Camco 7044 Water Heater Thermostat 240V Domestic

Product Description

The CAMCO 7044 is a domestic water heater thermostat designed as a direct replacement for Apcom-style units operating on 240 volts AC. The thermostat regulates water temperature inside residential storage-tank water heaters by cycling the heating element on and off in response to temperature changes. Licensed plumbers and water heater service technicians install this component when an existing thermostat fails to maintain setpoint or causes nuisance tripping. The 240-volt rating makes it suitable for standard residential electric water heater circuits found throughout North America.

This thermostat is intended for use in domestic electric water heater applications. It follows the widely used Apcom-style form factor, making it a straightforward swap-out on a broad range of residential storage-tank units. The domestic classification indicates it is sized and rated for household water heating service rather than commercial or industrial systems. Plumbing contractors and HVAC technicians handling water heater calls will recognize the Apcom-style mounting and wiring configuration on sight.

• Apcom-style form factor for broad residential water heater fitment

Compatibility

Installation Notes

A licensed plumber or qualified water heater technician should perform this replacement. Before servicing, shut off the electrical supply at the breaker and verify the circuit is de-energized with a non-contact voltage tester before touching any wiring. Work must comply with applicable local plumbing and electrical codes, including NEC requirements for electric water heater circuits. Do not restore power until all wiring connections are secure and the access panel is reinstalled.
