Why Do TMV Thermostatic Mixing Valves Need Servicing?
Regular servicing of TMV (Thermostatic Mixing Valves) is essential for safety, efficiency, and compliance. At Flowsafe, our Specialist Legionella Services ensure your TMVs operate correctly, reducing risks and maintaining optimal performance. Here are key reasons why TMV servicing is crucial:
Ensures Safe Water Temperatures – Verifies that water does not exceed 44°C, preventing scalding risks.
Confirms Fail-Safe Operation – Checks that the valve shuts off correctly in case of cold water supply failure.
Prevents Legionella Growth – Reduces the risk of bacterial buildup in TMV filters.
Protects Against Legionnaires’ Disease – Minimises exposure to harmful bacteria, safeguarding health.
TMV Thermostatic Mixing Valve Service & Maintenance
A Thermostatic Mixing Valve (TMV) service and maintenance by Flowsafe involves thorough cleaning, disinfection, and failsafe testing of the TMV valve. These valves play a critical role in protecting vulnerable individuals, such as the elderly, young children, and those with disabilities, from scalding injuries by blending hot and cold water to deliver a safe, controlled temperature between 38°C and 46°C, depending on the outlet type and installation environment.
To prevent Legionella bacteria from breeding, hot water must be stored at 60°C. However, this increases the risk of scalding, particularly for vulnerable individuals. According to HSG 274 Part 2 – The control of legionella bacteria in hot and cold water systems, the average person can suffer scalding at 50°C, while vulnerable individuals face a much higher risk at just 44°C.
What Happens During a TMV Thermostatic Mixing Valve Service by Flowsafe?
