I have an Atwood auto thermostat water heater in my '99 class C Coachmen. Does anyone know how to turn it down? It is so *$&*%& hot that I am afraid one of the boys may burn themselves.

Thanks in advance!

Atwood water heaters have a fixed 140 degree thermostat. If yours is hotter than that the thermostat is defective or not tightly against the tank. If 140 is too hot for you I think there are replacements available set for a lower temp.
