New eGuide supports specifiers to deliver safe and stable water temperatures

RWC, the leading plumbing and heating manufacturer behind brands Reliance Valves, JG Speedfit and JG Underfloor, has launched a brand-new eGuide for specifiers. Bringing together expert insight, advice and tips, the free eGuide supports the successful specification of Thermostatic Mixing Valves (TMVs).

TMVs are critical parts of plumbing systems, helping to promote safety at each point of use across domestic and commercial systems. Having been a legal requirement in commercial and domestic new builds since 2010, TMVs are becoming familiar fixtures – but correct specification is essential to delivering safety in their given environment.

The new eGuide – The Specifier’s Guide to TMVs – delivers a practical approach to TMV specification, exploring the regulatory requirements that vary by application, through to user needs and maintenance considerations.

Richard Bateman, Product Marketing Manager at RWC, said: “Thermostatic Mixing Valves are critical components in every plumbing system – whether that’s on a domestic property or public buildings like schools and hospitals. When they’re specified correctly, they will stand up to the demands of their system to underpin safety over the long-term, helping to significantly reduce the chances of incidents like scalding.

“Domestic, commercial and healthcare buildings all have different requirements when it comes to specifying and maintaining TMVs effectively, and our latest eGuide is designed to help specifiers understand these individual complexities. We’ve brought together our knowledge and expertise to create a comprehensive guide to TMVs, making it straightforward to choose the right valves for the right applications.”

Covering the key considerations for domestic, commercial and healthcare applications, Reliance Valves’ eGuide supports specifiers to consider the key building design factors in TMV selection. From types of buildings and how they’re used, through to regulations, installation considerations and testing requirements, the eGuide is a key tool for specifiers planning safe and effective plumbing systems for today’s buildings.
