Thermostatic Shower Faucet Vs. Pressure Balanced Showers: What's The Difference?

thermostatic shower faucet vs. Pressure Balanced Showers: What's the Difference?

Pressure Balance Shower

The pressure balanced shower valve is the first major difference from the dual handle shower valve. These original valves can produce water at temperatures in excess of 140F - well above temperatures known to cause harm. Even if the user adjusts the temperature to their comfort level, cold water being drawn from another fixture limits the amount of water produced by the shower valve - causing a sudden and constant stream of scalding water to overwhelm the user.

Pressure balancing valves eliminate this problem in two simple ways. First, they can be installed so that they cannot be adjusted to produce scalding water. Second, and most important, they contain a mechanism called a pressure balance spool. When another clamp absorbs water, the spool moves - controlling the flow of hot or cold water. Pressure balancing techniques have been around for many years, but water temperature control did not appear until 2001 in the Canadian National Plumbing Code.

Safer and more comfortable than its predecessor, the pressure equalization valve is a reliable and cost-effective option and can be equipped with a variety of styles and finishes

thermostatic shower

Thermostatic showers give consumers peace of mind when it comes to shower temperature. This shower head works by continuously fine-tuning changes in water pressure to ensure you get a consistent and even shower temperature. Plus, thermostatic showers produce more flow than traditional pressure-balanced showers—a necessity for those considering multiple body spray options.

When you turn on the faucet, the setting will immediately give you the temperature you want.
