I am not sure what you are saying, the inside "switch" is for running on gas. The outside switch is for running on 120v. The BREAKER for the 120v switch is in the power distribution panel.
BTW, you can run on gas AND 120v at the same time. Faster recovery if needed.

| Originally posted by mcarter Bit confused as to inside switch and gas, I keep my outside switch off until I have ensured water is available to water heater. Once I have flow I enable inside circuit breaker, thus both inside and outside switches are on. Agree many leave outside on and enable heat from inside once heater has water, the gas part is confusing to me. Agree outside could be defective if it makes no difference. |
