Never allow small children to use a hot water tap or draw their own bath. If anyone using hot water in the building fits this description, or if state/province laws or local codes require certain water temperature at hot water taps, take special precautions:
Install an anti-scald valve at water heater or at each hot water faucet, bath, and shower outlet.
