Answer
Kenneth, Atwood in fact makes 2 different temperature T-Stats. You should be able to get one at a local dealer. I know that alot of them don't like to deal with these things but they are available. As for your son's refer. If it is getting hot outside in the tubes and not getting cold inside then it sounds to me like it is the cooling unit that has failed. You will need to replace it with either a new or rebuilt cooling unit. If you want recommendations as to where to do this let me know and I will give you suggestions. Thanks, Bill
Kenneth, There is no way to adjust the thermostat and you will need to replace it if you want hotter water. They are easy to replace and to purchase as long as you go somewhere that they will get it for you. Thanks, Bill
