Legionella and Scalding: A Clear Case For Thermostatic Mixing Valve
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, an estimated 10,000 to 50,000 people get Legionnaires disease each year. The CDC also estimates that 10 to 30 percent of these cases result in death. Although Legionnella bacteria can be found in many types of water systems, the bacteria reproduce to high numbers in warm, stagnant water (78-122°F/26-50°C). The organism is spread when water, in the form of ne mist, is inhaled. A drastic reduction in the number of bacteria results from storing hot water at 140°F (at 60°C). This effectively lowers the risk of infection. In conjunction with a higher storage temperature, a thermostatic mixing valve should be installed, to once again lower water temperature to 122°F (50°C) or below, thus providing greater protection from scalding. The Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) recommend the utilization of thermostatic mixing valves with a water heater installation. A simple solution to protect your family from Legionnaires Disease and scalding.
