My mother-in-law's hot water tank was installed recently and it looks like the contractor neglected to use the heat transfer paste that comes with the aquastat. As a result the tank runs quite a bit hotter than the aquastat setting. Can anybody suggest a source for the heat transfer paste other than buying a new aquastat? Is there something else that will work like silicone grease? Thanks for your help!
Silicone grease in an aquastat well?
