Clues explained

Iron
Iron: Many clothes irons vent steam through small holes to relax fabric fibers and help remove wrinkles during pressing.
Iron horse (old-style train)
Iron horse (old-style train): The nickname evokes steam locomotives, which ran by boiling water to create steam power for motion.
Sauna
Sauna: A sauna often creates bursts of steam when water hits heated stones, raising humidity and intensifying the perceived heat.
Pressure cooker
Pressure cooker: A pressure cooker traps steam to build pressure, which raises boiling temperature and speeds up cooking in a sealed pot.
Tea kettle (when whistling)
Tea kettle (when whistling): A whistling tea kettle signals escaping steam passing through a small opening, producing a distinctive high-pitched sound.
