Hello

We have 3 lever taps that need to be changed to Non Concussive for the customer.

The hot feet is from a small water heater and cold off the mains I think.

The Non Concussive Tao obviously only has one feed into it.

So my question is do I need to no fit a tmv to mix both hot and cold or could I just turn the heat down on the water heater and connect just the hot.

Thank
 
If you turned the hot water heater down to a safe temperature for the tap, you'd have to have the stored hot water at 38 / 40 c,

Does that stored hot water temperture ring any bells?
 
Come across a problem.
Any suggestions would be appreciated o_O. The original tap has a larger base. We now have some gaps.

Straight valve to turn shower on & off (you'd think this would exist)
Hi - recognise this a bit of an odd one. We have an old failed mixer valve which we need to replace. This valve actually predates a temperature controlled boiler, so the mixing functionality is irrelevant, since the cold water pipe is isolated/off. I'd ideally like to replace the shower valve...

Non return valve failure?
Hi there, All was good until one day the hot water suddenly started running quite a lot cooler. Putting my hand on the output at the boiler it's still hot there so I'm guessing there's a problem with cold water feeding into the hot water somewhere along the line. I have mixer taps on two...
