How thermostatic mixing valves work:

A thermostatic mixing valve calculates hot and cold water input flows to ensure the correct output temperature. While hot water storage is required at 60 degrees Celsius to inhibit Legionella bacteria growth, the safe tap water temperature should not exceed 50 degrees Celsius to prevent scalding.
Fallon Solutions conducts thermostatic valve testing to verify that your hot water meets the correct temperature standards.
