What is TMV
A Thermostatic Mixing Valve is a device that blends hot water and cold water to achieve a desired temperature for a plumbing system. It is typically used in showers, baths, and other fixtures to regulate the temperature of the water coming out of the taps.
The valve works by sensing the temperature of the incoming hot and cold water and adjusting the mix to achieve a set temperature. This ensures that the water is not too hot or too cold, which can cause discomfort or even scalding. The valve also helps to prevent fluctuations in water temperature due to changes in water pressure or supply.
Thermostatic mixing valves are important in maintaining a safe and comfortable environment in homes, hospitals, schools, and other public places. They help to prevent burns and scalding accidents by ensuring that the water temperature is always at a safe level
