What temp should elect immersion heater be set to?
"dave" wrote in message ... What temperature should an electric Immersion heater be set to? Is there a recommended max (even though it may be possible to go beyond that). I've heard that if set too high, the pipes clog-up faster. It is more a safety issue (AFAIAC) If you set it high then children may scald themselves. So I set mine to uncomfortably hot, yet not immediate injury, if you see what I mean, I believe this is about 60 - 65 degrees, but best try it for yourself, then make sure you have enough hot to run a bath! Some experimentation may be needed. |
