2. Safety valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_valve

   Pressure safety valve on a water heater. Safety valves are required on water heaters, where they prevent disaster in certain configurations in the event that a thermostat should fail. Such a valve is sometimes referred to as a "T&P valve" (Temperature and Pressure valve). There are still occasional, spectacular failures of older water heaters ...

3. Thermostatic mixing valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostatic_mixing_valve

   There are three main categories for water temperature controlling devices: Heat Source, Group Control, and Point-of-Use. Heat Source. These are used with central heating systems that use water as a medium. Tempering valves for use on hot water heat distribution systems; High flow rates suitable for use in under floor (radiant) heating applications

4. Thermostatic radiator valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostatic_radiator_valve

   A thermostatic radiator valve on position 2 (15–17 °C) Installed thermostatic radiator valve with the adjustment wheel removed A thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is a self-regulating valve fitted to hot water heating system radiator, to control the temperature of a room by changing the flow of hot water to the radiator.

5. Water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

   A safety device called a temperature and pressure relief (T&P or TPR) valve, is normally fitted on the top of the water heater to dump water if the temperature or pressure becomes too high. Most plumbing codes require that a discharge pipe be connected to the valve to direct the flow of discharged hot water to a drain, typically a nearby floor ...

6. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

   Valves stop (or regulate) the flow of liquids or gases. They are categorized by application, such as isolation, throttling, and non-return. Isolation valves temporarily disconnect part of a piping system to allow maintenance or repair, for example. Isolation valves are typically left in either a fully open or closed position.

7. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

   A hybrid water heater is a water heating system that integrates technology traits from both the tank-type water heaters and the tankless water heaters. [5] It maintains water pressure and consistent supply of hot water across multiple hot water applications, and like its tankless cousins, it is efficient and can supply a continuous flow of hot ...
