General nformation
This product has been tested to the TMV3 scheme which complies with the BS EN
1287:1999 (LP) and BS EN 1111:1999 (HP) thermostatic mixing valve standards and
satisfies the requirements of the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 and
current bylaws.
BS6700 recommends the temperature of stored water should never exceed 65ºC. A
stored water temperature of 60ºC is considered sufficient to meet all normal
requirements and will minimise the build up of lime scale in hard water areas (see Map
of Hard Water Regions in the UK on page 27).
f the fitting is installed at low pressure (tank fed), then the minimum distance from the
highest installed position of the showerhead to the underside of the cold tank should be
at least 1 metre to ensure adequate performance.
Note:
Note: Note:
Note:
Nominally equal (balanced) inlet supply pressures are recommended for optimum
