Cool Trough® Water Tempering Systems

Section 701.7 of the International Plumbing Code mandates that water entering a drainage system cannot exceed 140˚F, which could cause problems with PVC pipes and other safety and environmental issues. The Cool Trough® is designed to activate the temperature sensor at 130˚F and turn off the mixing valve at 120˚F, thus using water only when required.
Many facilities which utilize equipment such as boilers, humidifiers, sterilizers, and commercial equipment typically produce drain water over 140˚F. The water must be cooled, or “tempered,” before entering drain lines. The operation of the Cool Trough® requires no additional steps for the operator. It only generates economic rewards by extending the life of the drainage system.
Also, because the valve is mechanically actuated, there is no need for electrical connection, which means there is no chance of an electrical component failure.
Hook a cold water line to the shutoff valve provided, and protection for your drain lines is ensured.
