TreMax Thermostaic Mixing Valve with 1/2 NPT Thread, Shower Mixing Valve with NPT Connector no need Adaptors, Temperature Control Valve, Fahrenheit Scale Mark, Solid Brass- Silver

I live in the NC mountains. The cold water out of the tap for the washer is only 53 degrees. No temp setting on my Maytag could get to the correct temp. For instance warm should be around 90, and it would come out to hardly 66 degrees. I installed this with some 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch brass adapters for the washer hoses and set the mix temp at around 75 degrees. Everything now washes as intended ….

We use these on our grooming tubs and the water temperature really always is dead on. I was worried about the water flow and the temperature stability but we get as much water volume as we ever need and the temperature seems very steady even with the slightly unstable hot water feed temperature.

So far so good seem to function as intended. Seems to keep the right temperature that is displayed on the dial. Used in a camper build and it proved to be small and lightweight. I can crank the hwh up a little more and have this mix with cold and effectively get more hot water.

So far it’s great. Installed about a week ago in our camper and have had nice hot water.

Works good. Compact. Inexpensive. Simple. But, had difficulty with leaks at pipe connections. I used teflon pipe dope which should have done the trick. However all 3 pipe fittings had minute leaks. I had to take it apart & use a heavier blue sealant which worked. I would buy again.

Half way to the 113°F mark was about 110°F Water...what the child day care inspector said was the max allowed. Our water outputs were 3/8 compression, pretty standard. To the bottom output of limiter we added a 1/2 NPT female to 3/8 compression male. The G 1/2 female adapter is not a good fit...those are for the rest of the world - different thread count and pitch. Hot water input from faucet goes here. Compression fittings DO NOT NEED teflon tape. The rubber seals work well. We then used a premade hose that was 3/8 compression from the hot shut off - to a 1/2 NPT female to the left side of limiter. The 1/2 fitting on these also has a rubber seal. No teflon tape needed here either. Ours had to be 20 inches. On the cold shutoff we used a 3/8 compression female 'T" to 2 male 3/8 compressions. Cold hose from faucet goes on one of these. Other 3/8 from "T" hooks to premade 3/8 compression hose. 1/2 NPT fitting on hose goes to right side of limiter. Done! We used a 16 inch hose on this side. Some limiter kits include clips that mount on the wall to hang limiter by your hoses. I needed mine closer, so used 3 to 4 inch hose clamps to attach to a 1-1/2 drain fitting. I made a custom wood wedge behind limiter, so temperature could be more easily adjusted. Amazon has the 3/8 "T's" and 1/2 NPT to 3/8 compression adapters, if you can not find them at your Home Depot or Lowe's. Our Menards has a good selection - and I "Save Big Money" there. Good Luck! Turning the knob on top all the way to F will allow your original hot water temperature. I recommend MAXIMUM temperature of 129°F to prevent scalding yourself.

We will have to remove as we lost 90% of the water pressure

Bueno

Works great used it on my bidet temp control is great had to make mount for it but otherwise great product

I used this to reduce water temperature in my shower and toilet sink, both for comfort (easier to find the right temperature) and safety. We ended up using less hot water since we have this, so a bit of saving as well. It's simple to install if you can handle a bit of plumbing - run hot & cold water pex in and get warm water out, with a fitting required on each end. If you run a 1/2'' line out of it you'll have to wait less long to get hot water. Does not leak if properly tightened - one of the only valves of this type I could find with NPT threads. The temperature control allows for fine adjustments, even if the numbers on the dial are not accurate. Good buy overall.

This item seems to work as intended. I use it for an outdoor tap so I can have warm water in the winter. After one year use, there are still no leaks and it’s working properly

Thread works for NTP with no leak. You can only screw a few rounds in but if you are careful there shouldn’t be any leaking.

Installed the unit today, does not work. I either get 100% hot water or 100% cold. The "adjuster" knob has a switch point where it either goes full hot or full cold. Wasted my money
