Adjusting the Water Heater Thermostat
Water heater thermostat is factory set to its low-
est temperature. This may or may not be suit-
able for your needs.
Turn thermostat knob clockwise to
increase water temperature.
Turn thermostat knob counter-clockwise
to decrease water temperature.
Studies have indicated that dangerous bacte-
ria, including legionella, pneumophila, can
form in the potable water distribution sys-
tem if certain minimum water temperatures
are not maintained. Contact your local
health department for more information.
• Check water temperature at a hot water faucet
immediately after first heating cycle. Further
temperature adjustment may be necessary as
water heating system is used. Recheck water
temperature at faucet after adjustment.
• When adjusting thermostat, be sure boiler limit
control is set at a minimum of 20ºF higher than
the desired domestic water temperature.
