Water connection

Connect cold water to connection 1 on the steam generator.
The incoming water pressure must be between min. 0.2 and
max 10 bar.
To avoid banging, the water connection between the copper
piping (internal dia. min. 12 mm) and the steam generator to
consist of approx. 1 meter of flexible armored rubber hose.
Important! Before the incoming water connection is made to
the steam generator, the piping system must be flushed
clean!
Flushing clean prevents metal particles and other foreign
objects entering the steam generator system from the piping.
Also remember to install the accompanying non-return valve
into the incoming water connection
NB:
In areas with hard water, exceeding 4°dH hardness, a water
softener or a "Tylö de-calcifier" must be installed (Tylö Item
No.: 9090 8025). The water softener must not produce foam
or give off harmful chemicals.

Steam pipe

Fit the connector, with the lock nut uppermost, to steam
outlet 2 on the steam generator. Connect a copper pipe, with
an internal diameter of at least 18mm, to the connector
steam outlet (C). The steam pipe can have a down-slope
either towards the steam room or towards the steam
generator. Alternatively the steam pipe can be installed with
a slope down towards both the steam room and towards the
steam generator.
IMPORTANT!
Water pockets in the steam pipe between the steam
generator and the steam room, where condensed water can
collect, must not be present.
