FAULT / SYMPTOM

1. The desired mixed water temperature cannot be
obtained or valve is difficult to set.
2. Mix temperature unstable or changing over time.
3. Either full hot or full cold water flowing from outlet
fixture.
4. No flow from the valve outlet.
5. Flow rate reduced or fluctuating.
6. Mixed water temperature does not change when
temperature adjuster is altered.
7. Hot water flows into the cold water system or vice
versa.
8. Valve is noisy.


limits for the valve.
Refit the valve with Hot/Cold supplies fitted to the
-
correct connections.
Clean strainers.
-
Install PRVs to bring supplies within specification
-
Clean strainers.
-
Install pressure regulating valves on both hot and
-
cold supplies.
Adjust mix temperature as required.
-
Refit the valve with Hot/Cold supplies fitted to the
-
correct connections.
Check non return valve is not fouled. Clean if
-
necessary.
Restore inlet supplies and check mix temperature.
-
Clean strainers.
-
Clean Strainers.
-
Install pressure regulating valves.
-
Contact customer service.
-
Clean non returns ensuring debris is removed.
-
Reduce water velocity (best achieved by fitting a
-
pressure regulating valve).
Check valve specifications and ensure the
-
appropriate valve is used for required flow.
