Overall this is a good unit; however, the instructions are not very goodly wrote (see what I did there....). I have attached an image of the proper way to wire the unit, along with the correct gauge wiring and proper circuit breaker configuration. You are welcome to contact my friend at jayski1642@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Unit works very well. Try and install in an area where you have lots of working room. Tight spaces make plumbing and electrical work difficult. The unit does not appear to be CSA approved. This could make it difficult to get a licensed electrician to install the unit in Canada. Having said that, the unit appears well made. Hopefully the safety features work as required when necessary. Price is excellent compared to what you could pay for one of these units. If your water supply has lots of minerals in it, you may want to consider a sediment filter on the supply line. This could greatly extend the life of the unit.

Makes a lot of steam and fast. Hook up was simple have only used once after install, but is working great.

I installed this as a steam whole house humidifier. I wired it to a relay and low voltage contactor to make it come on when the furnace comes on. It works great and will bring the humidity up in the whole house very quickly. Excess condensate in the line causes a lot of burping of hot water rather than steam. I installed a drip line just before the head, that seemed to really help.

This is the biggest bang you'll get for the money! I initially bought the 9kw for a small enclosed shower (overseas where 220v is common), and the only issue I had was that i didn't think about the power rating!! 9kw needed a big circuit breaker!! I got it to work and the steamer was oversized :) :) heated that small shower in about 10min!! The install (besides the additional breaker and runing new cables) was straight forward, the cables are made in a way so can't connect them wrong (temp sensor, control unit, etc). Now that I'm back in the US, i picked up another unit and although i have a larger shower ( being converted into a steam room), i went for a smaller unit (learned my lesson) so i don't have to run new wiring, but instead I'll be taping into the electric range power cable (just won't be able to cook and steam at the same time ;). Again, great value and so far worked great ( I update once i install the smaller unit)

Works great very easy to install

Good

I went for this Steam Generator because of the other good reviews, and my thinking it was the best deal for the $140.00 I paid for the 6 kW version, after comparing it to other deals. I asked before purchasing about it being a 240ac split phase USA version, which differs from the European 220v single phase. I was happy to confirm by taking some panels off for inspection; to find all the inner wires were tight, it has a plastic cover (removed for the picture) that clearly shows where L1 & L2 electrical lines connect, with obvious grounding wire connection. I see good indicators this steam is properly wired for USA standards 240vac split phase (and I have wired up 3 houses). ... I still have to build my steam room; and intend to hook this for a steam test soon, before my steam room is finished. ... Hench my Thumbs up is holding back one star for until I do my steam testing; and update my review then. IMO: This is good deal after confirming kW version is a match to the cubic meters or cu ft you want to heat. My Two Cents :+)

Works like a charm. Easy to install and great customer support.F. L

no esperaba tanta eficiencia por su precio,pero trabaja de lo mejor,he quedado muy contento y lo recomiendo a otros interesados
