VL SERIES STEAMERS - GENERAL This causes several problems: NOTE: Adaptors vary between manufacturers. An example of one adaptor type is pictured below. 1. Reduce the heat transfer efficiency of the heating system. 2. Cause premature failure of Electric heaters. 3. Water level probes will give false readings. 4. Thermostat bulbs will sense temperature incorrectly. These problems are common to any manufacturer's steamer regardless of design, but they can all be prevented by furnishing the boiler w
