Building temperature control valve

greenspun.com : LUSENET : B&W Photo - Film & Processing : One Thread

I am setting up a new darkroom and want to build a temperature control valve to perform similar to a Delta valve I see advertized in the range of $300. I am a plumber and have access to items at whole sell prices if I only knew what they use. The last arrangement I built moved arround when I used water for other things in my darkroom. Thanks

Well, I have a Delta unit and it also changes temperature when I use water for other purposes. Is there anychance that you can get a Delta unit wholesale? That may be your best move. Another choice would be to use one of the new shower valves that allow you to set a temperture.
