The Rheem company, formerly known as Rheemglas, produces heating and cooling equipment for the home. One of the company's products is a line of electrical hot water heaters that can be installed in your home to keep your water warm without using propane or natural gas. If the temperature of your water is not what you want it to be, you can adjust the temperature on your Rheemglas by using a thermostat. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Find the adjustable thermostat knob for your hot water heater. It will be near the bottom of the unit and will look like a standard dial. Ensure that all faucets and valves that are connected to the hot water heater are turned off before making the adjustment.
2. Press in on the thermostat knob to unlock the child-resistant control. You will hear a click to indicate that the controls are unlocked. Turn the dial to adjust the thermostat to a higher or lower setting than it is on. The temperature is not labeled on the scale, but the lowest setting is 60 degrees Celsius while the maximum setting is 75 degrees.
3. Move the dial until the arrow is on the location you want. Pull out on the knob to lock the thermostat in place and activate the child resistant controls. You will hear a click to indicate that the knob is locked in place at the current temperature.
4. Allow the hot water heater to operate for a few hours. After the unit has had a chance to heat the water in your system, turn on a faucet that is connected to the hot water heater and let the hot water run for a moment. If the water is too hot or too cold for your liking, you can go back and readjust the temperature until it is at the optimum level for your home.
