Why Regular TMV Testing Matters for Port Macquarie
Homes and Businesses
Thermostatic Mixing Valve (TMV) testing is more than a routine check—it’s a key step in keeping your property safe, healthy, and compliant:
- Safety: Regular TMV testing ensures your valve mixes hot and cold water correctly, preventing scalding and sudden temperature shifts that can lead to slips or falls.
- Health: Properly functioning valves help control harmful bacteria such as Legionella by maintaining water at the right temperature to stop bacterial growth.
- Compliance: Australian regulations require registered plumbers to test and maintain TMVs regularly to meet strict safety standards.

Common Questions About TMV Testing
Here are some of the most common questions people ask about Thermostatic Mixing Valve (TMV) testing, simple answers to help you understand why it’s important and how it keeps your water system safe and compliant.
What is a Thermostatic Mixing Valve (TMV)?
A TMV is a plumbing device that blends hot and cold water to a safe, steady temperature. It helps prevent scalding and sudden changes in water temperature, keeping taps and showers safe to use.
Why do TMVs need regular testing?
Regular TMV testing ensures the valve is working correctly, delivering water at the right temperature, and preventing bacteria growth like Legionella. It’s also a legal requirement in many commercial and healthcare settings.
How often should a TMV be tested?
Most TMVs should be tested and serviced at least once a year by a licensed plumber. Some facilities, such as hospitals or aged care centres, may need testing more frequently to meet safety regulations.
What happens during a TMV test?
A plumber checks the valve’s performance, measures outlet temperatures, cleans filters, removes debris, and ensures the water remains within safe temperature limits. A detailed TMV test report is also provided for compliance records.
Who can carry out TMV testing in Port Macquarie?
Only licensed plumbers with TMV accreditation can legally install, test, and certify thermostatic mixing valves. Choosing our Carrick Plumnbing qualified local plumber ensures your system meets Australian Standards and health regulations.
