Series 1170/L1170
Hot Water Temperature Control Valves
The new Watts 1170/L1170 hot water temperature control valves maintain and limit mixed hot water to
a desired, selectable temperature chosen by the installer. The Watts Series 1170/L1170 is perfect for
maintaining optimum water temperatures in Reverse Osmosis systems. The superior flow characteristics
of this valve results in accurate temperature control of ±3°F combined with low pressure drop. As an
added benefit the 1170 series incorporates check valves in both the hot and cold water inlets to protect
against cross flow.
