As “Safety Valves” are now required by code throughout the United States, GROHE thermostatic temperature control valves insure a maximum of bathing safety for everyone, but are particularly important for small children, physically disabled people, and elderly people. Thermostat valves prevent the temperature shocks associated with accidental scalding and falls in the shower. Accurate to within 1° Fahrenheit, temperature is selected by dialing the temperature handle to a setting within the 70° to 110° comfort zone. The handle design also features a safety stop at 100° for added protection. Selecting your shower temperature is that simple. Plus, thermostat valves conserve energy as well by controlling the flow of hot water to be exactly what is required for your selected shower temperature.
It takes more than average performance to supply ample water volume to today’s expansive custom shower installations. A GROHE 3/4” thermostat valve is perfectly suited to meet the demands of large multiple-head custom shower systems. Given adequate water pressure, the 3/4” Grohtherm “high flow” valve, for example, can supply enough water to simultaneously power two shower heads, a personal hand shower, and up to four body sprays while automatically maintaining a specific water temperature at each outlet.
GROHE thermostats, however, are not just “muscle.” They are available with a wide selection of trim options in multiple finishes to match or compliment GROHE faucet and shower designs. GROHE thermostat valves are available in 1/2” versions as well, with or without integrated volume controls, and meet ASSE Standard 1016.
