       @minrk The way they label the scale on a lot of water heater thermostats make no freaking sense, I still don't understand why they label them this way but it's been that way for decades. So each mark is *supposed* to be 10°F apart, with HOT being 120°F. If you want it hotter, A = 130°F, B = 140°F, C = 150°F, and VERY HOT = 160°F.  You generally shouldn't go any lower than HOT to prevent the growth of some pretty nasty bacteria in the tank... The low setting is typically used when you know you won't be home for an extended period of time, like when you go on a long vacation.
