The invention relates to a sanitary proximity valving (1) having an associated control device (8) with a sensor device (9) and a valve device (10) coupled with the control device (8), whereby the control device (8), after detection of a signal by the sensor device (9), activates the valve device (10) to release water. The aim of the invention is to provide a sanitary proximity valving (1) which can be used also in the private sphere without major inconvenience, and is thus characterized in that the control device (8), after detection of a signal from one side, activates the valve device (10) to release cold water, whilst the control device (8), after detection of a signal from the other side, activates the valve device (10) to release warmer water.
