TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT RANGE
The mixer has a temperature stop to prevent
accidental rotation to higher temperatures. This
is adjustable to provide a maximum temperature
of 35°C – 45°C.
The mixed water temperature can be adjusted
from cold through to a top limit (which can
be pre-set during installation – factory set
at approximately 38°C) with full anti-scald
protection throughout the range.
Recommended Outlet Temperatures
The
BuildCert TMV
scheme recommends the
following set maximum mixed water outlet
temperatures for use in all premises:
44°C - for bath fill but see notes below.
41°C - for showers.
41°C - for washbasins.
38°C - for bidets.
The mixed water temperatures must never
exceed
46°C
at terminal fitting.
The British Burns Association recommends
37
to
37.5°C
as a comfortable bathing temperature
for children. In premises covered by the Care
Standards Act 2000, the maximum mixed water
outlet temperature is
43°C
.
ADJUSTING THE MAXIMUM
TEMPERATURE STOP SETTING
Remove the end trim from the temperature
control to allow access to the retaining
screw. Undo the retaining screw and pull the
temperature control off
(fig.21)
.
The maximum temperature stop does not need
to be removed.
Turn the flow control to full flow. With a steady
flow running, adjust the temperature spindle
until the temperature is about 38°C
(fig.22)
.
When the showering temperature is satisfactory,
turn off the shower. Refit the temperature
control.
Secure the temperature control in place with the
screw and fit the trim.
