It’s a great time to think about ways to make your home more efficient, safe, and comfortable. One of our favorite upgrades? A simple thermostatic mixing valve for your water heater.
This small but mighty device (see photos above and below) allows you to set your water heater to a higher temperature while mixing in cold water—so what comes out of the tap is safe, comfortable, and more abundant.

Benefits of a mixing valve:
🔥 Higher tank temperatures = safer water
Lower temps can allow bacteria (like dangerous Legionella) to grow. A mixing valve helps prevent this without the risk of scalding.
🚿 Up to 50% more hot water
Mixers help your current tank perform better—hello longer showers and less waiting!
🧳 Save space without upsizing
Boost hot water supply without installing a bigger tank—perfect for homes where space is at a premium.
Want to know if your existing system can be upgraded with a mixing valve? Or thinking about a full hot water system replacement?
