Hello,
Have the typical vertical cylinder gas fired house hot water heater.
The thermostat on the gas control has a little raised bar on the dial half-way between the HOT and WARM marks.
This is where it is set presently.
I am assuming that this is the typical or avg. temp. setting.
Is it safe to go, e.g., half way between this mark and the HOT (max.) Mark ?
Half way would be approx what temp., do you think ?
Would like to try raising the temp. as the wife is always complaining about not enough hot water.
Not sure how much to raise it to be safe; both from a scalding viewpoint, but also for the safety of the tank.
Thanks, B.
