Warning Sign Installation - Delta 5COM-PAC Manual

A) Do not permit children to use the steam bath unless they are closely supervised at all times.
B) Wet surfaces of the steam enclosures may be slippery. The floor should be skid resistant. Bathers should use care when entering and exiting the
steam enclosure.
C) The steam head is hot. Bathers should not touch the steam head and should avoid contact with steam near the steam head.
D) Prolonged use of the steam bath can excessively raise the internal human body temperature and impair the body's ability to regulate its internal
temperature (hyperthermia). Limit the use of steam to 10 – 15 minutes until you are certain of your body's reaction.
E) Excessive temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy. Pregnant or possibly
pregnant women should consult a physician regarding correct exposure. Obese persons and persons with a history of heart disease, low
or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using the steam bath.
F) Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a steam bath since some medication may induce drowsiness while
other medications may affect heart rate, blood pressure and circulation.
G) The facility manager should fully understand the causes, symptoms, and effects of hyperthermia which may be described as follows:
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:
1. Failure to perceive heat.
2. Failure to recognize the need to exit the steam bath.
3. Physical inability to exit the steam bath.
4. Unawareness of impending risk.
5. Fetal damage in pregnant women.
6. Unconsciousness.
H) The facility manager/owner is responsible for building and operating the steam room in a safe manner that is appropriate for the needs of their
clientele. The facility manager/owner must be fully knowledgeable of all safety concerns and how to manage them. This includes but is not limited
to the design of the steam room, the placement of the steam head, temperature settings and allowable usage times, and signage. The facility
manager/owner must be familiar with all product safety warnings; instructions for operation; and all applicable codes, regulations, and ordinances.
Additionally, there may be local government requirements regarding the operation of a steam room in your area. It is strongly recommended that the
facility manager/owner seeks the assistance and advice of a professional plumber.
