  • Page 3 Operation A tempering valve mixes hot and cold water in such a way as to maintain the set temperature of the mixed water at the outlet. A thermostatic element is fully immersed into the mixed water. It then contracts or expands causing movement of the piston, closing either the hot or cold inlets, thus regulating the flow of water entering the valve.
