TEMPERING VALVES: WHAT ARE THEY?

September 15, 2021

Do you know what are Tempering Valves? Have you ever heard about them?

Well, Tempering Valves are devices that are being widely used to blend hot and cold water to produce water that is at the optimum temperature for usage in basins and bathtubs, among other things. They are often seen in motels and business facilities, as well as other places.

Is your water temperature not fine? Is it too hot or too cold?

This is a major sign indicating that your Tempering Valve isn’t working properly. Therefore, it is unable to cool water enough to make it perfect for usage. If the water coming out is too cold, this could also be a hint of faulty Tempering Valve.

Don’t overlook these signs; you need might some expert assistance to fix this.

Does your country demand that you have a tempering valve attached?

Yes, if you are a resident of Australia, Tempering Valves are a legal requirement. These valves often accompany water heaters as a result. And so, you definitely need one for yourself!

How do these valves’ function?

Such valves operate by equally merging hot and cold water, resulting in the least risky water temperature for the consumer. If the valve is functioning properly, individuals will not be burnt or blistered by the high temperature of the water flowing through it.

Where would you find Tempering Valves?

These gadgets are placed right between your hot and cold-water frameworks to ensure an ideal balance of both. Coldwater from your freshwater resources enters via the intake valve and goes to the tempering valve, where it is mixed with hot water before being released to your restroom, kitchen, and washing faucets.

I am sure you are concerned about your safety, and so, you never wish on being burned by the extremely hot water flowing in your basin or sink. Contact Pinnacle Plumbing to help you with the easy and quick installation of these valves!
