Energy Smart Water Heater and Timer use.
I recently moved into a home that has a new Whirlpool Energy Smart
water heater that uses the little computer control box and is claimed to save electricty. http://www.whirlpoolwaterheaters.com...ectric_how.php This water heater is also hooked up to a timer. The previous owner had the control set to "Smart" in which case the water heater operates like a conventional unit and also had it on a timer. I am under the impression that a timer on a water heater this new is of little use and that it will also interfear (sp?) with the operation of the Energy Smart circuit. I am thinking that setting the control to "Energy Smart " mode and not useing the timer would be a more economical choice. Should I disconnect the timer and let the energy smart circuit do it's job or can they both be used together? |
