Horne Thermostatic Mixing Valves & Thermostatic Showers: Social Housing

For a number of years, Horne products have been specified for inclusion in various social housing wards. This has mainly been in response to a scalding incident or a risk assessment where it has been recommended that the housing group install thermostatic mixing valves.

More recently, a number of action groups such as the children's charities have been lobbying the government for changes to the building regulations and for the installation of thermostatic mixing valves to the bath to become mandatory in all new build and refurb buildings.

The Building Regulations are set to change in the spring of 2006 and for this emerging market, we have specifically developed a TMV that will cope with the conditions typical of social housing.
