Winter has come. Taking a bath in the cold winter is afraid of the water temperature fluctuating hot and cold. It is a very enjoyable thing to take a comfortable hot bath, so if you want to have a constant temperature when taking a bath in the cold winter, you must Install a Thermostatic Shower head. What is a thermostatic shower head? What are its characteristics? What is the principle of constant temperature?

First of all, we know that the shower head adjusts the hot and cold water through a hot and cold mixing valve. We usually call this mixing valve a shower faucet. The old-fashioned shower faucet has two handles to control the size of cold water and hot water respectively. To adjust the water temperature, now the shower faucet only needs one handle to adjust the water temperature, because now only one spool is needed to adjust the mixing ratio of cold water and hot water.

The principle of the thermostatic faucet is on the spool. The spool of the thermostatic faucet has a temperature sensing element, which is generally made of paraffin or nickel-titanium alloy. The temperature sensing element will change its shape according to the change of temperature. For example, the temperature sensing element made of paraffin will expand or shrink with the temperature. When the water temperature changes, the volume of paraffin will change, and then through a certain Some control shafts are used to adjust the spool, and the spool adjusts the mixing ratio of cold water and hot water, so that the water temperature can be adjusted and kept at a certain temperature to achieve the effect of constant temperature water outlet.

The thermostatic mixing valve has the function of automatically constant water temperature. After the outlet water temperature is set according to the needs of the lining, the outlet water temperature can be quickly reached and automatically constant, and will not be affected by the change of cold and hot water inlet pressure, temperature or outlet water flow. Solved the problem of hot and cold water temperature in the bathing process. When the inlet pressure, temperature or outlet flow of hot and cold water changes, the outlet water temperature will vary within ±2°C. The thermostatic mixing valve has the function of anti-cold shock. During the bathing process, when the cold water is suddenly interrupted, the thermostatic mixing valve can automatically shut off the hot water within a few seconds to play a protective role; when the hot water is suddenly interrupted, the constant temperature The water mixing valve can automatically shut off the cold water within a few seconds to protect against cold shock.

Since the structure of the constant temperature shower is sealed by embedded ceramics, it can be used even if the water temperature exceeds 90 degrees, and it is reliable. There is no cold water flow limiting device, so it will not be affected by the water supply pressure difference. As long as the water temperature is set properly, there is no need to repeatedly adjust the water temperature in the future, and the constant temperature shower will be more durable. When using a constant temperature shower, do not adjust the water temperature frequently after the water temperature is set, so as to save the waste of water in the process of adjusting the water temperature, so the use of a constant temperature shower is very energy-saving and water-saving.

If you choose a high-quality constant temperature shower head, the interior is designed with lead-free materials, so it is more environmentally friendly when using a constant temperature shower head. Of course, you get what you pay for, and while the thermostatic shower is easy to use, the price will be higher than that of ordinary showers.
