[QUOTE="michael8554, post: 541808, member: 34375"] I'm not sure if you've ascertained which of the heating elements the timer connects to, and to which the "Water" switch connects. The top element, on it's own, will heat much less water than the lower one, on its own. At the moment it appears that only the top element is switched on. Or perhaps the lower element is burnt out, or it's thermostat is faulty. Ideally the lower element should be powered from the timer, so that only off-peak electricity is used to heat that large volume. [/QUOTE]
