The Steam Butler is hung from the sauna ceiling directly above the heater. You will need hardly any tools, and everything is ready in about five minutes. Important: Only install when the heater is switched off and cooled down.
Step 1: Determine the position
The tipping container should later hang centrally above the sauna stones so that it pours water to the left and right onto the stones. Mark the spot on the ceiling vertically above the center of the heater.
Step 2: Screw in the ceiling hook
Screw the stainless steel ceiling hook into a load-bearing wooden slat or ceiling panel. Keep in mind: With a filled water bowl, the weight is significantly higher than when empty.
Step 3: Hang the chains – without twisting
Hang the water bowl and tipping device with the stainless steel chains. Make sure that no chain is twisted. This is by far the most common reason why the tipping container does not tip properly later. Tip: Let the chains hang freely for a short time until they have untwisted themselves.
Step 4: Check height and alignment
The tipping device must hang horizontally and be able to move freely. Also, observe the distance specifications of your heater manufacturer.
Step 5: Fill and adjust the ball valve
Fill the water bowl with water or diluted infusion concentrate. Using the ball valve, you can continuously adjust how quickly the tipping container fills – and thus, how often it pours. It is best to try it out during the first sauna session.
After the sauna
Empty the remaining water and let the bowl dry. Occasionally flush the valve with warm water so that no residue settles.
