Water heater follow up

Recommended Posts

I had a post recently regarding my water heating burner running too long....my unit in my 92 Dolphin is an Atwood and there is no external type thermostat....I think it has a factory set one as the heater is the auto ignition model with the switch by the sink. I turn in on and it will run 30-40 minutes and then I get fearful and shut it off. Checking the temp with a meat thermometer shows 150 degrees or so. Whether it will shut off by itself has yet to be seen...I'm afraid if something is not working right I may ruin the heater....does anyone know how to check this unit's thermostat, which must be somewhere,??? Water does start to drip out of the pressure relief valve. I probably could live with it this way, but would rather not. Any help appreciated
