The job
The valve keeps the delivered water at a safe, steady temperature even as the supply changes.
The use
It is common at the water heater or at fixtures where scald protection matters.
The symptom
Sudden temperature swings or lukewarm water can mean the valve needs service.

Keep the temperature steady. Call 888-217-3585 and Los Angeles Plumbing Experts will match you with a Los Angeles pro.
