I have asked about hot water heater running to hot water. Rheem Hot Water Heater, model #81V400 B. Had about 15+ years, never been serviced. Not rusted, no leaks, just started running exstremly hot water. Changed out top and bottom themostats, changed out top and bottom heating elements. Drained tank before changing heating elements.
Every thing done according to instructions. Note: When going to Rheem dealer we were told they do not make same themostat as mine, they gave us a similar replacement. The number on my old Themostat is EWT2L2-1,RI 190f, 2-A70-016-AP10-161 9119... Could this be my problem??
