Thermostatic mixing valves are often confused with tempering valves. Tempering valves are another similar type of temperature control valve used in hot water systems, but they work a bit differently.

Low water pressure can have multiple causes such as localised low water pressure or pressure favouring only selected plumbing fixtures. Other causes may include:

AETECH HP#7 electronic mixing valves are designed to reduce domestic hot water costs by as much as 40 percent. They are suitable for domestic hot water systems which use a recirculation loop with continuous pump operation.

Check to ensure that your main water valve is open all the way. If no other issues cause low water pressure, the water pressure regulator may be malfunctioning, requiring cleaning, adjustment, or replacement.

Electronic mixing valves are most often used in domestic hot water applications where traditional non-instant water heaters are installed.

If the water pressure is too high, supply lines can suffer from loose fittings, water hammering, and banging. Toilet tank assemblies may be forced open so water will continuously leak into the bowl. If the water pressure is too low, the washing machine, dishwasher, and bathtub will take a long time to fill. You may not be able to use more than one plumbing tap at a time. Showers will dribble instead of spray.

In 1996, he transitioned to a pneumatic sales technician role at MasterMac2000, where he excelled in key account management, providing cost-effective solutions, and managing a sales team of 9 employees.

Most commercial applications are better suited to instant hot water heaters than they are to water heater mixing valves. However, if your site is using traditional non-instant water heaters, then you can benefit from a digital thermostatic mixing valve.

Always call a professional and licensed plumber to clean, repair, or replace the pressure regulator. If not assembled back correctly, the regulator will leak continuously. Plumbing professionals also know how to adjust the settings on pressure regulators. The wrong settings will damage pipes and other fixtures.

Overall, a tempering valve is really only suited for installation in single-family homes. A thermostatic mixing valve is better suited to larger installations in apartment buildings, multi-family homes, and hotels.

Tempering valves are not as precise. They are only able to maintain water temperatures to within 5.4°F (3°C) of the preset temperature. They are also slower to respond to water temperature changes.

Hot water mixing valve

High water pressure is always related to intense pressure coming from the local water supply or a local well. If the water pressure regulator isn’t properly adjusted, the device isn’t reducing water pressure before the flow enters the pipes.

In a typical home, you’ll likely find a gas-fired hot water heater which must periodically reheat water to maintain a relatively high temperature. These applications are perfect for electronic mixing valve installations.

Under Stuart's leadership, MasterMac2000 has been servicing the industry since 1988, with 5 full-time sales representatives covering northern rivers NSW, Queensland, Northern Territory, and PNG. The company prides itself on providing the best-priced solutions to all customers in the marketplace.

Pressure regulators are high performing cylinders or valves that are designed to provide reliable control of pressure in the various stages of a flow system. The output pressure of a pressure regulator is sensed through a diaphragm or flow control valve. This in turn decompresses or compresses a spring inside the regulator. The compression of the spring will determine if the flow through the regulator will decrease or increase by moving either closer to the orifice or farther away.

A thermostatic mixing valve is used when more precise control over water temperature is needed. A thermostatic mixing valve can maintain water temperature to within as close as 1.8°F (1°C) of the preset level. They can also instantly adjust inlet water flow to change outlet water temperature.

A pressure regulator may need adjustment if there is a continuous water pressure issue such as the water pressure being too high or too low. If the issue/s continue after the regulator is adjusted, it may need to be replaced.

Pressure regulators wear out like other normal plumbing fixtures. Internal components may corrode or become filled with scaled or gummed calcium deposits. The internal O-rings or washers can degrade and need replacement.
