Hi:
I am wondering if folks think it is worth it to install thermostatic valves either at the hot water heater or at the fixture (inside the wall) for tubs used by small kids. I have turned my water heater down so the max temperature at the fixture is about 120F. Interested in whether folks think this is sensible thing to do or just overkill.
The house was built in the late 1980s and has no tempering or thermostatic controls other than the big red dial on the hot water heater.
thanks!
