Description
The Mr. Steam MS225RB1X is a 7.5kW, 208V single-phase MS Series steam shower generator for residential steam rooms up to 161 cubic feet of adjusted room volume. This model has factory-installed Express Steam: a low-power heating element and thermostat keep the water in the tank warm, so steam comes up quicker. It is built with a stainless steel tank and installs out of sight, up to 60 feet from the steam room, in a closet, vanity cabinet, heated attic or basement.
