Water Temperature Adjustment

The water temperature setting can be adjusted from 70°F to 160°F. Turn the Gas Control/Temperature Knob to the desired setting/temperature.

Operating Modes and Settings

Standard Mode - The controller adjusts the water heater to maintain the temperature set by the user.

Vacation Setting - The Vacation Setting (VAC) sets the controller at approximately 70°F. This setting is recommended when the water heater is not in use for a long period of time. This effectively turns the controller temperature setting down to a temperature that prevents the water in the water heater from freezing while still conserving energy.
