Question about water heater.

[Docindahouze]

Also, there is also a 2 pole electrical circuit breaker for the hot water in your electrical box. Much easier to turn off the circuit breaker than mess with the thermostat setting.

Yep I see the electrical box with the shutoff. I’ll be trying to adjust the thermostat in a little bit.

Oh the joys of home ownership - I just pity the non-DIY folks who have to pay to troubleshoot and repair every little thing

Yeah I hear what you are saying. I’m definitely a diy kinda guy. I have to be able to visualize what I’m gonna be doing first though and a little push in the right direction of what to do hence why I posted this thread. I think I got the issue taken care of. I looked up a video on my particular water heater and how to adjust the thermostat. Apparently it has two and I watched a video on how to adjust them. Anyway I popped both covers off and they were both set to 120 Fahrenheit. I bumped both up to 140. I waited ten minutes and could already tel the different just from the kitchen faucet. I appreciate all y’all’s help with this matter. I always love figuring out things like this.
