    Thermostatic (shower) tap. They are pretty common where I live in Europe. They actively adjust the water mix to stabilize output temperature. Also great for when somebody flushes the toilet or turns on a tap elsewhere in the house while you’re showering.

      seems like a smarter solution than what one house I lived in did of just oversizing all the plumbing and having a recirculating hot water pump (probably could help prevent freezing, but it only got to -40 once or twice there) so you could run all faucets, the washer, and the dishwasher and still have pressure at the furthest shower.
