Anti-Scald Mixing Valve (by Legend)

According to the manufacturer, this valve maintains a constant water temperature, preventing scalding water from reaching end-point devices in domestic water installations. There are three adjustable (100°, 110°, 120° F) settings on this unit, which automatically regulates domestic water temperatures at fixtures by combining both hot and cold water and by reducing hot water flow if the cold water is shut off.

ALL brands of man-made mechanical devices WILL (eventually) fail. The scald protection devices offered below are all mechanical devices, and therefore, it's best to design your hot water systems to not rely on these (or any) devices as your first defense against scalding.
