Hot Water Heater Tips

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission says to adjust your water heater settings to no more than 120 degrees. The best way to check the temperature is to place a meat thermometer under a hot-running faucet for about two minutes. Adjust the temperature accordingly, and double check it in a few days. If you don't know how to reset your hot water heater temperature, contact a professional plummer or heating specialist for help.
