2. Low-flow fixtures - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-flow_fixtures

   Kitchen and bathroom faucets were limited to a flow rate of 2.2 gpm (gallons per minute) at 60 psi, and residential shower heads were limited to a flowrate of 2.5 gpm at 80 psi. [ 3 ] In response to an increasing number of water shortages and increased water utility rates there has been recent legislation by many states leading the way in water ...

3. Fixture unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixture_unit

   The relationship between gallons per minute (gpm) and fixture unit is not constant, but varies with the number of fixture units. For example, 1000 FU is equivalent to 220 US gallons per minute (0.014 m 3 /s) while 2000 FU represents only 330 US gallons per minute (0.021 m 3 /s), about 1.5 times the flow rate.

4. Thermostatic mixing valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostatic_mixing_valve

   A thermostatic mixing valve (TMV) is a valve that blends hot water with cold water to ensure constant, safe shower and bath outlet temperatures to prevent scalding.

5. Flow coefficient - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_coefficient

   A simplified version of the definition is: The k v factor of a valve indicates "The water flow in m 3 /h, at a pressure drop across the valve of 1 kgf/cm 2 when the valve is completely open. The complete definition also says that the flow medium must have a density of 1000 kg/m 3 and a kinematic viscosity of 10 −6 m 2 /s , e.g. water.

7. Pressure-balanced valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-balanced_valve

   The pressure-balanced shower valve compensates for changes in water pressure. It has a diaphragm or piston inside that reacts to relative changes in either hot or cold water pressure to maintain balanced pressure. As water pressure drops on one supply line, the valve reduces the pressure in the other supply line to match.
