The steam pipe should have as few bends as possible, and
these must be smoothly rounded with a minimum of 5 cm
radius. (Fig. 11)
Sharp angles must not be present.
Fig. 11
Important! There must not be any kind of blockage in the
steam piping (taps, etc.). The internal diameter of the steam
piping must not be reduced.
If the steam pipe is longer than 3 meters, it should be heat
insulated with an insulation that can tolerate at least 100°C. If
the pipe is not insulated, there is a risk that the steam will
cool and condense, resulting in water in the steam pipe.
The distance between inflammable material, such as wood,
and an uninsulated steam pipe must not be less than 10 mm.
When running piping through walls, the hole for the lead-
through must have a diameter that is 10 mm greater that the
external diameter of the pipe.
IMPORTANT!
The steam nozzle is installed inside the steam room at least
40 cm above floor level. Do not locate the nozzle so that the
steam jet will hit the wall, seating area or any other object,
there must be at least 80 cm clear area in front of the steam
nozzle. If the steam room is to be used by children or anyone
with a reduced reaction ability or similar, there must be
protection present that will prevent unintentional contact with
the steam jet nearest to the steam nozzle.
If the steam nozzle will be installed in a Tylö steam room,
refer to the installation instructions that accompany the
steam room.

Drainage
For drainage connect a copper pipe of good quality and an
internal diameter of at least 25 mm to connection 3 on the
steam generator. The steam generator drain pipe is led to
the nearest drain outside the steam room. The temperature
of the water being drained is about 80-85°C.
To reduce the temperature of the water and reduce the risk
of scale build-up in the drain, a washbasin can be installed
between the steam generator and the drain. (Tylö Item no.
9002 9060)
IMPORTANT!
There must not be any kind of blockage in the drain piping
(e.g. taps or valves). The drain pipe must have a continuous
down-slope all the way from the steam generator to the
drain.
