anti-scald
Temperature-limiting safety feature
Anti-scald describes devices or features designed to prevent burns from excessively hot water.
Anti-scald valves automatically limit water temperature or shut off flow when it exceeds a safe threshold: The building code requires anti-scald devices on all shower fixtures.
Common in bathrooms and kitchens, especially where children or elderly people might be at risk.
