Upgrade your wash trough with the following:

Recommended Upgrade: TMV3 Mixing Valve
Enhance safety and user comfort by purchasing and installing a 15mm TMV3 mixing valve to each tap:
- Safety: TMV3 mixing valves are designed to regulate water temperature, preventing scalding by ensuring that hot water is mixed with cold to maintain a safe temperature (usually below 43°C). This is especially important in environments like hospitals, nursing homes, and schools.
- Regulatory Compliance: Installing TMV3 valves ensures compliance with UK building regulations and the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999, which require temperature control in certain settings to prevent accidental burns and scalds.
- Improved Comfort: By maintaining a consistent, safe water temperature at each tap, users can enjoy a more comfortable experience without the risk of sudden temperature changes, making it ideal for both residential and commercial settings.
