SECTION 1: GENERAL INFORMATION
Amerec steam generators are tested by Intertek-ETL Laboratory. The
steam generators come assembled and ready for installation. Check that
the size and rating of the generator is suitable for your application, refer to
the AX Steam Room Sizing and Rough-in Guide (Amerec doc 4211-36).
The AX steamers may be connected as a ganged system where one Steamer controls one or two other steamers.
Bath controls connect to the primary steamer and the primary steamer connects to the second steamer (and third
steamer, if installed). This provides more power for large rooms and light commercial use. Note: An Elite control
is required with a ganged system! See appendix to this document for details.
We recommend choosing steamers which are closely matched in power. The highest kW steamer should be the
primary unit. Each steamer should have its own automatic drain.
For commercial use, we recommend checking with your local inspectors to confirm the AX system is acceptable for
your use. Many jurisdictions will require an ASME boiler for commercial use: AX steamers are not boilers.
Note: The AX steamer may be configured for single or three phase power during installation
An exhaust fan installed outside the steam room is strongly recommended.to remove excess steam from the
bathroom or shower area.

SECTION 1: MOUNTING THE STEAM GENERATOR
DIAGRAM 1
DIAGRAM 2
The AMEREC steam generator can be hung on a wall or sit on its base. The best mounting location will satisfy all
or most of the following:
WARNING: The generator will not operate properly, unless it is mounted level with the arrows pointed up
1. The generator should be installed in a dry, well ventilated area. Suggested locations are under a vanity, in
a closet, attic, crawl space or basement. Do not mount outdoors.
2. If the generator will be in an area difficult to access, the water supply should be equipped with easily access
water shut-off valve in case of emergency.
3. If the steam line is in an area where the temperature will be below 39°F (4°C) best results can be obtained by
insulating the steam pipe. Do Not mount the generator in an area subject to freezing.
4. The generator must be mounted in a minimum 7 cubic feet (0,2 cubic meter) space.
5. The location must allow access for service! Provide clearance for plumbing and electrical service and for
element removal. See Diagram 1.
6. The steam line should slope to allow condensation to drain. The mounting location should minimize the number
of bends and elbows in the steam line
7. The mounting location should allow for a drain hook up.
8. The steam line should be less than 20 ft (6 m) long; 10 ft (3 m) is preferred. Steam lines over 20ft (6 m) long
should be insulated.
WARNING
• There must be no dips or valleys in the steam line.
• Install the steam head so as to avoid potential user direct contact with the steam or where condensation may
drip on the user as this may present a scald hazard.
• Do Not install any valves or other shut-off devices in the steam line!
• Do Not interconnect steam lines! A separate steam line is required for each generator!
• Do Not connect the drain line to the steam line or allow the drain empty into the steam room!

SECTION 1: MOUNTING THE STEAM GENERATOR (continued)
1. WALL MOUNTING: Remove the side cover. Note the location of the
mounting holes on the back of the generator. The screws must set
directly into studs or equivalent supports. Drill pilot holes on 14-1/2”
(368 mm) centers and install the two #10 1½" screws, provided.
See at right.
a) Carefully hang the generator on the two screws. Tighten the
screws.
b) The generator may be further secured with two screws
mounted on the same 14-1/2” (368 mm) centers as shown.
c) Replace the front cover with its four screws.
2. FLOOR MOUNTING:
a) In general, the width of the unit allows it to sit on a shelf, across
the ceiling joists or on a floor. The generator must be restrained
from moving. Normally, the piping will provide adequate
support. If not, additional support must be provided.
b) All floor installed generators must provide for routine draining of
the tank and for draining the safety valve’s outlet.
SECTION 2: WATER QUALITY REQUIREMENTS
The nature of a boiler or steam bath generator requires testing of the
feedwater to avoid potential high concentrations of impurities which can
cause a deposit or scale to form on the internal surfaces. This deposit
or scale can interfere with the equipment's proper operation and even
cause premature boiler or generator failure. Concentration of impurities
is generally controlled by treating the feedwater and or "blowing down"
the generator or boiler when it is not heating. The "blow down" process involves removing a portion of the tank
water with high solid concentration and replacing it with makeup water.
This is particularly important in areas with high calcium levels and other water quality problems. Calcium build-up
can cause poor steamer performance and damage the heating elements!
Be especially careful to prevent foaming in the steamer’s water! Foaming water will affect the water level
measuring systems in steamers and boilers, causing operation problems and possibly leading to early element
failures!
To insure proper operation, the water supply should be tested prior to operating the equipment. There are several
treatment processes which can be used if you have a problem with hard water. A local reliable water treatment
company can recommend the appropriate treatment if required. The recommended feedwater quality is listed on
the next page.
Recommended Feedwater Quality
Hardness 10 – 30 ppm - (0.5 - 1.75 gpg)
T-Alkalinity 150 – 700 ppm - (8.75 - 40.8 gpg)
Silica Range 15 – 25 ppm - (1.28 - 1.45 gpg)
PH (strength of alkalinity) 10.5 -- 11.5

