Each year thousands of children and adults are severely injured by scalding tap water. In fact, tap water scalds are the second most common cause of severe burn injuries among people of all ages. But now a new product line from American Valve called HotStop Scald Prevention Faucets, Tub Spouts & Showerheads aims to decrease those numbers worldwide.

How does HotStop work? When hot water reaches an unsafe temperature HotStop quickly reduces the water flow to a trickle to avoid scalding. Once the water in the line cools the flow re-starts automatically. The entire process usually takes less than 30 seconds.

All you have to do to protect your family from the dangers of shower and faucet scalding accidents is to replace your current shower head and bathtub faucet HotStop products. HotStop installs in just a few minutes, and you don’t need any special tools or expertise in plumbing to swap your current tub and shower hardware for HotStop pieces.
HotStop showerheads and tub spouts are UL listed and ASSE 1062 approved. Available products include an anti-scald tub spout, hand shower, shower head, and shower head and tub spout with diverter.
