10 Answers I have this hotwater heater that has a mind of it's own. Some mornings I have plenty of hotwater and others I have just warm water. I have checked the element and they check good. I have not been using hotwater anywhere else on the mornings that the water is warm like clothes or dishwasher. The thermostats are set on 140. Anyone have an idea what's wrong?

Anyone have an idea what's wrong? | The way the thermostat looks when you set the temperature unless you really look at it, it looks like you turn it counterclock wise instead of clockwise. Temp settings are A, B, C and it shows HOT at the top not sure why this causes you to think you should go this direction. Make sense? | | |