IMPORTANT!
Regular maintenance will help your steamer work properly for a long time. Check for leaks,
loose or damaged wires, signs of corrosion and calcium build up in the tank on the level probe.
SECTION 3: PLUMBING INSTRUCTIONS
All plumbing shall be installed by a licensed plumber and conform with local & national codes.
Materials Needed:
• 3/8NPT, 1/2NPT and 3/4NPT unions: recommended to allow easy disconnect of steamer for servicing
• 3/8" copper pipe and 3/8” male NPT adapter for the water supply to the generator.
• 3/8" water supply shut-off valve.
• 3/8" supply valve housing and filter (optional depending on local water conditions).
• 1/2" copper pipe and (2) 1/2" male NPT adapters for the steam line between the generator and the steam room
outlet.

1. INSTALL WATER LINE Connect a cold water line to the generators water valve. The valve input is 3/8” NPT. A
shut-off valve should be placed in the line for each generator to allow easier servicing later, if needed, and for
emergency shut-off. Make sure the shut-off is open, providing water to the generator before first turning the on.
IMPORTANT
• Water pressure required: 20-100 psi (138-690 kPa)
• If the generator is mounted in a place difficult for the homeowner to access, the water supply
shut-off valve should be located where it can be quickly accessed in an emergency.
• Do not use a saddle valve or saddle fitting for the water shut-off valve.
• Flush water supply line before final hookup.
2. INSTALL STEAM LINE
a) At the generator: Install a 1/2" male NPT sweat adapter directly into the tank. Install a 1/2" union in the steam
line to allow easy disconnection for later servicing. Note: There must be no valves, shut offs or restrictions in
the steam line!
b) Run the 1/2" copper steam line from the generator to the steam room. Refer to SECTION 2: MOUNTING THE
STEAM GENERATOR and Diagrams 3a and 3b.
• The steam line must slope to allow condensation to drain into the tank or room.
• There must be no dips in the steam line. Low areas may collect condensation and cause faulty operation or
cause hot water to spit into the room.
c) The steam line should enter the steam room 18” (460 mm) above the floor or at least 12” (305 mm) above a tub
rim or ledge. The steam line outlet should be at least 6” (150 mm) from other steam heads to either side and
12” (305 mm) from walls or other surfaces to either side. See Diagrams 4, 5 and 6.

steam head should be level with its fragrance reservoir at the top. See
Diagrams 4 and 6.
IMPORTANT
All fixture holes must be sealed with 100% silicon caulk
to avoid moisture damage within walls. Check all of the
standard fixtures in the steam room.
5. INSTALL PRESSURE RELIEF SAFETY VALVE: Install the pressure relief valve into its port on the generator.
Install the safety valve within 6” [150] mm of the generator. Run a 3/4" copper line from the valve to a gravity flow
drain. The pressure relief valve outlet must drain in accordance with local and national codes.
AUTODRAIN All generators must have a drain valve installed to
allow draining the tank for cleaning and maintenance. A manual
ball valve is supplied. An electronic ball valve is available in the
ADX Autodrain option. When installed, Autodrain automatically
rinses and empties the steam tank approximately 1 hour after a
steam bath stops. This cleans the tank to reduce problems
caused by poor water quality and ensures every steam bath starts
with clean, fresh water. Contact Amerec Technical Support for
more information. Suppor[email protected]
or 1-425-951-1120
or at 1-800-363-0251
6. INSTALL DRAIN VALVE: Install 3/4" NPT pipe nipple directly
into the tank as shown in Diagram 7. Install a 3/4" ball valve or an
Autodrain on the nipple then add another nipple to the outlet of
the valve. Add a union to the outlet nipple to allow easy discon-
nection during servicing. Run a 3/4" copper line from the union
to a gravity flow drain. The drain must be connected in accordance with local and national codes.

