I've used these valves for both domestic hot water tempering and for tempering boiler water going to radiant floor heat that is combined with fin tube zones. They perform as advertised and are easy to install and set up. I recommend putting a temperature gauge downstream from the mixed output. I haven't had much luck setting the mix water temperature with the liquid crystal temperature gauge that comes with the valve.

We added the same valve for our water heater after installing an outdoor boiler and WH sidearm about 2015, the actuating pin from the wax capsule was stuck resulting in cool hot water and couldn't be purchased alone. Trying a rebuild kit didn't fix it, but installing the relevant part from this new unit did, and was easier than redoing all the associated plumbing for a new valve.

With the new lead law in effect most manufacturers are clearly marking their Products on the castings and explaining the markings on their websites. This makes complying to this new law not too difficult, you just have to spend a little extra time to make sure the products meet the new code. Honeywell however has made this exceedingly difficult with this product as they just marked the box lead Free and not the body of the valve. The body of the old valve and the body of the new valve appear identical. I called Honeywell to inquire about the markings and how I could document that the valve that I had purchased met the new lead law. The person on the phone assured me that the valve met the new code, So I said to him, Should I just tell the local inspectors that the guy on the phone said it was ok. Needless to say he was not amused and neither was I as he was evading the obvious. After this exchange the man's advice was, If I am not satisfied by the product then maybe I should try another manufacturer. This item was an integral part of a larger installation that could not be performed until this issue was worked out, it caused unneeded costly delays. To avoid this and other issues in the future I think I will take the mans advice.
