We have an Atwood 6 gallon hw heater..it does a great job but runs too often..In our bathroom there is w/ switch w/ toggles for electric and gas..and red light but the light flashes for a brief moment when we switch, but light remains off even w/ he heater runing..How do we turn down, adjust or turn off our hw heater?..the manual provided is unclear..
Mine is older, gas only, no electric. The red light only comes on when it's trying to light the pilot, then goes out. If it stays lit then there's a problem because the pilot hasn't lit.

Propane generally heats hotter and faster than electric. Also, both on at once will heat hotter and faster. There's not a temp control. If you don't want it as hot you'll need to turn them both off occasionally.

We just turn ours on when we need hot water. For example, when I get up in the morning, I turn on the hot water heater. By the time I have the coffee set up, we have hot water. When not using it, we turn it off. No sense using propane when not needed.