• Do not run the drain uphill.
• Do not drain the safety valve into the steam line!
• Do not drain the safety valve into the steam room!
Draining the tank into the steam room may present a
scald hazard or damage the materials used to construct
the steam room.
• Do not drain into the steam room!
7. CONNECT AUTODRAIN: Connect the autodrain wires
through ½ in conduit (provided) and secure the conduit to the
chassis hole. Connect the drain wires to the terminal block
provided next to the steamer’s ground lug. See diagram 8.
SECTION 4: WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
ALSO SEE ELECTRICAL INFORMATION CHART AND WIRING DIAGRAMS
1. ELECTRICAL ROUGH-IN: Size wire for the generator as required by local or national codes. See the electrical
information on page 13 for further information. Use copper wire only. Leave 4 ft (1,2 m) of slack wire at generator
location for finish hookup. Connect the generator to a dedicated circuit breaker. A GFI device is usually not required
by safety agencies. One may be installed if required by local codes or the owner. A GFI device will tend to nuisance
trip due to heater element aging.
a. Route the copper supply wire with appropriate strain relief through the hole marked POWER ENTRY.
b. Connect the supply wires to the power terminal block as indicated on the wire diagram for your voltage and
phase. This may require moving factory installed jumper. Do not change the steamer’s internal jumpers or
wiring. Only the supply wiring side of the terminal blocks require configuration by the installer.
c. Connect the Earth wire to the copper Earth ground lug.
d. Cover the supply wires inside the steamer with a protective mesh or similar material to protect them
from water valve heating.
2. ELECTRICAL INFORMATION The AX steamers are available in 2 basic versions, one for 208V (intended for
208VAC single and three phase for North American use) and 240V (intended for all other installations. The 240V
models are rated at 240VAC and may be used on 208 to 240V single phase Line-to-Line or 208 to 240V~N (Line-
to-Neutral) or 208V to 240V three phase Delta without Neutral or for Y-connected three phase 380 to 415V~N3.
All Units are factory wired for single phase installation. The installer may change the input to three phase or three
phase with Neutral during initial installation (see the wiring diagrams on page 18).
The National Electrical Code (NEC) limits a steamer’s current to 48 Amps so in some cases, two separate power
supplies are required: AX11 & AX14 208V single phase and AX14 240V single phase.
See page 18 for Mains Wiring Details. Note: jumpers shown are supplied with the steamer.

240V models may be used at 208 to 240V.
Operating on voltages lower than 240V will result
in reduced wattage. Contact Technical Support for
further information.
Single phase 240V models are designed for North
American 240V line to line Mains voltages (without
Neutral) or 240V~N international voltages.
Three phase 240V models may be wired during
installation for a 240V delta configuration or for a
415V~N3 Y-configuration. Neutral must be supplied
for 415V!
NEC Electrical code restrictions limit Mains
current to 48A. Some single-phase models
require two separate Mains circuits to remain
below 48A by splitting the heating load
Also refer to the wiring diagrams on pages 17
and 18 for more information on connecting your
steamer.
Notes:
All steamers must be on a dedicated branch
circuit!
Use only copper wire rated 600V~ and 75°C
minimum
All models require Earth ground
All line voltage must be more than 195V~
while the steamer is heating
Steamers must be connected to a means for
disconnecting all supply voltages
All AX14 and 208V AX11 single phase
require two Mains supplies
We recommend ceilings height be 8 ft (2,4m)
max. Higher ceilings may cause sitting area
to be uncomfortably cool.

