TMV2 & TMV3 Certification Explained
TMV2 Certification: Approved for domestic and commercial applications including homes, hotels, offices, and public buildings. TMV2 valves prevent scalding by maintaining safe water temperatures even if hot or cold supply fails.
TMV3 Certification: The highest level of thermostatic mixing valve certification, approved for use in healthcare and clinical environments including hospitals, care homes, nursing homes, and medical facilities. TMV3 valves meet more stringent performance and safety requirements than TMV2.
This Easifit valve holds BOTH certifications, making it suitable for the widest range of applications from domestic bathrooms to clinical healthcare settings.
How Thermostatic Mixing Valves Work
The TMV automatically blends hot and cold water to deliver a safe, pre-set temperature at the outlet. Key safety features include:
Temperature Stability: Maintains consistent outlet temperature even when inlet pressures or temperatures fluctuate
Fail-Safe Operation: If cold water supply fails, the valve automatically shuts off to prevent scalding
Adjustable Output: Temperature can be set to suit specific requirements (typically 38-43°C)
Instant Response: Reacts immediately to changes in supply conditions
Why TMVs Are Essential
Thermostatic mixing valves are legally required in many installations:
Healthcare Facilities: Mandatory in hospitals, care homes, and nursing facilities (TMV3 required)
Schools & Nurseries: Required to protect children from scalding
Care Homes: Essential for vulnerable adults and elderly residents
Public Buildings: Recommended for hotels, gyms, and public washrooms
Domestic Properties: Best practice for homes with young children or elderly residents
Water heated to 60°C (required to kill Legionella bacteria in storage) can cause severe scalding in seconds. TMVs allow safe storage temperatures while delivering safe outlet temperatures.
Ultra-Compact Design Benefits
The Easifit's ultra-compact and lightweight design offers significant advantages:
Fits in tight spaces where standard TMVs won't (under basins, in vanity units, behind panels)
Easier to install in retrofit applications with limited access
Reduces installation time and complexity
Ideal for concealed installations
Lightweight for easier handling during installation
Applications & Use Cases
Healthcare Facilities: Hospitals, clinics, medical centers (TMV3 approved)
Care Homes: Nursing homes, assisted living facilities, elderly care
Schools & Nurseries: Educational facilities, childcare centers
Public Buildings: Hotels, gyms, leisure centers, offices
Domestic Bathrooms: Homes with young children or elderly residents
Showers & Baths: Point-of-use temperature control
Basin Supplies: Handwashing facilities in care and clinical settings
Installation Requirements
The valve should be installed as close as possible to the point of use (tap, shower, etc.) to minimize the length of pipework at safe temperature. Install with hot water inlet on the left, cold water on the right (when facing the valve). Ensure adequate access for future servicing and temperature adjustment. Professional installation recommended, particularly for TMV3 applications which require commissioning and annual testing.
WRAS Approval
WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme) approval confirms this valve meets UK water supply regulations. WRAS-approved products have been independently tested and certified as safe for use in potable water systems, ensuring they won't contaminate drinking water or cause system issues.
Maintenance & Testing
TMV2 Applications: Annual testing recommended to verify correct operation and temperature output.
TMV3 Applications: Annual testing is MANDATORY in healthcare and clinical environments. Testing must be performed by a competent person and records maintained. The valve should be checked for correct temperature output, fail-safe operation, and general condition.
Regular maintenance ensures continued safe operation and compliance with regulations.
Temperature Setting
The outlet temperature is adjustable (typically 38-43°C) to suit specific requirements:
38°C: Standard safe temperature for most applications
41°C: Comfortable shower temperature
43°C: Maximum recommended for general use
Temperature should be set during commissioning and verified during annual testing.
Building Regulations Compliance
TMVs help ensure compliance with:
Building Regulations Part G (Sanitation, hot water safety)
NHS Estates Health Technical Memorandum HTM 04-01 (healthcare hot water)
Care Quality Commission (CQC) requirements for care homes
Health and Safety Executive (HSE) guidance on scalding prevention
