it says the tank is 32.2¤
but the heater says nothing on it!
its got a dial at the top but it wont say how to turn it up or down,
i need to turn it down quickly but i dont know which waÿ
can anyone help ??
 
heaters usually have a red light that comes on when they are warming the water. The red light goes out when they aren't warming the water. Turn the dial one way and if the light goes out then that is lowering the temperature. If the light stays on then the temp is going to go up.
There might also be a little arrow drawn on the side of the heater near the dial which should show a + for turning it up and a - for turning it down.

Mine is a juwel heater and it just has + and - on it. Ive found if the setting is between the plus and minus you get about 28 degrees, but I suspect everyones is different. I will go and have a look to see if its anticlockwise that turns it down, that might help you. :)

Just checked. Funnily enough, anti clockwise direction is + and clockwise is -. So if its like mine turn it clockwise to turn it down.
 
I've got one like that in my Juwel tank and I found it a real pain. It took a couple of days and guesswork to get it to the right setting. Kept moving the dial a little bit, leaving it for a few hours to see what the temp went down to (the original setting was too high), then moved it a bit more, until it was right.

Don't know why they have to make our life so difficult - the ones with actual numbers on are so much easier to set.

the tempreature is reading 30 non stop, and ive heard they have a habbit of breaking, but instead of failing to work, they constantly heat it above 30 nomatter what.
so i am get a new one tomorrow morning. jerome and bichirio seem fine anyway so they arent being affected too much by this problem.
im just hoping now the thermometre isnt broken. nothing with this is going right!
