Thermostatic mixingvalvetemperature setting

A TMV works by mixing hot and cold water together to achieve a particular temperature (within 1°C +/-) to be delivered in various. The temperature is usually preset by a plumber or a qualified tradesperson who has installed the device, and the element within a TMV that is sensitive to thermal activity automatically arranges the appropriate levels of hot/cold water to create the correct temperature of the liquid.

Oneflow transforms the outdated contract process into a wonderfully connected pre-sign, sign, and post-sign digital experience.

For two reasons – for safety and in accordance with the regulations. For the safety of those using a tap and to avoid injuries such as scalding, a tempering valve or TMV ensures the water being released from the faucet is not above 60°C (140°F) for tempering valves or 45°C (113°F) for TMVs. Additionally, in accordance with Australian regulations (National Plumbing and Drainage Standard AS/NZS 3500.4: 2003), various water installations are not permitted to deliver water at a temperature higher than 60°C/45°C for different fixtures.

Tempering valves are adjustable and temperature-activated, meaning they moderate hot water flow when necessary to ensure water isn’t too hot when it is delivered to a tap. Hot water that is stored in a hot water storage system should be kept at a temperature of at least 60°C, however, water should be delivered through a faucet at a maximum of 50°C. A tempering valve works by blending hot water with cold water so it flows through your tap at the correct temperature, within 3°C +/-.

The wonderful little device that helps achieve the right hot water temperature is either a tempering valve or a thermostatic mixing valve, which can easily be mixed up but are actually two different things. To help you decipher between the two and figure out which one is best for your needs, take a read of the below information or give Brisbane Plumbing and Drainage a call on 1300 616 203 and we would be happy to assist.
