Troubleshooting
The knob is loose or doesn't stay in place.
Ensure the knob is properly seated on the spindle. If the spindle is damaged, the knob may not stay in place. Inspect the spindle and replace the knob if needed.
The hot water temperature is not changing after adjusting the knob.
Ensure the boiler is receiving power and that the gas supply is on. Check the boiler's user manual for troubleshooting steps related to the hot water system. If the problem persists, the issue may lie elsewhere in the system.
The knob is difficult to turn.
Try lubricating the spindle with a small amount of heat-resistant grease, if accessible. If the knob remains difficult to turn, the thermostat unit might need professional servicing.
