    Abstract: The present inventive concept relates to a method for adjusting a water temperature in a water recirculating device. The method comprises determining a first parameter associated with a first water path; determining a second parameter associated with a second water path; determining a setting of a mixing valve arrangement based on the first and second parameter; and adjusting a water temperature of water output by a water outlet based on the setting of the mixing valve arrangement. The invention also relates to a water recirculating device configured to adjust a water temperature of water output by a water outlet based on the setting of the mixing valve arrangement.
