can this be installed in a wet sauna shower/steam area?

Yes that is what I got them for. But this is only the cover. You also need the recessed light that they work with.

Thanks. The ones sold by the steam unit companies are ridiculously expensive.

No you dont want to use it in the shower itself but you could set it outside the shower curtain and use. We have, no steam problem still worked great. Some people say battery drains quick... we just plugged ours in so we dont have that problem. Hope this helps you. We bought three def worth the money.

yes, but I would recommend this for a dedicated single faucet/shower configuration, this is NOT a whole house heater.

I have lots of steam in my shower too and no problems. Battery lasts a long time and I do not have it directly in the water however if I dropped it in the water I would not be worried.

I don't see why not cause it is made for bathrooms and bathrooms make a lot of steam . But the company tells you to install it upright just for that reason. The fan works great, pulls a lot of air and is quiet. I don't think that you will have any problems at all. Good luck

Nope!But I use it in the bathroom and it's all right if this is what you wish to know.By the way,I didn't let water spill on it,only steam.

I have used mine in my bathroom for a very long time. If you have a sauna type situation then it maybe could be a problem. Maybe you should check with the manufacturer.

I don't know why not. I use it in the shower. A few drops on the floor mixed with the steam. I would imagine that a few drops in the tub would be very nice.

Yes, but it must be dry. Not suitable for wet or damp situations. Check your local building code also to be sure your installation is compliant.

You should be able to I had it installed in my salon underneath the cabinets next to my shampoo bowls. And know on busy days we don't run out of hot water! Hope this helps!

Nope, it cannot be used in shower. There is a label on it which clearly indicates to keep the device away from water

Yes, it can be. I have 2 in the bathroom. One is mounted directly in the shower. When you mount it directly in the shower you need to put it on a GFI circuit as recommend by the mfg or install a GFI circuit breaker to cover everything on the circuit if you don't want to wire it separately.

As Jimmy69 advised I would not install in shower area w/o it being on a GFI protected circuit. It is not a waterproof sealed unit.

Yes, ours is in a small cabin in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan where it's damp and humidity is high all the time. It works great with no trouble. It's right next to the sauna and we're planning to put a shower head in the sauna using this heater for showering. We've been using it for a couple of years now.

No, it doesn't produce enough steam for a sauna unless you bought multiple units. I use a single unit for a 8 foot section of 4" PVC pipe and it works fine for that application, but a sauna room? I don't think so.

I would think not. I believe if I was doing something like that I would want water pressure similar to my shower.

We do not recommend using this in a shower area. This unit's operating humidity range has a maximum 80% with no condensation.
