THERmOstatic mixing valves (TMV)
Thermostatic Mixing Valves (TMVs) play a critical role in maintaining safe water temperatures, particularly in environments where scalding risks are high. At Starr Plumbing Services, we provide comprehensive TMV installation and upgrades, testing and maintenance to ensure your systems remain compliant, safe, and operating as intended.
What is a TMV?
A Thermostatic Mixing Valve (TMV) blends hot and cold water to deliver water at a controlled, safe temperature. These devices are essential in preventing scalding while still allowing water systems to operate at higher temperatures for hygiene and bacteria control.
Why TMV Testing is Important
Over time, TMVs can wear, drift out of calibration, or fail altogether. Regular testing ensures:
- Safe water temperatures are consistently maintained
- Compliance with Australian Standards and health regulations
- Reduced risk of scalding injuries, particularly in vulnerable environments
- Reliable performance of your hot water system
