Thermostatic bath taps, or some other version of thermostatic water control for the filling of domestic baths may well become law during 2010. Every year many people (mainly young children) are severely scalded by hot bath water. In the UK we have a particularly bad habit of filling the bath with hot water then topping up the bath with cold water until the bath reaches a comfortable temperature. This habit can lead to injury if a child gets into the bath before the cold water is added. In order to safeguard your family against accidental scalding you may want to fit a thermostatic bath tap, or an under bath thermostatic valve (TMV).

These products are designed and manufactured to carefully control the temperature of the water as you fill your bath. The water control cartridges allow hot and cold water to be blended to a safe yet comfortable temperature and will protect against scalding even if the cold water supply fails. Fit thermostatic bath taps, or showers to ensure safe, comfortable bathing and showering for all the family.
