Thermal balancing valves of TBVs are valves used to regulate the flow rates in hot water systems depending on the temperature, to ensure that a balanced water temperature is available when and where it is needed throughout the building. It is important to maintain a consistent temperature in a circuit, as balancing the water temperature prevents Legionella growth and helps avoid heat spikes that could damage other plumbing components or cause scalding.
