Default thermostatic bar mixer - add pressure equalising valve ?

I have a themostatic bar mixer (triton tyne) to be fitted, same as one
in last house, but I lived there on my own, not really tested response
time when other taps turned on etc.
Would I benefit much from including a pressure equalising valve before
the themo mixer ?
Would this reduce the presumed temp surge if another cold tap is
switched on, before the themostatic module adjusts (would it *help out*
the themo mixer) ?
Also, how durable are the diaphragms in the equalising valves ?
TIA,
Simon.
