WARNING: Risk of burns or property damage. Do not plumb the pressure relief valve into the steam
line. Plumbing the pressure relief valve into the steam line can create a hazard if the steam line is
blocked or obstructed.
WARNING: Risk of personal injury or property damage. Do not direct the pressure relief valve to the
enclosure. In the event the pressure relief valve activates, the hot water may spray causing burns to the
user and/or damage the enclosure. Therefore, the pressure relief valve should be directed to an area
where damage will not occur from contact with hot water and should conform to national and local
plumbing codes.
IMPORTANT! When installing the control pad, allow room in the control cable for a drip loop. The drip
loop will discourage moisture from following the control cable to the steam generator.
IMPORTANT! The steam generator will perform best when installed as close as possible to the steam
head. The unit should be installed within 25' (7.62 m) of the steam head.
IMPORTANT! For optimum performance install the steam generator below the level of the steam head.
Determine the location of the steam generator. Allow for a 12" (30.5 cm) air gap on all sides of the
generator(s). Allow for the drain/spill pan.
The drain pan is not supplied. Choose a drain pan to fit your installation.
Connect a tee to the existing cold water line.
IMPORTANT! The in-line water filter (recommended) must be installed between the shut-off valve and the
steam generator inlet.
If applicable, install the recommended in-line water filter to the shut-off valve.
Install a shut-off valve on the water inlet line in an accessible area before the recommended in-line
filter.
Install copper tubing from the in-line water filter (if applicable) to the inlet on the steam
generator(s).
Connect the pressure relief valve to a drain line. The drain line should meet all applicable codes.
Before connecting the water inlet line, flush the water line into a large pail to remove any silt or
other materials that may be in the line.
Make the final connection of the water supply to the steam generator. Check for leaks.
NOTE: All Kohler steam generators are equipped with an automatic water fill system. The water will stop
after the unit is full.
