LOCATION — ELECTRIC STEAMERS & STEAM GENERATORS

Position the steamer or steam generator in its final location.

The recommended clearance for proper operation is 36" (91.4 cm) at the front. The required clearance from combustible or non-combustible construction is 0" at the sides and back. The recommended clearance for service access is 18" (45.7 cm) at the sides and back. Clearances less than 18" may require removal of adjacent equipment during servicing at customer's expense.

An exhaust system should be located directly above the steamer to exhaust steam and heat generated by the steamer.

IMPORTANT: Do not locate the boiler base directly over a drain.
