What to look for if:
• Recirculation temperature rises when there is no demand on
the system:
1. Refer to Aquastat or Continuous Recirculation Instructions
• Outlet temperature is too hot with low flow (#1):
1. The thermal actuator of the valve is not working properly.
Test and replace accordingly to the appropriate installation
instructions, IS-P-SH1430 enclosed.
• Outlet temperature is too hot with a high flow (#2 or #3):
1. The thermal actuator of the valve is not working properly.
Test and replace accordingly, IS-P-MM430.
• Outlet temperature too low with low or high flow:
1. The hot water temperature is too low. You must have a sup-
ply temperature of at least 5°F (3°C) higher than the set tem-
perature. Readjust the hot water supply.
2. The checkstops on the hot side of the valve are not fully
open, or may be stuck due to liming. Open and clean check-
stops.
3. The temperature has not been set properly on the low and/or
high valve. Refer to set up procedure and reset the valves.
• Outlet flow drops off:
1. The checkstops are not fully open or stuck. Open and clean
checkstops.
2. The system pressure varies by more than 50% of the inlet
supply pressure.
• Outlet temperature cycles between hot and cold:
1. The system pressure varies by more than 50% of the inlet
supply pressure.
2. The valve system may be oversized for application. Check
system sizing to verify.
3. Recirculation may not be balanced properly. Refer to
Aquastat or Continuous Recirculation instructions.
Troubleshooting
n
Thermostatic water mixing valves are control devices which
must be cleaned and maintained on a regular basis.
1. Before servicing checkstops or piping, turn off the water
upstream. At least every twelve (12) months, open up the
checkstops and check for the free movement of the poppet.
2. Before servicing the valve, turn off the water supply upstream
or close the checkstops. To close the checkstops, turn the
adjusting screw clockwise.
3. When opening checkstops after servicing, do not over adjust;
turn adjusting screw fully counterclockwise and then 1/2 turn
clockwise.
4. Every three (3) months, check the maximum temperature
adjustments.
5. Every twelve (12) months, remove the valve bonnets and
check the internal components for freedom of movement.
CAUTION:
Any changes in supply condition could effect the out-
let water temperature. Check and adjust the valves
accordingly to prevent injury to the users.
