The Mira Vision BIV cartridge is TMV2 approved out of the box. For TMV3 (healthcare) fit the -HC suffix variant.

OEM or aftermarket for Mira?

For TMV2/TMV3 compliance always fit genuine Mira cartridges. Aftermarket voids the Vision BIV approval.

How to Replace the Thermostatic Cartridge on a Mira Vision BIV (UK)

The part

Rebalance a scaling Mira Vision BIV by swapping the OEM thermostatic cartridge — restores TMV2 approval and 38 °C set-point.

Isolate

Isolate hot and cold at the built-in EasyFit valves or dedicated isolators. Drop the pressure by opening the outlet fully.

Swap the thermostatic cartridge

Undo the temperature handle grub screw, remove the escutcheon and pull the cartridge with the OEM extraction tool — needle-nose pliers will crack the Mira plastic housing.

Commission

Balance hot and cold to within 0.5 bar. Run the Mira Vision BIV at max flow for 3 minutes.

Verify max outlet temperature stays below 46 °C per BS EN 1111 by shutting off cold and reading the outlet.
