I am making an attempt at brevity for the sake of clarity:
I have a 1500w water tank element @120v.
When the element comes on, the power is at 100%, essentially boiling the water immediately around the element. I need a lower heat output. The idea is lower heat output for longer periods of time rather than a crazy amount of heat all at once.
Is there a cost effective way of reducing the harsh heat output of the element?
I need to maintain a water temperature of about 75 to 80 degrees. Can this be done with a simple household water tank thermostat?
Thanks in advance for your help. You are some pretty brainy individuals. lol
