To properly install a steam room generator, you might need a plumber and an electrician to help - depending on your handyman skills of course. The generator needs to be connected to your water line and a 240V line voltage.
Deciding where to place your steam generator can potentially be a challenge.
It can be set up in a vanity cabinet, your basement, an attic, or some other unoccupied space.
Most generators can be installed between 20 and 40 or 50 feet away from the steam room enclosure.
The generator is connected to a steam head, which is actually installed inside the enclosure itself.

Your dealer will help you decide what kind of generator you’ll need for your particular situation.
Many units have electronic controls that allow you to set your desired temperature and duration. The controls can be located inside or outside the steam enclosure.
They’re pretty easy to operate. A digital readout tells you what the temperature is and how many minutes are left.
