You may wanna check your thermostat on the water heater...

After a call from a client today (yes Sunday), I was questioned on how to adjust the temperature on their water heater.... After a few questions and relaying information I couldn't help but wonder how many others out there know? It's rather simple if it is a gas furnace as the adjustment should be in clear view of the unit, However electric units can be a bit more difficult requiring the access panel to be removed. Never have the water temp adjusted too high! If you are like me and have children in and around the house this could be quite a hazard as I'm sure you've heard. There are a lot of stories out there of people getting burned and or scallded. Be sure your unit is adjusted appropriatly, Otherwise a neat little contraption like the one below may do the trick...
