Temperature for hot water cylinder

size5 · 2013-07-01 10:39:28

Young lad got in to hot press & messed with the thermostat going into the cylinder in the hot press:-( What temperature should it be set at ? As I believe that it shouldn't be set over a certain temperature. Advise appreciated

The correct temperature should be 60 Max.
Any higher increases the danger of scalding and lower than 55 allows the potential for bacteria build up!
