Honeywell Mixing Valves

Meet The Code For Safety

New plumbing code changes adopted or soon to

be adopted in most communities across the country

require the control of hot water through the use of

thermostatic mixing valves. All public sinks and non-

shower bathtubs must use a thermostatic mixing

valve that conforms to the new ASSE 1070 standard

with a maximum temperature of 120° F at the tap.

A Honeywell mixing valve installed at your water

heater ensures that you meet the code.
