why thermostatic mixing valves are important
Thermostatic mixing valves are important if we like our hot water to be maintained at a safe temperature. A thermostatic mixing valve (TMV) is a valve that blends hot water with cold water to ensure constant, safe shower and bath outlet temperatures, preventing scalding. The storage of water at high temperature removes one possible breeding ground for Legionella; the use of a thermostat, rather than a static mixing valve, provides increased safety against scalding, and increased user comfort, because the hot-water temperature remains constant. Plumbing & Pipeline Solutions specialise in thermostatic mixing valve testing, to ensure your water is delivered at the required temperature.
ensuring safe water temperatures
At Plumbing & Pipeline Solutions, we prioritise the safety and comfort of our clients by implementing a meticulous process to maintain hot water temperatures within safe limits. With the understanding that water storage temperatures above 60°C are essential for preventing the growth of harmful bacteria, particularly those associated with Legionnaires Disease, we take proactive measures to install Thermostatic Mixing Valves (TMVs) that enable precise control and tempering of hot water to each outlet. By increasing water temperature by just 5°C from 55°C to 60°C, the risk of scalding third-degree burns decreases significantly from 17 seconds to just 5 seconds of exposure. Our experienced team ensures that TMVs are configured and calibrated to deliver water at safe and comfortable temperatures, while also adhering to Australian Standards and regulatory requirements. Through ongoing maintenance and service schedules, we prioritise compliance with industry standards, ensuring that your hot water system meets the highest standards of safety and quality.
