Temperature Regulation

Due to the nature of the typical gas water beater, the water tem-

Foerature in certain situations may vary up to 30°F higher or wer at the point of use such as, bathtubs, showers, sink, etc.

This means that when the temperature adjustment dial is set at

the mark approximating 120 ° F, the actual water temperature at any hot water tap could be as high as 150°F or as low as 90°E

Any water heater's intended purpose is to heat water. Hot water is needed for cleaning (bodies, dishes, clothing). Hot water will present a scald hazard. Depending on the time element, and the

people involved (normal adults, children, toddlers, elderly, infirm, etc.) scalding may occur at different temperatures.
