Solved Tankless Water Heater

It always worked well to shower.
We are at full hookups.
And 118 is our magic number.
Water cold a few moments once or twice in beginning..then stay hot with no added cold for a long time.

Enjoy the MH private shower.

On to Ballinger TX tomorrow then on the beach at Corpus Christi

Thanks gang

I am sure others holiday comments will be fun

104° in hot tub. Wow... I like HOT showers, but I think 115° + would make my skin peel! That's what I call sanitized!!

We never used a temperature near theirs.
I'm just glad that they found what works for them...

Wow, I must be a wimp. 98 is hot enough for me. DW likes 102 and we go full 124 for dishes (the cold at the beginning tempers it).

If it's working for you: leave it alone!

I always set ours to 120, but mixed cold water while showering, which never was a problem, while we had the Gemini.

WOW, our Girard does not like having any cold water turned on.

We are usually around 108 degrees, as high as 111 and as low as 105. 111 was too hot for me, my wife liked it.

Yes, that was a Girard. As long as I made sure the water pressure was right around 55psi, it always, at least as long as we had it, worked very well.

It took us a while to figure out the Girard but we found that 110 to 112 worked just fine as long as we used the water in our tank and not the water out of the city connection. That was too cold to start with.
