Content Description

Scalding: Understanding Design Solutions for Risk Reduction. What Architects Need to Know about Reducing Scalding Risk with Point of Use Solutions, 2024
CEU: 0.1 | CEU Code: CF-EN-167604-0724

The potential for scalding from point of use hot water affects all of us. While the very young and the very old are more susceptible, no one is immune from scalding danger. An understanding of the potential for scalding, as well as the physiology of burns from hot water, can guide our design choices and significantly reduce the danger to people using facilities that commonly supply hot water, such as lavatories, baths, and showers. This course discusses the potential for scalding, the physiology of burns due to hot water, and who is most susceptible. It also discusses the relevant codes and the fixtures available to designers that can help reduce scalding and burn potential.

Learning Objectives

  • Recall effects of scalding and scalding risks to vulnerable populations.
  • Describe the relationship between water temperature and infection control.
  • Describe how different types of mixing valves manage water temperature.
  • Use the appropriate codes and ASSE standards that limit scalding in lavatories, showers, and baths for private and public facilities.
  • Specify mixing valves to control scalding risk at point of use.

Faculty BIO

Greg Hunt is the Commercial Product Manager for the Chicago Faucet Company. With 20 years of global product-management experience, he provides strategic product direction and tactical execution to the sales, engineering, and manufacturing teams.
