Tempering valves have been legislated to be installed since 2009. A Tempering valve is a safety device mixes hot water from the outlet pipe (normally around 60-70 degree Celsius) and cold water to produce a tempered hot water supply to 50 degree Celsius.
The requirement for a Tempering Valve is mandatory in all states for Solar Hot Water & Heat Pump hot water systems. Existing Gas storage & Electric Storage water heaters are also required to have a tempering valve installed when being replaced. Most manufacturers recommend Tempering Valves be replaced every 5 years to ensure correct operation.
The most common types of tempering valves can be identified by the colour of the plastic cap on the valve:
Solar Rated or High Performance = Yellow or Orange Cap
Standard = Blue, Black or Green Cap