FLOOR
SECTION 5. BATH CONTROLS
1. TEMPERATURE SENSOR CABLE ROUGH-IN (low voltage) It is required that the sensor be mounted in the
steam room, but not directly over the steam dispersion head or near the door. The sensor should be located in a
wall 6” (150 mm) below the ceiling but no more than 7 ft (2,1M) above the floor. String the sensor cable from the
sensor location through 1/2:” (12 mm) holes in the wall studs or ceiling joists to the generator location. Drill a clean
7/8: (22 mm) hole through the steam room wall at the sensor location. Leave 12” (305 mm) of slack at the sensor
location. See Diagram 9.
Note: Do not staple through or damage cable.
Use factory supplied cables only.
INSTALL THE TEMPERATURE SENSOR ASSEMBLY
inside the steam room. A 7/8” (22 mm) hole should already
be in the steam room wall with the cable ready.
Make sure the sensor is not directly over the steam outlet
head or near the door. The sensor should be located in a wall
6” (150 mm) below the ceiling but no more than 7ft (2,1 m)
above the floor. Carefully connect the sensor cable to the
sensor. The cable end should slide into place and lock.
Run a light bead of silicone around the back surface of the sensor and slide it into the wall with the metal sensor
tube pointed down. Tape the sensor to the wall until the silicone has set-up.
Connect the steam generator end of the cable to the short adapter cable (4-pin modular plug to 2 pin sensor cable
jack) and plug the adapter into the NTC jack on the steamer board (located along the top edge of the steamer’s
circuit board, at the far left of the 4 black jacks). (See diagram 10)
2. CONTROL CABLE ROUGH-IN (low voltage) A 50 ft (15,2 m) 4 wire Cat5 cable is provided for connecting the
PURE 2.0 or ELITE control to the steamer. The PURE 2.0 and ELITE controls may be mounted inside or outside
the steam room. String the control cable from the control location through 1/2” (13 mm) holes in the wall studs or
ceiling joists to the generator. Note: Do not staple through or damage cable. Use factory supplied cables only.
Run the cable end through a 1” (25,4 mm) hole in the wall at the control mounting location. One PURE 2.0 or ELITE
control is required; a second may also be connected. Controls should typically be mounted 5 feet (1,5 m) above the
floor outside the steam room or at a height comfortable for viewing inside the room while having a steam bath. See
control mounting section for more information.
3. INSTALL THE ELITE or PURE 2.0 CONTROL inside or outside the steam room using the control
cable installed in section 5, step 4. If mounting to a smooth, flat wall, the adhesive pad provided will
work well to mount the control and seal the cable hole. The adhesive will stick to the wall quickly so be
sure to accurately place and level the control before attaching it to the wall!
Your Elite control comes with a plated trim piece; many finishes are available. These
trim pieces also fit the Pure 2.0. Contact Sales or Support for further information. If
using a trim piece, slide the plated trim piece over the back of the control before
mounting the control. Mounting the control will keep the trim in place.

SECTION 5. BATH CONTROLS (continued)
If the surface is uneven or has grout lines, we recommend using a small amount of silicone to mount the control. If
using silicone, run a bead around the control’s cable end and another bead around the back of the control as
shown here. Then tape in place on the wall until the silicone has set up. Note: and mount in the same manner.
If using the adhesive pad, it will stick to the wall quickly so be sure to
accurately place and level the control before attaching it to the wall!
Be sure to carefully level the control while mounting!
Note the Elite and Pure 2.0 controls have the same case:
• The control’s cable end is at the bottom of the control and a cut mark
on the back indicates the top of the control!
• The Pure 2.0’s orientation can also be seen by viewing the glass:
all the white markings are on the bottom half of the glass.
4. CONNECT THE CONTROL CABLE TO THE STEAMER with the Mains
voltage turned off. The control cable should be plugged into the one of the
four jacks in the middle of the steamer circuit board (see Diagram 10 and
the low voltage wiring diagram on page 17).

SECTION 6. INITIAL START
1. Before turning on power to the generator, make sure the configuration switch is set correctly (see Diagram 10).
a) If the generator has an electronic AutoDrain installed: If the generator will use
an electronic AutoDrain, verify the switch in the middle of the right-hand circuit
board is set as shown at left (#2 and #5 down, all other up.
b) If the generator has only a manual drain installed: If the generator will not use
an electronic AutoDrain, verify the switch in the middle of the right hand circuit
board is set as shown at left (#2, #4 and #6 down, all other up.
2. Make sure the water is turned on, the drain valve is closed and the control(s) and temperature sensor are
plugged in, then turn on the line voltage to power the generator.
• Green LEDs will light on the generator’s circuit boards right away then one more will light a few seconds later.
• If the PURE 2.0 is connected: 4 LEDs across the top of the control will begin blinking.
• If the ELITE is connected: About 30 seconds after turning on power, the ELITE screen will light and the
amerec logo will show at the bottom of the screen. A few seconds later, the ELITE screen will change to a
slowly spinning circle while it loads its program.
• A few seconds after the ELITE stops showing amerec, the PURE 2.0 (if connected) control’s LEDs will start
blinking and changing until it stops with the thermometer symbol lit (lower left corner) and one of the 1 –
10 LEDs will be lit.
o If an ELITE is not connected, go to step 3a at this point.
o If other LEDs are lit or blinking, refer to the PURE 2.0 User’s guide and contact Technical Support if
needed.
• The ELITE spinning wheel continues for about 1:30 minutes then begins normal operation. During this time, a
red LED will light on the steamer board showing that the control and circuit board are “talking” to each other.
o Go to step 3b
3a. If only an PURE 2.0 is connected: If the PURE 2.0 has started properly, press the on/off key and the
bath on LED will light and one of the 1 – 10 LEDs will light indicating the current temperature. The generator
will fill with water and start heating the room. Press the on/off key again and the generator will stop heating.
3b If an ELITE is connected: If the ELITE has started properly and if it has not been used before, it should guide
you through the initial set-up: select the language to use, set region to North America, set the current time and time
format and set the current date and date format. Then you will return to the starting menu screen. Next, go to the
Tools menu and
a) Choose Units and set to display temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit
b) Choose Bath Temperature to set the maximum bath temp. allowed
c) Choose Facility Type and set it to Private for normal home use. This allows a bath time of up to one
hour. For spas and other installations where the steam room needs to be kept hot for longer periods,
set the facility to Public for up to a 24 hour maximum bath time.
d) Next go to the home screen and the display should show the current temperature Press the l key (in
the upper right corner) and the key should turn green. The generator will fill with water and start heating
the room. Press the 0 key (in the top left corner) and the key should turn red and the generator will
stop heating.
e) If the generator has an electronic AutoDrain installed: The generator will go through a drain cycle
one hour after the bath has been turned off.

