Why It Matters

A Faulty TMV Can Quietly Let Dangerously Hot Water Through

Thermostatic mixing valves keep hot water at a safe temperature at the tap, protecting kids, older people and anyone else at risk of scalding.

But they can wear out over time, and a faulty one can quietly let dangerously hot water through. We tested this customer’s TMV to check it was doing its job.

Regular testing is how you know the valve is still protecting the people using it.

What We Checked

Three Checks on Every TMV

Measured the outlet temperature

We measured the water temperature coming out of the outlet.

Tested the cold supply response

We checked that the valve responds properly if the cold supply drops.

Confirmed a safe temperature

We made sure the valve is delivering water at a safe temperature.
