Gravity Feed Water Bottle Steam Irons, Iron Rest, Demineralizer & Non-Stick Iron Teflon Iron Shoes

Gravity Feed Irons only have steam holes at the front by design. Steaming should be done slightly above the fabric, just before pressing strokes with a then dry soleplate which also helps to remove moisture. Steam is only required to relax the fibers before pressing dry. If you steam at the same time while using pressing strokes, it will add too much moisture to the fabric and cool the iron soleplate down. Gravity feed irons do not have continuous steam boilers, so steaming should be done intermitantly between pressing strokes, not constantly. That way that the iron soleplate and steam chamber does not have a chance to cool down and spit out condensation.

(Q)I have a small art business. I need to iron a lot of wool sweaters. I don't need an iron for delicate fabrics. What is the difference between the gravity fed iron and the steam generating iron?
(A)Both have continuous steam, but the soleplate temperture is adjustable on steam generator irons, even though the steam source stays the same temperature. Gravity feed irons can cool down quicker. with steam generator irons you have steam going into the iron, whereas with gravity feed you have cold water going into the steam chamber of the iron.

(Q)What is dry steam?
(A)The higher the temperature and pressure of the steam generating boiler, the less humidity is in the steam.

How to Use Gravity Feed Irons:
1. Hang bottle apx. 40 inches above pressing surface.
2. Connect the silicone hose to the iron and bottle.
3. Empty demineralizer package into the bottle and fill it with tap water only.
4. Tie the electrical cord and hose together.
5. Plug the iron cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
6. Set the temperature dial on NO. 4 and let the iron heat up for ten minutes.
7. Open the bottle valve and allow the hose to fill with water by pressing the steam switch. The iron is now ready for use.
8. When not pressing, place the iron on the supplied iron rest. Do not stand on its back!

These irons are for industrial use. Some major parts are UL/CE approved ( ex: 151504 thermostat),but as a whole it's not.
Even if it were UL/CES approved as a whole, it is not wise to use industrial irons in homes. The functioning of home irons and industrial irons are different. For instance, home irons have a function automatically to cut the electricity if the iron falls over. It may even make a sound or beep while industrial irons do not have such function.
Industrial irons are meant for use by professionals who know how to properly handle their equipment. The manufacturers of home use products have a much higher responsibility when putting their products in people's homes, and must provide special fail safes to protect the home user.
If a home user wishes to purchase and use industrial irons in their home they must be aware of the safety differences between home irons and industrial irons.
Home users of industrial irons must be mindful of the extra caution that must be used when using irons intended for industrial use in the home.
