XT SERIES INSTALLATION, OPERATION, AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
WARNING
Standing water in XT steam blower
Make sure the XT steam blower is installed plumb. If it is not installed plumb, standing
water can accumulate, which can:
• cause bacteria and mold growth, which can cause illness;
• affect XT steam blower performance;
• cause 212 °F (100 °C) water to discharge from the XT steam blower, which can
cause severe personal injury.
REMOTE MOUNTING XT STEAM BLOWER
The XT steam blower is constructed with a pitch toward the drain; however, it
must be installed level and plumb for proper drainage. See the Warning.
INSTALLING BASE PLATE
The steam blower has a base plate for remote-mounted steam blower
applications. The base plate isolates the hot steam box from contact. After the
electrical connections are made, assemble the base plate onto the bottom of
the steam blower with the screws provided.
