Just a quick question...
I have run my Sani Cycle a few times and I can hear the water heating and when the pump starts again there is a fair amount of steam the exhausts from the vent. But when I measure the water being drained it only shows 154, at most, on an instant read thermometer.
It's my understanding that these machines had a 180 degree sani cycle and it wasn't until later on when the sani cycle temps were dropped to 160.
Do I have a bad thermostat on the machine, perhaps over sensitive, or is the water temp really dropping that much in the few minutes by the time it drains? I understand the timer and pump will not advance and restart until the target temp is reached, so what is happening here?
Thank a bunch, as always!
