This dangerous exposure time dramatically reduces to 5 minutes for water set to 50 degrees, demonstrating the safety objective of the regulations.

The law requires that tempering valves be used to limit a tap’s hot water supply to 50 degrees in most homes or businesses.  The exception to these rules is facilities like nursing homes, day-care centres and health care providers that take care of vulnerable people with more sensitive skin.

These places come under a different regulation that requires temperatures to be set to a maximum of 45 degrees and they can instead use a thermostatic mixer – a different technology that is accurate to within 1 degree of the set temperature.

The element is submerged in the water and responds to temperature changes by expanding and contracting, adjusting the flow of each inlet valve to ensure the set temperature is maintained.  The thermostatic element is accurate to within 3 degrees, so temperatures can vary plus or minus 3 degrees from its setting.

A trap primer is a flow control valve that adds water to a P-trap to maintain a water seal, preventing sewer gases from entering a building.

If your hot water system was installed by a licensed professional after 2013, then it’s more than likely that you have a tempering valve already installed.  They are a standard part of general hot water plumbing, and whenever plumbers install or replace hot water systems, they are required to fill out licensing paperwork to ensure the rules are followed.

They are ready and waiting to answer any questions you have about tempering valves, water temperature settings or your hot water system.

A licensed plumber can adjust your tempering valve if you want to change the temperature it is set to.  Legally, it cannot be lifted above the maximum of 50 degrees, but if you want to reduce the temperature to protect people in your house or business, a plumber can set the valve to a lower temperature.  Most valves can be set between 35 to 50 degrees.  This is not something you can do yourself and requires a professional.

Tempering valves are safety devices designed to limit the temperature of the hot water coming out of your tap.  It mixes the extremely hot water that comes directly from the hot water system with cold water from the general water supply to send out water at whatever the maximum temperature the valve is set to.
