How do you set temperature of hot water tank?

1. Find the thermostat: Locate the temperature control knob or dial on the hot water tank. It is usually located on the side or front of the tank.

2. Turn off the power: Before adjusting the temperature, turn off the power supply to the hot water tank. This can usually be done by flipping a circuit breaker or turning off a switch near the tank.

3. Set the desired temperature: Once the power is off, turn the thermostat knob or dial to the desired temperature. The recommended temperature for most homes is between 120°F (49°C) and 140°F (60°C).

4. Turn the power back on: After setting the desired temperature, turn the power supply back on.

5. Test the water temperature: Once the power is back on, turn on a hot water faucet to check the water temperature. Adjust the thermostat if necessary to achieve the desired temperature.
