Heater part

[pattypape]

Hi Steve,

Did you replace the high temp safety switch on the hot water tank??
If so, which switch did you install???

The newer HWT's seem to trip at a lower temp than the original HWT.
Then the switch needs to be manually reset. I seem to also remember,
that the original HWT had an automatic resetable switch.
The HWT mfg. states that the high temp safety is set at 140 degrees.
WIth the engine running at 185/195 it sometimes trips the safety.
Cold water is not a fun surprise.
