Frequently Asked Questions

The Crown GSX-16HE steamer requires a 120 Volt, 60 Hertz, single-phase electrical connection with a maximum draw of 4 Amps. It comes with a 6-foot cord and a 3-prong plug (NEMA 5-15P), and a separate 15 Amp supply is needed for each unit.
To ensure optimal performance and warranty coverage, the water supply to the steamer must meet specific guidelines: Total dissolved solids less than 60 PPM, Total alkalinity less than 20 PPM, Silica less than 13 PPM, Chlorine less than 1.5 PPM, and a pH Factor between 6.8 - 7.3. Use of Middleby's Water Treatment System is recommended if water does not meet these standards.
Yes, the steamer must be installed on non-combustible floors. It requires 0" clearance on the left and right sides and 6" clearance from the back from both combustible and non-combustible construction. Adequate clearances for air openings and servicing must also be maintained.
The Delime mode helps prevent mineral buildup within the steam generator, while the automatic blowdown feature periodically flushes out the boiler, contributing to easier maintenance and extended equipment life. Failure or malfunction due to poor water quality and scale buildup is not covered under warranty.
A 3/4" IPS (Iron Pipe Size) supply line is required for the gas connection. The unit can operate on either natural gas with a supply pressure between 6"-14" W.C. or propane with a supply pressure between 12"-14" W.C.
