red dot award: product design 2009

The Aquastrom VT red bronze tap is an easy-to-use and easy-to-read regulating valve for potable water circuits. The design concept placed a holistic focus on function, form and economical material use. Correspondingly the valve is simply engineered, maintenance-free and composed of few robust parts. Designed for long-term use the potable water fitting is made to last 25 to 30 years: it operates without auxiliary energy and is made of recyclable, green materials. The compact design hides two functions: on the one hand, there is a thermal control that keeps the pre-set temperature at a constant level while the valve supports automatic thermal disinfection. On the other hand, the valve performs hydraulic adjustment to comply with the pre-set temperature requirement in each pipe of the circulation system. The integrated ball valve allows for quick isolation without the need for disassembling the insulation shells.
