Safety & Precaution
Is your tap burning up? Is the water boiling, posing a risk to your family or visitors to your home?
The average delivery temperature of domestic heated units is 70 degrees Celsius. A much safer temperature is 50 degrees. This is because when your tap is at a lower temperature, it takes longer to cause injury.
- At 60°C, it takes one second for your tap to cause third-degree burns.
- At 55°C, it takes 10 seconds for your tap to cause third-degree burns.
- At 50°C, it takes five minutes for your tap to cause third-degree burns.
If you want to improve the safety of your heated unit, then give us a call at Mr. Pipes. We can investigate and advise a solution to protect you and your family from the risk of scalding and burns.
