How the Sol-Perpetua™ System Works
5. ANTI-SCALD VALVE
An anti-scald valve is required by some plumbing codes and is desirable because the sun can heat the water in the tank to a scalding temperature.
The anti-scald valve automatically mixes cold water from the mains with hot water from the top of the storage tank when it is ncessary to lower to water temperature at the point of use to a safe level. Because these valves are not always reliable we do not sell at this time a thermostatically controlled shower head is out suggestion.
