(GREENSBORO, N.C.) - It's a product that the American Valve
product development team wishes they never had to design.
Several days before her first birthday, little Leah McCammon was
taking a bath when she attempted to pull herself up using the
hot water faucet handle. The force of 140°F water knocked her
down and in seconds caused 3rd degree burns over most of her
body - she died several days later.

Unfortunately reports of scalding injuries like this are
repeated too often nationally. Each year thousands of children
and adults are severely injured by scalding tap water. In fact,
tap water scalds are the second most common cause of severe burn
injuries among people of all ages. But now a new product line
from American Valve called HotStop Scald Prevention Faucets, Tub
Spouts & Showerheads are aiming to decrease those numbers
worldwide.

How does HotStop work? - www.h2otstop.com When hot water reaches
an unsafe temperature HotStop quickly reduces the water flow to
a trickle to avoid scalding. Once the water in the line cools
the flow re-starts automatically -usually in less than 30
seconds. HotStop showerheads and tub spouts are UL listed and
ASSE 1062 approved. HotStop installs in minutes and requires no
special tools or plumbing expertise.

For more information go to: www.h2otstop.com HotStop faucets and
showerheads range in price from $24-$39 and are available
nationally at Lowe's stores or at www.lowes.com or by calling
American Valve - (877) 531-7470
