groove, replace it.
Thermostat Valve Opening Temperature
1. Suspend the thermostat in the water by a string with its end
inserted between the valve and seat.
2. Heating the water gradually, read the temperature when the
valve opens and leaves the string.
3. Continue heating and read the temperature when the valve
opens approx. 8 mm (0.315 in.).
