Hey lex, I commented a while back how you got me into maintenance and basically helped me turn my life around. Well my hard work is starting to really pay off. I just got into a brand new built highrise and a good raise to go with it. You changed my life man, thank you.

You can also run your kitchen faucet until the water gets hot. Your dishwasher water line and your faucet hot water line are connected. That way it starts out hot instead of putting cold water in there until it gets hot. Thank you so much for watching Brian!

It worked great until I turned off the power and removed the control. It went back to the default of 120. Any thoughts? Dipstick 6 is still flipper.

Hello Lex, I followed your instructions and by flipping the #6 DIP Switch, I was able to turn up the temperature on the remote controller (located in my garage) to 140F. The problem is, the water heater will not kick "on" with the DIP Switch #6 flipped. Interestingly, if I run the hot water, with the water heater off (when it should be on) and then flip the #6 DIP Switch back to its original position, the water heater instantly comes on. The remote controller unit again says 120F. I also tried using the manual which says to flip the #5 AND #6 DIP Switch to enable 140F but again, the water heater will not come on. If I flip them off while the hot water is running, the water then comes on again but the controller has returned to 120F again. At one point I got the water heater to light off with the temp set to 140F but it only ran for a minute or so, then turned off. It almost seemed as though it was sensing an "overtemp" or something. I returned the DIP Switches to their original positions again and for now, am using the water heater with the temp set to 120F. Any clue on why the DIP Switch flip you are recommending is not working?

I have this system in my house. I opened the box and took off the trim and I see the plug where you’re supposed to plug that remote but I do not have that remote. Can I buy one separately from Amazon or something to be able to adjust the temperature?

Can you lower the temp and without the controller? Or you need the controller to do it? I have a c53 Rinnai and its too hot like 141, no controller but want to lower it.

This works if you observe the following: if your factory settings have no.1 switch on, it must be turned off. Thanks

It's a thermostat that should come with the Rinnai. We took them off so the resident won't play with it. They're out in the breeze way so anyone could mess with the thermostat. That's why we took them off. So, all it is is the thermostat to the Rinnai. Thank you so much for watching Brandon!

Been dealing with these tankless heaters 4 years now. Makes no sense in an apartment. I have a 356 unit property and they run a duel heat system off of them so they break down due to the company not wanting to service them properly. Folks NEVER put these things in large properties.

Can i turn it higher by just 4 degrees to 124 degrees?
