Q. "What is a pressure balance valve?"
A. A pressure balance shower mixing valve is one that automatically maintains balance between incoming hot and cold water supplied by immediately regulating fluctuations in pressure. As a result the outlet temperature remains constant, though the outlet pressure may drop. Also known as an anti-scald valve.
Q. "I see that the valve is operated by ADA compliant lever handles. Is the wall bar also ADA compliant?"
A. The wall bar is a carrier for the handshower and is not designed to support the weight of a person. If a grab bar is needed as a balancing, standing, or transfer aid for the disabled or elderly, we offer a wide variety of standard, luxuriously styled, and unique designer grab bars as well as grab bar mounted handshower systems.
Q. "What does 'ADA Compliant' mean?"
A. Complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990. The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 is a comprehensive civil rights act for people with disabilities. On July 26, 1990, the President signed the ADA into law as wide-ranging legislation intended to make American society more accessible to people with disabilities and to prohibit discrimination on the basis of disability. The ADA was built primarily due to the desire of individuals with disabilities to work toward their goal of full participation in American society, and effects the ADA may have on businesses include restructuring or altering the layout of a building, modifying equipment, and removing barriers.
