49、eral suggestions received from persons having had a disturbing experience with shower valves which were potentially hazardous allowing sudden surges of high temperature water to flow from the shower head prompted the initiation of the ASSE 1016 standard in 1973. Documents and field experiences relating to the behavioural characteristics of different classes of devices were studied and evaluated, and from this, the standard text was developed. Since that time, extensive research
