Tips
for choosing box-type water heater timer
1. Check load rating is 30 Amps or more for
safety. Most 240V water heaters are 3500, 4500 and 5500 Watts divided
by 240 Volts =
14.5 Amps, 18.8 Amps, and 23 Amps.
2. In southern states, outdoor installation in
direct sun will shorten
life of timer.
3. Timers listed on this
page are safe for 1 residential water heater. |

Tips
for choosing & installing water heater timer
1. Re-setting timers after power outage is
inconvenient,
especially when located outdoors after thunderstorm.
2. Check timer has enough on-off periods per day or per week
3. Men install
timers, but
women are involved and don't like remote locations
requiring flashlight.
4. Put timer at eye-level
In-wall
timer harder to install,
but gives easy
access any time. In-wall adds value to home.
