INTENANCE The following maintenance procedure must be carried out for commercial and health care premises but is not necessarily required for domestic installations Maintenance of the unit is required to give continued performance after installation and that it continues to provide scald prevention Note A thermostatic mixing valve in need of maintenance can be undetectable in normal use and only becomes apparent when a disruption occurs in the hot or cold water supply temperatures or pressures The frequency of routine maintenance of the internal of the valve will depend mainly on the water supply condition Experience of local conditions will dictate the intervals for inspection and in service testing guidance has been given below which can be adjusted for local requirements a Initially check the filters for debris once every three months and clean if necessary b Perform a thermal shut off test every three months and check the maximum temperature setting See the Commissioning section for the details of this test and readjustment of the maximum temperature setting if required C If the maximum water temperature varies by more than 2 C from the commissioned setting then carry out the following checks e Check the isolating valves are fully open e Check the internal surface for scaling If the body requires descaling then it should be removed from the pipework to carry this work out all rubber parts must be rem
