How high do I have to set the temperature control on my water heater to make sure I have an adequate supply of hot water?
A. Most people are comfortable with their hot water set at 120 degrees Fahrenheit, which is pre-set by manufacturers. If you have an older model water heater, set the thermostat at medium. On gas models there is a dial on the front of the gas valve. On electric models the thermostat (there may be two) is concealed behind one or both panels on the side of the tank. NOTE: Turn off the electricity before removing the panels to set the thermostat(s).
