Remote Mount Blowers, are used to distribute the steam directly into the room. The drawings show the minimum recommended
distances to avoid the flow of humidified air from coming into direct contact with persons, lights, electrical appliances, and surfaces
before the steam has been totally absorbed by the environment. For further details on the assembly, the electrical connections and
