NOTE: During tow demand periods when hot water is not
being used, a lower thermostat setting wilt reduce energy
losses and may satisfy your normal hot water needs. If hot
water use is expected to be more than normal, a higher
thermostat setting may be required to meet the increased
demand. When leaving your home for extended periods
(vacations, etc.) turn the temperature dial to its lowest
setting. This wilt maintain the water at tow temperatures with
minimum energy losses and prevent the tank from freezing
during cold weather.
