piping needs to go over an obstruction, or when interconnecting
piping runs are long.
Important: Steam hose must be supported to prevent sagging
or low spots.

Notes:
• Locate air gap only in spaces with adequate temperature and air movement to absorb flash steam; otherwise, condensation may form on nearby surfaces. Refer to governing codes for
drain pipe size and maximum discharge water temperature.
• Support steam hose so there are no sags or low spots.
• Dashed lines indicate provided by installer.
WARNING
Hot surface and steam hazard
Dispersion tube, steam hose, tubing, or
hard pipe can contain steam, and surfaces
can be hot. Discharged steam is not
visible. Contact with hot surfaces or air
into which steam has been discharged can
cause severe personal injury.
