Here’s a breakdown of its function and importance:

Temperature Control: The main job of a TMV is to regulate the water temperature by mixing the hot and cold water at a specific ratio. This ensures that the water temperature doesn’t exceed a preset limit, preventing scalding or thermal shock. It’s typically adjustable, allowing the user to set a preferred water temperature. Safety: In places like hospitals, nursing homes, and homes with children, TMVs help prevent burns by ensuring water temperature stays within safe limits. They are designed to shut off or divert water if the supply temperature becomes too high or too low. Efficiency: TMVs help reduce energy consumption by delivering water at a consistent temperature. This minimizes the need for manual adjustments or waiting for the water to reach the desired temperature.
