It simple, the water valve had three solenoids. One for hot, one for warm and one for cold. When hot is selected the hot solenoid is energized bringing in hot water only from your hot water line. When warm is selected the warm solenoid is energized which mixes hot and cold and keeps the water around 105F by raising or lowering a copper thermostatic plunger to regulate how much hot water enters the mix. When cold is selected the cold solenoid is energized which brings in tap cold water. When COOL is selected, the warm and cold solenoid valves are BOTH energized. This mixes 105F warm water with tap cold. The 1957 Lady Kenmore also has a "Medium" setting which energizes both Hot and Warm solenoids. This mixes hot water with 105F warm water. |
