When you take a nice, warm bath or wash your dishes with hot water, have you ever thought about how hot the water gets? The thermostat is an essential component in ensuring the effective functioning of your water heater. The water heater's thermostat has a job to do – it makes sure the water stays at a good temperature, so that's it's ready for you to use.
When you turn this little dial, you are telling a thermostat — a mini-robot inside your water heater that knows what temperature the water is (the water running around your tank) — how hot or cold should this water be. It serves as a thermometer of sorts to regulate the temperature of the water. If the temperature drops, the thermostat signals the heater to activate in order to heat the water. If the water gets too hot, the thermostat tells the heater to stop running so it doesn’t overheat.
The thermostat is kind of like the boss for your water heater. It communicates with the heater to tell the heater when to heat or when to stop heating the water. You can even tweak the thermostat to make the water hotter or cooler depending on how you like it. If you want really hot water for your bath, by all means turn up the thermostat. If you use warm water to wash your hands, you can curb it.”
In some instances, the thermostat in your water heater fails to operate correctly. The thermostat could be faulty if the water is too hot or too cold. Try that and see if it makes a difference. If not, you might have to ask an adult for assistance. So be sure that the thermostat works nicely so that you can have warmth water at any time you require.
Just as you would take care of your toys or pets, you will want to maintain your water heater as well. Regular maintenance, including making sure your thermostat is functioning correctly, is important in keeping your water heater in running order. You might also ask an adult to also clean out any dirt that could collect in the heater. It will also allow your water heater to serve you for much longer.
Your water heater’s thermostat has some wonderful features that ensure your hot water when you need it. Some thermostats, for instance, include a safety mechanism that will shut off the heater if the water is heated too highly. This protects you from being burned. Some thermostats also have something called vacation mode that you can set when you’re away from home for an extended period to save energy and money on your bills.
