That's a first! American Plumbing, LMP #556

Before our bible study last night, the police stopped by to advise us the neighbors were complaining about too many vehicles on the street. The officer made the comment that previously she came to the house because the music was too loud. Of course, we prayed for the officer before she left. After the officer departed, J.T. led provided us with a great word!

What is a tempering valve? www.americanplumbingla.com #americanplumbing #geriatricgymrat #temperingvalve #federalgovernment #plumbingrepairs A tempering valve is a plumbing safety device that mixes hot water with cold water to deliver water at a controlled, safe temperature. What it does Reduces very hot water from a heater to a preset temperature Prevents scalding at taps, showers, or fixtures Keeps water temperature consistent even if pressure or supply changes Where it’s commonly used Domestic hot water systems (homes, apartments) Bathrooms, showers, sinks Solar and heat-pump water heaters (which often store water at higher temperatures) Hospitals, schools, childcare centers (where safety standards are strict) Why it’s important Water heaters are often set to 60°C (140°F) or higher to prevent bacteria like Legionella Tempering valves typically reduce outlet temperature to around 45–50°C (113–122°F), which is much safer for skin How it works (simple) Hot water enters the valve Cold water enters the valve The valve blends them to a set temperature Mixed water exits to fixtures Tempering valve vs thermostatic mixing valve (TMV) Tempering valve: Usually serves an entire house or group of fixtures TMV: More precise, often used at individual outlets (like a single shower)
