Scalding: Understanding Design Solutions for Risk Reduction. What Architects Need to Know about Reducing Scalding Risk with Point of Use Solutions

Approximately 1 hour

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.

Presented by Greg Hunt on behalf of The Chicago Faucet Company.
