Pictured here is an adjustable high pressure regulator that has been installed next to a metal cooking pit. The regulator has been exposed to such high temperatures that the paint has all been "baked" off. All high pressure regulators are red in color. This regulator is installed in an extremely unsafe manner.
Thermostatic mixing valves are used to maintain the domestic hot water supplied to the user at a constant and safe temperature, when variations in the hot and cold water supply conditions and draw off flow rates occur. The mixcal III range has been designed primarily for single user outlets including wash basins, showers, baths and bidets but is also suitable for multiple outlet use.

A tempering valve is used in systems where the water in the storage cylinder can reach temperatures significantly above 60°C. In the event of failure of the hot or cold water supplies the tempering valve will automatically shut down in line with the BS EN 15092 test standard.
The Mixcal Careflo Plus® failsafe thermostatic mixing valves have been designed and manufactured to meet the requirements of BS 7942:2011.This valve has a unique feature which allows for thermal disinfection to be performed through to the outlets, helping to protect against Legionella and other microbial organisms. The 101-3001 has a universal tailpiece and adapter and 101-3002 comes complete with universal MX ends with adapter.

The failsafe merchant thermostatic mixing valve has been specifically designed and manufactured to meet the requirements of the latest National Health Service model engineering specification - D08 and BS 7942 for use in vulnerable person applications. Approved to EN1287:2017 and EN1111:2017 and therefore suitable for domestic applications in compliance with Part G of the Building Regulations.

All ASME propane tanks in service are required to have a regulator installed no more than 36 inches from the tank's service valve (see Regulator Connection). Regulators that are installed at the tank will be either a single stage regulator, high pressure regulator or integral two-stage regulator and must be protected from the elements by one of two means: 1) The regulator being shielded by means of a suitable cover such as the tank dome (pictured above) or 2) The regulator being installed with the vent facing down if installed without a cover. The underlying principle with regard to tank regulator installation is to protect the regulator's vent from anything that could enter through the vent.
The mixcal III group thermostatic mixing valve has been designed especially for centralised systems which demand high flow rates, for example with multiple outlets such as shower and wash basins.

The primary feature of a TMV is that it offers additional safety via a thermal shutdown mechanism. In the event of a disruption to the hot or cold water supply to the valve, the failsafe design shuts off the mixed water flow automatically.

Propane regulator installation is a complicated process for those unfamiliar with LP Gas systems. The actual installation itself may be seem simple but there's a good bit more to the process than one might realize. Regulators are to be installed by LP Gas professionals only. Attempting to install a regulator yourself is dangerous and often illegal. This page will provide an understanding of what to look for in a regulator installation, not instructions on how to install a propane regulator.
Thermostatic mixing valves (also known as blending valves, TMVs or simply mixing valves) are used to maintain the domestic hot water supplied to the user, at a constant and safe temperature.

Second stage regulators are easily spotted installed alongside a building (pictured left) with the yard line coming out of the ground into the inlet of the regulator and the regulator outlet connected to the piping that enters the building housing the LP gas appliances. Second stage regulators installed in this manner should have the vent pointed vertically down and at least 3 feet away from any building opening. See Two Stage Regulation for more information about second stage propane regulators

The Altecnic TMV range covers use with hot and cold water, with inlet pressures of up to 14 bar, maximum inlet temperatures of 85°C, and temperature controls of +/-2°C. Why use a TMV? In domestic settings, TMVs are particularly important where young children and the elderly are present. Typically, people in these demographics are at particular risk of life-threatening scalds due to a potential lack of mobility and skin sensitivity. Fitting can be a legal requirement.

Second stage regulators are installed away from the tank, often on the outside wall of a building or near the propane gas appliance, such as an outdoor pool heater. The reason behind installing a second stage regulator involves efficiency and the economy of the installation. If high BTU demand appliances are located a good distance from the propane tank, the piping will have to be of a much larger diameter if an integral two stage regulator is installed, not to mention much more expensive. Downstream second stage regulators work in unison with first stage and high pressure regulators installed at the tank and allow for expansion of the gas system and future addition of LP Gas appliances.
