HYPERTHERMIA occurs when the internal
temperature of the body reaches a level several
degrees above the normal body temperature of
98.6° F. The symptoms of hyperthermia include an
increase in the internal temperature of the body,
dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The
effects of hyperthermia include:
a) Failure to perceive heat;
b) Failure to recognize the need to exit the steam-
bath;
c) Unawareness of impending risk;
d) Fetal damage in pregnant women;
e) Physical inability to exit the steambath; and
f) Unconsciousness.
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medi-
cation can greatly increase the risk of hyperthermia.

Installation Instructions for AirTempo
STEP 1
Determine the desired installation location of the control. The AirTempo
controls are designed to be installed inside or outside the steam room as a
matter of personal preference. If the control is installed outside the steam
room a Remote Temperature Probe part number MSTS must be installed
inside the steam room.
IMPORTANT NOTE: See installation instructions for the MSTS
Temperature Probe (pgs. 8-9) before rough-in or installation of control.
If the control is installed inside the steam room the control must be located:
• 4-5 feet above the oor near the bather seating area.
• On a vertical wall
The control features an integral temperature sensor. Locate the control in a
location representative of the desired steam bathing temperatures. Do not
locate the control above or near the steam head or direct steam emissions.
Locating the controls near the steamhead or near direct steam emissions
may result in poor steam room temperature control.
The control can be located up to 60 feet from the wireless receiver.
Construction materials affect the communication between the control
and receiver. Test the range of the AirTempo. It may be necessary to
change the location of the wireless receiver to improve the range. Contact
MrSteam technical service for an optional 30 or 60 foot cable.
STEP 2
The AirTempo control can be surface or ush
mounted according to personal preference.
Flush mount components are sold separately
(104232DR & 104232SQ). Contact a MrSteam
representative if a ush mount kit is needed.
Surface Mount AirTempo
Remove the surface mount bayonet from the back of
the AirTempo Control.
Remove and discard the release paper to expose the adhesive liner.
Ensure the mounting surface is clean and dry.
Place the bayonet on the wall in the desired
location.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The surface mount bayonet
supports the weight of the AitTempo control, if
requires use the screw and anchor provided to
secure the bayonet to the wall.
When installing AirTempo on glass, the peel and stick film provided
may be used as a mounting pad for a clean look from behind the glass.
Flush Mount AirTempo
IMPORTANT NOTE: Flush mount components are sold separately
(104232RD & 104232SQ). Contact a MrSteam representative if a
ush mount kit is needed.
Remove the surface mount bayonet from the back of the AirTempo
control. The surface mount bayonet is not used with ush mounting.
Using the template provided on page 17, cut the hole in the desired
location. Do not oversize or undersize the cutout. Ensure the
template is level before cutting the hole.
Test t the ush mount box to ensure the hole is the correct size.
Ensure the mounting surface is clean and dry
Apply a thin bead of silicone in the location shown as required to
create a moisture seal. Remove and discard the release paper to
expose the adhesive liner.
NOTE: The silicone supplied by MrSteam can be used for a variety
of sealing and gasketing. It cures to silicone rubber and adheres to
glass, wood, metal, porcelain, ceramic tile, painted surfaces, many
plastics and rubber. Surfaces must be clean and dry. Apply thin
layer of product. Fit together and support if necessary. Allow excess
material to cure, then trim with a sharp blade. Sealant “skins” in 5
minutes, dries to touch in 1 hour. Fully cures and bonds in 24 hrs.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not apply
excessive amounts of silicone. Do not
apply silicone to any other parts of the
control including the adhesive gasket.
Place the ush mount box into the hole.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The magnet in the
ush mount box should be orientated at
the bottom of the box when installed.
