Triton Thermostatic Mixing Valve 22mm

This thermostatic mixing valve 22mm is made for low pressure systems, so it suits gravity fed hot water. The temperature adjustment is tamperproof, which stops users turning it up.

Why choose this thermostatic mixing valve 22mm

Plenty of older houses in Glasgow still run off a cold tank in the loft and a vented cylinder. Not every mixing valve likes that low pressure. This one is made for it, so you can add scald protection without changing the whole system. The tamperproof setting is useful in rented flats, care homes and schools, where someone might try to raise the temperature.

• Size: 22mm
• Works on low pressure supplies
• Tamperproof temperature adjustment
• Thermostatic control of the blended outlet

On gravity systems, keep the hot and cold supplies balanced as closely as you can, because a big difference upsets any mixer. Flush the pipes before fitting the valve. Fit isolators so the valve can be checked and serviced. Set the temperature with a thermometer at the outlet, then lock the setting.

Common Questions

Will this TMV work with a cold tank in the loft?

Yes, it is made for low pressure supplies like a vented cylinder fed from a loft tank. Many mixing valves need mains pressure, so this one fills that gap.

What does tamperproof adjustment mean?

The temperature setting cannot be turned with fingers, so users cannot raise it. That suits rented flats, schools and care settings.

Do hot and cold supplies need to be balanced?

On gravity systems, try to keep the two supply pressures close. A big difference between them makes any mixer struggle to hold its setting.
