We are planning to have Rinnai instantaneous hot water in our new house. They also sell controllers which allow you to set the temperature of the water - esp the bathroom - lower for child safety. However, as I understand it, if we are bathing the kids set the controller at 39*C and someone else is in the kitchen set at 55*C at the same time, the whole house would be at the lower temperature. Can we instead, (not paying for a controller, or 2 or 3 even) use a tempering valve to set the bathroom hot water permanently at 45*C? Thanks for your help The water controllers are in series, ie you adjust the them on one pad and they all change. You can set a temp valve to the bathrooms, or more appropriately all sanitary areas (baths laundrys en suite etc.) However this generally means that you need an independant hot line run to the kitchen. If the plumbing has allready been run than this may be difficult as it is not something that can be put in the roof space. the sun master is the solar heating to "warm" the water in the tank the S26 is your hot water system which will heat the water (25 degrees?) so with both turned on you… 2 12481 I want to build a decking to the drawn shape outlined in black.
