CircuitSolver: About Us
CircuitSolver is a brand of ThermOmegaTech®, a leader in designing and manufacturing thermostatic temperature control technology. ThermOmegaTech® has been a trusted provider of thermostatic valves to the rail industry spanning four decades. Over the past 25 years, the company has expanded its offerings to include industrial, aerospace, defense, and, notably, commercial plumbing applications through its CircuitSolver® brand.
CircuitSolver® made waves with the introduction of the first thermostatic balancing valve tailored for domestic hot water recirculation systems. Since hitting the market in 2012, CircuitSolver® valves have been widely adopted, finding their place in thousands of systems across North America.
CircuitSolver® revolutionized the commercial plumbing industry by automatically balancing domestic hot water systems (DHWS), alleviating the need for labor-intensive manual adjustments. While applicable to any DHWS, these valves are particularly well-suited for use in hotels, hospitals, schools, high-rise buildings, and multi-family residences. To learn more about CircuitSolver® valves, visit the How It Works page.
What makes ThermOmegaTech® so unique is that we are more than just a valve manufacturer; we are experts in phase-change thermostatic actuator technology. At the heart of every CircuitSolver® valve lies our exclusive Thermoloid® paraffin wax blend actuator. This allows us to offer a wide range of factory-set temperatures that open/close over a narrow temperature band, typically 10°F.
CircuitSolver® balancing valves are available in many factory-assembled configurations, including integrated unions and check valves, ball valves, a thermometer, a strainer, and Viega ProPress® or Uponor ProPEX® connections. To see the full CircuitSolver® line, visit the plumbing products page.
All CircuitSolver® valves are designed, machined, assembled, tested, and inspected at the ThermOmegaTech® manufacturing facility in Warminster, PA., are certified to NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 & 372 and comply with the “Buy American Act.”
Beyond DHWS balancing, the CircuitSolver® brand also offers thermostatic solutions for drain tempering and tepid water delivery, further solidifying its position as an industry leader in temperature control solutions.
