We are glad to hear that the water heater you have reviewed is functioning as expected and arrived in good condition. It’s always a relief when a new appliance meets our initial expectations.

We are sorry to hear that you’re having trouble with your water heater. It can be frustrating when the instructions are not clear.
Here are some general steps on how to adjust the temperature on most electric water heaters:
It’s usually behind an access panel on the side of the water heater. You might see two panels if your water heater has two thermostats.
Unscrew and remove the access panel, and you should see insulation underneath. Gently pull back the insulation to reveal the thermostat.
There should be a dial or a screw that allows you to adjust the temperature. The recommended setting is typically around 120°F to prevent scalding and save energy. However, you can adjust it to your preference.
Once you’ve made the adjustment, replace the insulation and the access panel.
The blinking lights might be indicating a specific issue or error code. If the manual doesn’t provide information on this, it would be best to contact The Home Depot’s customer service or Technical Support team for assistance. They should be able to help you understand what the blinking lights mean and how to resolve any potential issues.
Remember, if you’re not comfortable doing this yourself, it’s always a good idea to hire a professional. We hope this helps!
