  • It's called a water heater .. Not a "hot water heater" .. If the water was already hot coming into your home, you wouldn't need a "hot water heater" .. Heh ...

  • STRONG WARNING about this video. Be careful about setting your water heater below the standard setting for normal use (say 120 degrees). Although it is not always possible, a temperature below the 120 opens up the possibility of Legionnaires disease. Run an internet search about Legionnaires disease in water heater. JUST a precaution.

  • Great video, thank you. 

  • Wasted space on Youtube servers

  • Natural gas water heater how does it work?....Oh wait. Is he asking us? Cause I didn't learn a damn thing about how one works.

  • Plus you run out of hot water faster. With a higher temp you can add more cold water and theirefore use less hot water from the tank. I don't know where this guy is getting his numbers from, but my gas bill in the summer is $20 a month. This is with a gas dryer, gas water heater and a gas stove. Turing it down isn't going to save much and like I said you will run out of hot water faster. Finally the dishwasher can't sanatize properly below 120 degrees and will use more energy trying.

  • @chipsilcox .....eat shit asshole

  • no brace or stand ?

  • I did that and was worse

  • its called a thermostat they could save alot of money by not calling you for and listening to your semi nontechnical wanna be plumber talk
