In this article, we show you how to do so. ## What is the AromaSteam System? AromaSteam from Mr.Steam allows you to combine aromatherapy with your steam experience by automatically infusing scent into your Mr.Steam steam shower. As this [44 second AromaSteam video](https://vimeo.com/62070199) demonstrates, aroma will be evenly and consistently infused within the steam for an optimum aromatherapy experience. [MrSteam: AromaTherapy](https://vimeo.com/62070199) from [Mr.Steam](https://vimeo.com/mrsteam) on [Vimeo](https://vimeo.com). ## What is an Aroma Request Cable? The Aroma Request Cable is what connects the AromaSteam System to the steam shower generator, providing an even infusion of [steamtherapy](http://www.mrsteam.com/steamtherapy) oils into your steam shower. To merge scented oil and steam into a sensual mix, the AromaSteam injector pump atomizes the oil and creates the perfect in-steam aromatherapy experience. ## Where Should You Place the AromaSteam System? You'll want to install the AromaSteam System in an easily accessible location so you can monitor and replace the essential oils that the system uses. Although the system connects to the steam generator, it should not be installed directly below or above the Mr.Steam steam generator where it will be subject to heat. The ambient temperature at and around the AromaSteam system shouldn't exceed 90° F. The minimum distance between the system and a source of heat -  e.g. the steam generator or a heating system -  is 1.5 ft. If you can't maintain this minimum distance, consider installing a radiation plate or heat insulation between the heat source and the Aroma system. >> [Read the AromaSteam Operation and Installation Instructions](http://prodrep.mrsteam.com/DocumentResources/2f5977f7-2d82-4034-89e7-86125d1abdfa.pdf.pdf). ## How To Connect the AromaSteam System Request Cable [Kris Lee, Mr.Steam Technical Sales Representative](https://blog.mrsteam.com/meet-kris-lee-mr.steam-technical-sales-representative) explains in the following video how to connect the aroma request cable to your steam generator. Kris details three steps: 1. Make sure the **power is off** to the steam generator at the main breaker. 2.** Route** the AromaSteam’s grey request cable into your steam generator and **plug it into** the two terminals in the back right-hand corner marked "aroma." (See page 6 of the Operation and Installation Instructions.)  3. Next,** Test** your aroma pump by turning on the power and selecting the AromaSteam option from your control panel. (Although Kris makes it look easy to connect the aroma cable, Mr.Steam recommends using a professional to do so. ) Here is the [44 second how-to video](https://vimeo.com/113623029) on connecting your AromaSteam.
