Steam Generator Chart

To determine the necessary size, or Kilowatts, of the steam generator required, measure the length, width and height (in feet) of the steam room. Multiply the three measurements together to get the room volume in cubic feet:
L x W x H = Cubic Feet	Example:
Multiply the cubic footage by the appropriate wall finish factor from the list below. Wall finish is important in selecting steam generator size as different materials have a different level of heat absorption. Multiply that result by a steam line factor (if applicable).	A steam shower with ceramic as the interior wall finish and dimensions of 7 ft length, 5 ft width and 7 ft height:
	7 x 5 x 7 =245 The Steam Room Cubic Footage is 245
	The ceramic tile interior wall finish requires a 25% increase to the cubic footage:
Ceramic Tile 25% (.25) Natural Stone 100% (1.0) Fiber Glass/Acrylic 0% (0) Glass Block Wall 10% (.10) Glass Wall 10% (.10)	245 x .25 = 61.25 ft
	Add the wall finish cubic footage increase to the original steam room cubic footage for the total:
	245 + 61.25 = 306.25 ft
- Steam line longer than 50 ft 20% (.20) - Steam line subject to freezing 25% (.25)	Select an appropriate steam generator size using the table below. Always select the next size larger steam generator which exceeds the calculated room cubic feet. In this case, a 9kw generator is required.
