| 2014-12731 | Manufactured Housing Constructions and Safety Standards: Correction of Reference Standard for Anti-Scald Valves | Rule | This final rule amends the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards by incorporating the correct reference standard for anti-scald devices designed for bathtubs and whirlpool tubs without showers, ASSE 1070-2004, Performance Requirements for Water Temperature Limiting Devices. Anti-scald valves mitigate the danger of serious burns and other hazards caused by bursts of hot water resulting from sudden changes in water pressure. In a final rule published on December 9, 2013, HUD incorporated ASSE 1016- 2005, an anti-scalding device designed for showers and tub-shower combinations. HUD failed to incorporate, however, ASSE 1070-2004, which is designed for fixtures such as bathtubs and whirlpool tubs that do not have showers. To correct this and ensure the safety of occupants of manufactured homes with bathtubs and whirlpool tubs without showers, this final rule incorporates ASSE 1070-2004. | 2014-06-03 | 2014 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2014/06/03/2014-12731/manufactured-housing-constructions-and-safety-standards-correction-of-reference-standard-for | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2014-06-03/pdf/2014-12731.pdf | Housing and Urban Development Department | 228 | This final rule amends the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards by incorporating the correct reference standard for anti-scald devices designed for bathtubs and whirlpool tubs without showers, ASSE 1070-2004, Performance... |
