Hi,
Hydro Jet water heater, Model MI50S6DS13 Running too hot on lowest
setting. Does this indicate a thermostat problem? Unit is three years old.
Thanks for any help.

Is this a new problem or has it always been like that?

Could be the stat itself or the sensor is covered with gunk and not getting
a proper reading.

Once I had that issue and I was lucky the thermostat has a pin
sticking out as a stop, I cut it off and got mine to set lower.

I guess you may already know this but I think some units have two thermostats (upper and lower). Not sure about this one but if you see two access panels take them both off to check thermostat settings.

Hi,
Thanks for the heads up on this.
I posted for a friend (usenet phobic) and she says that the unit gets
drained for winter every year. Is it a DIY job to replace both
thermostats (if she can find the parts on Cape Cod, MA) before calling
repair person?
TA -_- how
