EN: Installation location and mounting

A steam shower column may not be installed in a space where it may freeze or be exposed to harmful substances. The space must be equipped with a floor drain for the waste water.

The installation of this steam shower column in a Harvia Nova steam shower cabin is found in the steam shower cabin's installation instructions.

See figures » Installation of steam shower column

  1. Place the lower wall bracket in the desired place and mark the positions of the holes. Drill 8-mm holes for the nylon plugs, and insert the plugs in the holes. Screw on the lower wall bracket.
  2. Screw on the upper wall brackets on the steam shower column with M6 screws. Lift the steam shower column over the lower wall bracket, and mark the positions of the holes further up on the wall. Lift off the steam shower column. Drill 8-mm holes for the nylon plugs, and insert the plugs in the them.
  3. Screw on the ceiling shower pipe and the shower head.
  4. Connect the water pipes in the 3/4" connections. (cold = blue and hot = red) Ensure waterproofness. If you are installing lights and/or a fan as an accessory, the cables must be run at this point inside the steam shower column. Only one cable sealing clamp feedthrough has been made for one cable. If you need a feedthrough for another cable, you have to add an M20 cable sealing clamp in place of the rubber plug.
  5. Lift the steam shower column back over the lower bracket and fix the M6 nuts on the screws that go through the lower bracket.
  6. Screw on the upper wall brackets.
  7. Connect the hand shower hose to the screw-type coupling found under the hand shower bracket.
  8. Fix in place the technical space glass and steam nozzle. Do not tighten the steam nozzle too much, instead, leave in the horizontal position as shown in the figure.
  9. Connect the control panel's data cable and install it in a suitable place (» Installing the control panel)
  10. Plug in the steam shower column into the mains.

  • Lighting and fan: You can also install lighting and a fan for the steam shower column. These can be used from the control panel.
  • Water filter: Tap water may contain impurities, such as lime, which may accumulate in the steam generator's interior. To prevent this and to extend the life of the steam shower column, we recommend that you use a Harvia HWF01S water filter.
  • Steam fragrances: Fragrance added in the fragrance channel will feed the fragrance into the steam created by the steamer. For optimal experience we recommend Harvia fragrance liquids (Harvia Sauna and fragrance liquid set SAC25100). Note: Do not use any other than fragrance liquid designed for vaporisers.

- decalcification

HARVIA Nova SWA20U1XA - Before maintenance, unplug the device and close the water shut-off valves! - 1

All other maintenance must be left to professional maintenance personnel.

Steam generators in community, institution and such use must be serviced thoroughly at least twice a year (checking and cleaning the reservoir, heating elements and the water level sensor).

Cleaning the water level sensor

Remove any limescale by wiping or, if necessary, sanding with fine sandpaper. Remove the steam nozzle by turning it counterclockwise. First, remove the protective caps of the mounting screws of the glass and then remove the screws. Remove the glass carefully. Loosen the nut of the water level sensor and clean the sensor.

Descaling

Tap water contains impurities, such as lime, which may accumulate inside the steam generator and form clogs over time. The amount of lime in the water (hardness), and consequently the need for descaling, varies from region to region. If the tap water is hard, it is advisable to install a water filter on the inlet side of the steam generator. The water filter HWF01S for the steam shower column is sold separately. See »Water-quality requirements.

Descaling with a citric-acid solution

The vapour produced by the citric-acid solution is harmless. In addition to citric-acid solution, other substances can be used for descaling as well. Always follow the instructions on the package.

  1. Mix 50–80 g of citric acid with one litre of water.
  2. Turn the steam generator on and let it run for 10 minutes.
  3. Unplug the steam generator
  4. Remove the nozzle of the steam shower column and the glass for the technical space (see Cleaning the water level sensor)
  5. Remove the plug at the end of the service hose and pour the citric-acid solution into the water tank. Note: The capacity of the water tank is about 0.6 litres. Put the plug of the service hose back on and replace the nozzle and the glass for the technical space.
  6. Plug the steam generator back in. If the memory for power failures is on, the device will start automatically.
  7. Turn the steam generator on and let it run for 10 minutes.
  8. Turn the steam generator off and wait for 30 minutes.

Cleaning the steam nozzle

The steam nozzle can be cleaned with a mild soap solution.

Troubleshooting

If an error occurs, the control panel will show a device number and an error message, which helps troubleshooting the cause for the error.

HARVIA Nova SWA20U1XA - Troubleshooting - 1
