TMV Failsafe Testing: scope, checks and next steps
Failsafe testing isolates the cold supply and records the shutdown, which is the test that actually proves the valve is protecting users.
What the reported symptom tells us
proving the valve shuts down if the cold supply fails. Record when this occurs, what changed beforehand and whether other equipment is affected. These observations narrow the investigation; they do not prove which part has failed.
