Providing workplace facilities with the appropriate type, number and location of emergency eyewashes and showers is important. But having a reliable and efficient delivery system that provides tepid water on demand to these fixtures stands out as another key part of the safety equation.

Quickly attaining the correct water temperature, pressure and flow rate are all critical factors in helping to make sure affected users will drench long enough — at least 15 minutes — to remove all hazardous chemicals from affected areas. Therefore, selecting the right tankless water heater or thermostatic mixing valve (TMV) — two of the most common solutions for supplying tepid water — will help ensure optimal performance and proper usage of emergency equipment.
