Summary of the Need for TMV3 Approved Valves:
TMV3 Thermostatic Mixing Valves
Predominantly used in the healthcare industry, however, every employer has a duty under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 to ensure that the health and safety of patients, residents, visitors and staff using a building are not at risk, and this applies to all types of buildings, not just healthcare premises.
Scalding – Cause for Concern
Scalding through accidents involving hot water can lead to horrendous injuries. The most vulnerable are often at risk – the young, elderly and infirm. Every year 437 children* (average) under five are seriously scalded in the bath. Of 21 recorded fatal cases, 72% were accounted for by the 65+ age group.
What is the solution?
Products called TMV's – Thermostatic Mixing Valves are available from TMV3valves.co.uk, which would significantly reduce the risk of scalds occurring in the home or indeed anywhere that hot water is delivered through mixing valves.
