Most water heaters have a factory setting of 140°F but temperatures of 120°F or even 115°F are plenty hot for the average household (more info). For every 10°F reduction in your water heater setting you can save between 3%-5% in your home energy use.
Have you adjusted your hot water heater temperature? Do you have tips or advice for other members of the cool crowd? Comment here to share your info.
