Hot water meter
just replaced hot water service and noticed the house has the old type meter with separate water meter on a timer.
This timer allows for water heater to operate on "controlled load" or night rate as it was called. Night rate between midnight and 7:00 am is cheaper than normal rate.
If u look at the timer it has 2 setable switches 1 front and 1 rear, this allows for "night rate" to be set from Midnight to 7:00pm and the other can be set to BOOST the water temperature if necessary at any time necessary for example 3:00pm to 4:00pm in the afternoon to make sure water is always hot.
I would like to do this but dont know which timer front or back is for the NIGHTRATE and which one is for the BOOST period
If u look at the timer closely the timers are set almost the same so both will be switching on together at night
Any older electricians out there would know, I haven't been able to find a picture of one
thanks
