Mixing Valve
No one really wants anything to do with 160F+ hot water. So to extend the volume of water available and to ensure only a safe temperature reaches the fixtures a Honeywell AM-1 1043 tempering / mixing valve was installed. This valve sits on the outlet of the hot water heater and mixes cold water into the stream to maintain a preset temperature. The output temperature is adjustable from 70F to 145F. It is set at around 118F right now.
