Do you have a thermostat set on your heater other than your RA? If you do not you might want to turn the heater off manually. You can also look at your history for the heater relay port and see how often it usually cycles... may want manualy intervention for the time...

I do have one on my heater it is set to about 83 if I am not mistaken. I thought about turning it on/off manually.

Always best practice to have a failsafe. I have mine set to 77.5 and RA set to 80 MAX otherwise if the internal for the heater sets stuck on (to 80MAX) the RA kills the relay port. I also have a backup for if the heater doesn't heat my water
Out for now...but not over.
