Installation
Proper installation is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of your SteamSpa steam generator. It is highly recommended that installation be performed by a qualified professional.
1. Plumbing Installation
Ensure the generator unit is placed in a dry, cool, and easily accessible space. The installation kit includes essential components for water inlet and steam outlet connections.
The steamhead should be installed on the inside of the shower, approximately 12 inches off the floor, opposite where you will be sitting. This ensures optimal steam distribution and user comfort.
2. Control Panel Installation
The wall-mounted digital dual touch pad allows for easy control of your steam shower. It features an easy-to-read wide digital display, options to set desired spa time and temperature, and the ability to save favorite settings.
The control panel should be installed on the inside of the shower, typically 4-5 feet above the floor and away from the steamhead. Ensure proper sealing with silicone to prevent water intrusion.
3. Electrical Installation
Electrical connections should be performed by a licensed electrician. The system requires a 240V power supply. Ensure all connections are secure and meet local electrical codes.
