Wells & water/ CALCULATOR

Hot and cold water mixing

Estimate hot and cold volumes needed to reach a target mixed-water temperature.

Total useful mixed volume at the target temperature.
Temperature entering the mixing point.
Temperature entering the mixing point.
Must be strictly between the hot and cold temperatures.
Hot-water volume

60.00 L

Cold-water volume

40.00 L

Perfect mixing, equal water heat capacities and no heat loss. This is an energy balance, not a safe-temperature setting or thermostatic-valve sizing method.

FROM ESTIMATE TO ACTION

Use the result, not just the number.

01

Verify the inputs

Measure or document each input. If a value is only an estimate, record its source and test a conservative alternative.

02

Keep the calculation traceable

Save the input link or copied result together with the date, units and assumptions. A number without its inputs cannot be checked later.

03

Confirm the decision

Compare the estimate with the related guide, current product data and requirements that apply at your location before buying or building.
