How do you set the temperature settings on an electric Water Heater?
Is the temperature window on the upper part of the heater corresponds to the higher temperature setting and the lower window on the lower part corresponds to the lower temperature setting? I have an old heater and all markings are gone except for the temp dial. I am just making sure I am doing this right. Also, what should be the optimum temperature difference to save on electricity? 5 degrees? 10 degrees difference?
Thanks for all the help and any tips you can give to converse energy for this summer.
sorry, conserve energy, not converse. that is funny!
I’m sorry if I was not clear. I have two dials. I can see the temperature numbers but I cannot see or (everything is faded to nothing which one is for the high T setting and which one is the low setting. Please answer this one first.
You can set both top and bottom temperature settings the same or the lower one higher than the top control. The lower setting only means that control turns off sooner If one of the temp controls should burn out, you still will maintain the set temp.. On a standard water heater there is only one control because of the safety factors and different gases used, with electrical controls when they burn out you’re without Hot Water until you replace the controls. Set the temp. where you won’t run out of hot water, doesn’t always have to be set at a high setting.
