9.14 Adjusting the Storage Tank Temperature (Water Heaters)
The storage tank temperature is adjusted by pressing keys
and
. When the keys
are pressed, the display shows the domestic hot water setpoint being selected. The range within
which the domestic hot water can be set is from 104°F (40°C) to 140°F (60°C).
The right temperature to keep storage and save energy, is the lowest possible temperature
compatible with the amount of water you need. Start with a temperature of 120°F and check if
this is sufficient. If not, gradually increase the temperature setpoint, checking each time if it is ok
or not.
There is a hot water scald potential if the setpoint is set too high.
