What are anti-scalding devices?

Anti-Scalding Device

You may already have an anti-scalding device installed for your kitchen sink and the sinks in your home. But if you don't, adding one is an important part of your efforts to implement safety in the kitchen. Some of the popular anti-scalding products automatically shut off your water when it reaches a certain temperature. Others help to keep the temperature of your running water the same even if the water pressure alters. Both of these methods can help prevent your child from getting burned by hot water. Check to be sure your anti-scalding devise is working properly, as they can break over time. Also, never rely on these alone. Experts recommend you keep water heaters at or below 120 degrees if you have children in your home. This is just one more way to ensure kitchen safety for kids.
