Safety Must provide scald protection for those who are most vulnerable. § Elderly § Children
Why so Special? Ordinary on the outside but extraordinary inside § Clark Kent veneer, Superman guts § Not just a faucet, but an ASSE 1070 listed tempering valve!
Innovative Tempering above the sink, not below § Thermostat is in the faucet, not in a separate valve § Tempering is done at the point of delivery § Everything is accessible from above counter
