Table 3 - Normal Conditions of Use for Type 3 Valves
Note 1: The valve may perform adequately outside the conditions in table 3 but the TMV3 scheme approval does
not apply.
Note 2: The highest flow rates will be achieved under balanced pressure conditions, but the pressure at the valve
inlets must be within a ratio of 2:1 under flow conditions and the size and layout of pipe work and fittings must take
this into account.
PRE-COMMISSIONING CHECKS
Follow this method for adjusting the water temperature:
1. Remove the maroon plastic protective cap on top of the valve with a
screw-driver.
2. Back-out the nut, using a monkey spanner:
-To increase the temperature turn anti-clockwise
-To decrease the temperature turn clockwise
-To set the valve to a maximum mixed water temperature in
accordance with the valve application (See Table 4).
Once the correct outlet temperature is set the internal mechanism must
be tested at least 3 times by:
•Alternately isolate the hot & cold water supply. This causes the internal
piston to travel its full stroke and will ensure correct operation
of the valve.
•With hot & cold isolation valves and the terminal outlet fully open retest
the flow temperature. If the set temperature has moved, repeat the
commissioning process.
•A fail safe test must be carried out by isolating the cold
supply. Once isolated, the flow must reduce, within a couple
of seconds, to a trickle - depending on site conditions, supply
temperature/pressure.
•Then repeat fail safe test isolating the hot supply. Once
isolated, the flow must reduce to a trickle within a couple of
seconds – depending on site conditions.
•If either the cold or hot fail safe function does not operate, check;
-Supply pressures
-Supply temperatures
-Hot water supply is at least 10ºC above required mix temperature,
i.e. minimum hot to mix temperature

COMMISIONING
Since the installed supply conditions are likely to be different from those applied in the
laboratory tests, it is appropriate, at commissioning, to carry out some simple checks and tests
on each mixing valve to provide a performance reference point for future in-service tests.
a) The designation (TMV3) of the Thermostatic Mixing Valve matches the intended application.
b) The supply pressures are within the range of operating pressures for the designation of
the valve.
c) The supply temperatures are within the range permitted for the valve and within guidance
information on the prevention of legionella etc.
d) Record the temperature of the hot and cold water supplies.
e) Record the temperature of the mixed water at the largest draw-off flow rate.
f) Record the temperature of the mixed water at a smaller draw-off flow rate.
g) Isolate the cold water supply to the mixing valve and monitor the mixed water temperature.
h) Record the maximum temperature achieved as a result of (g) and the final
stabilised temperature.
Note: The final stabilised mixed water temperature should not exceed the values in the following table.
i) Use recording equipment such as a thermometer etc. used for the measurements.

IN SERVICE TESTING
Purpose
The purpose of in-service tests is to regularly monitor and record the performance of the
Thermostatic Mixing Valve. Deterioration in performance can indicate the need for service work
on the valve and/or the water supplies.
Service Work Procedure
Using the same measuring equipment or equipment to the same specification as used in the
commissioning of the valve, adjust the temperature of the mixed water in accordance with the
requirement of the application. Carry out the following sequence:
a) Record the temperature of the hot and cold water supplies.
b) Record the temperature of the mixed water at the largest draw-off flow rate.
c) Record the temperature of the mixed water at a smaller draw-off flow rate, which shall be
measured.
If the mixed water temperature has changed significantly from the previous test results
(e.g.> 1 K), record the change and before re-adjusting the mixed water temperature check:
a) That any in-line or integral strainers are clean.
b) Any in-line or integral check valves or other anti-back siphonage devices are in good
working order.
c) Any isolating valves are fully open.
With an acceptable mixed water temperature, complete the following procedure:
a) Record the temperature of the hot and cold water supplies.
b) Record the temperature of the mixed water at the largest draw-off flow rate.
c) Record the temperature of the mixed water at a smaller draw-off flow rate, which shall be
measured.
d) Isolate the cold water supply to the mixing valve and monitor the mixed water temperature.
e) Record the maximum temperature achieved as a result of (d) and the final
stabilised temperature.
f) Record the equipment, thermometer etc. used for the measurements.
If at step (e) the final mixed water temperature is greater than the values in the above table and/
or the maximum temperature exceeds the corresponding value from the previous results by
more than about 2 K, the need for service work is indicated.
Note: In-service tests should be carried out with a frequency, which identifies a need for service work before an
unsafe water temperature can result. In the absence of any other instruction or guidance, the following procedure
described in Annex F of D08 may be used.

FREQUENCY OF IN-SERVICE TESTS (Annex F of D08)
General
In the absence of any other instruction or guidance on the means of determining the
appropriate frequency of in-service testing, the following procedure may be used:
a) 6 to 8 weeks after commissioning carry out the tests detailed in “In-Service Tests”.
b) 12 to 15 weeks after commissioning carry out the tests detailed in “In-Service Tests”.
Depending on the results of the above tests, several possibilities exist:
a) If no significant changes (e.g. ≤1 K) in mixed water temperatures are recorded between
commissioning and 6 to 8 week testing, or between commissioning and 12-15 week testing
the next in-service test can be deferred to 24 to 28 weeks after commissioning.
b) If small changes (e.g. 1 to 2 K) in mixed water temperatures are recorded in only one
of these periods, necessitating adjustment of the mixed water temperature, then the next
in-service test can be deferred to 24 to 28 weeks after commissioning.
c) If small changes (e.g. 1 to 2 K) in mixed water temperatures are recorded in both of these
periods, necessitating adjustment of the mixed water temperature, then the next in-service
test should be carried out at 18 to 21 weeks after commissioning.
d) If significant changes (e.g. > 2 K) in mixed water temperatures are recorded in either of
these periods, necessitating service work, then the next in-service test should be carried out
at 18 to 21 weeks after commissioning.
The general principle to be observed after the first 2 or 3 in-service tests is that the intervals of
future tests should be set to those which previous tests have shown can be achieved with no
more than a small change in mixed water temperature.

IN SERVICE TESTING
It is a requirement that all TMV2 approved valves shall be verified against the original set
temperature results once a year. When commissioning/testing is due the following performance
checks shall be carried out:
1. Measure the mixed water temperature at the outlet.
2. Temperature readings should be taken at the normal flow rate after allowing for the system
to stabilise.
3. The sensing part of the thermometer probe must be fully submerged in the water that is to
be tested.
4. Carry out the cold water supply isolation test by isolating the cold water supply to the TMV,
wait for five seconds if water is still flowing check that the temperature is below 46°C.
5. Any TMV that has been adjusted or serviced must be re-commissioned and re-tested in
accordance with the manufactures’ instructions.
6. If there is no significant change to the outlet temperature (±2°C or less change from the
original settings) and the fail-safe shut of is functioning, then the valve is working correctly
and no further service work is required.
Note: If there is residual flow during the commissioning or the annual verification (cold water supply isolation test),
then this is acceptable providing the temperature of the water seeping from the valve is more than 2°C above the
designated maximum mixed water outlet temperature setting of the valve. The installation of thermostatic mixing
valves must comply with the requirements of the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999.
