Hi Gang

What are the best TMV models for a soild fuel indirect heated gravity flow hot water system?

Thanks.

(edit: sorry it looks like this should have gone in the Taps and Valves forum)

Yeh not much of a CH question

You will need something that can work on your low pressure

What sort of head do you have from the cold water tank to the shower head?

Why does it need to be TMV2?

I am assuming you have a solid fuel burner which can create water temperatures of up to 99 degrees C whereas most TMVs are only rated to 85.

You need a solar blending valve as well as a TMV, which can go up to 99 degrees. I have a spare one you can have cheap if interested PM me.

You will need some form of pump after the tempering valve to get the shower to work properly.