WARNING
AMEREC STEAMBATH GENERATORS
OR USE WITH STEAM SYSTEMS INCORPORATING
ONE AX PRIMARY STEAM GENERATOR AND
ONE OR TWO AX SECONDARY STEAM GENERATOR(S)
These instructions apply to the
AX4.5, AX6, AX7.5, AX9, AX11 and AX14
Save these instructions! Read all instructions carefully before installation.
These instructions supplement the AX steamer installation instructions,
Amerec document number 4211-119
Amerec Steam Generators are listed by ETL. The steamers come assembled and ready for installation. Check
that the size and rating of the steamers are suitable for your application; refer to Steam Room Construction and
Generator Sizing Guide (Amerec document 4211-36).
Amerec AX Steam Systems consist of one AX steamer acting as a “primary” steamer which may control one or
two other AX steamers. The sole purpose of ganging steamers is to increase the volume of steam generated
without using multiple controls. The primary steamer controls the secondary steamer(s) through an Amerec
control cable. Cables are available only from Amerec.
All controls must connect only to the primary steamer! An Elite control must be connected to the primary steamer!
IMPORTANT
An exhaust fan installed outside the steam room is strongly recommended to remove excess steam
from the bathroom or shower area.
The Amerec Steam Generator can be hung on a wall or set on its base. The best mounting location will
satisfy all or most of the following conditions:
1. The steam line should slope to allow condensation to drain into the steam room.
2. The steam line should be less than 20 ft (6m) long; 10 ft (3m) is preferred. Steam lines over 20 ft (6m)
long should be insulated.
3. The mounting location should minimize the number of bends and elbows in the steam line.
4. The steam line should enter the room 18” (460 mm) above the floor or at least 12” (305 mm)above a
tub rim or ledge.

! Do not put a shut-off valve in the steam line!
The line must be unrestricted from the steamer into the steam room!
To reduce the risk of explosion, do not interconnect steam outlets!
• Do not mount outdoors.
• Protect from freezing.
• Unit must be located so as to allow access for service.
• The steam steamer will not operate properly unless it is mounted level with the arrows pointed up.
• A separate line must be provided or each steam outlet.
• Avoid traps and valleys where water could collect and cause a steam blockage.|
• The hot steam must be insulated against user contact. Install the steam head so as to avoid potential
user contact.
• Do not install the steam head near benches or where condensation will drip on the user or puddle as
this will present a scald hazard.
• The pressure relief valve must be installed in manner that reduces the risk of scalding.
• Do Not drain the pressure valve or steamer into the steam room!
• Draining the pressure relief valve into the steam room may present a scald hazard!
IMPORTANT
Before deciding on a mounting location,
please read through these installation
instructions completely and take a careful
look at all of the diagrams.
An exhaust fan installed outside the
steam room is strongly recommended
in order to remove excess steam
from the steambath or shower area
It is strongly recommended that no exhaust
fan be installed inside the steam room. Doing
so will result in a loss of heat and steam
through the exhaust fan and port.
Insulate all steam lines and drain lines
within the enclosed space.
Each steamer must be provided with
at least six (6) inches for wiring
access at the control wiring end.
Each steamer must be provided with at least 15
inches (380mm) clearance at the pipe end.
There should be at least 36 inches (900mm)
in front of the louvered cover at
each steamer for service access.
