    How can I ensure my family never gets scalded in the bathroom?

    You can retro-fit TMVs - thermostatic mixing valves  - to your plumbing pipework or install brand new thermostatic showers and taps without the need for a complete bathroom refurbishment. A simple and effective TMV costs less than £30.

    ​

    What is the safest type of shower for my family to use? 

    A thermostatic shower is best because the water temperature is automatically controlled to prevent hot water scalding.

    ​

    How can I convert my existing taps to thermostatic?

    You can install a TMV - thermostatic mixing valve - in the hot and cold pipework near the washbasin or bath.
