scalded.
For energy efficient operation of your water heater, the suggested initial water temperature setting is
120˚F (49˚C). During the winter season, or any cold period, you may desire a higher water temperature
setting to adjust for the colder incoming water. This adjustment, however, may cause additional
condensation to form on the cooler tank surface. This does not mean the tank is leaking. During summer
months, the warmer incoming water temperatures will benefit the performance of your water heater and
reduce the amount of condensation developed.
Condensation does not mean your tank is leaking. Over 40% of reported tank leaks on installation are
proven to be condensation. To avoid unnecessary expense and inconvenience, make sure the tank is
leaking before calling a service technician.

As was stated previously, the recommended water temperature during periods when hot water is required
is 120˚F (49˚C). During setback periods, the recommended water temperature is 85°F (29°C). If it is
possible that hot water will be needed during the Leave and/or Sleep periods, set the Setback to 105°F
(41°C). This control may be used for the Sabbath. Please consult your local rabbi for recommended
water temperatures and appropriate times for the Sabbath.
Initially, the Setback Control will default all water temperatures to the setpoint on the water heater gas
control.
CAUTION
This water heater, when set at a lower temperature setting, is not capable of producing hot
water of sufficient temperature for sanitizing purposes.
