Also, I turn my hot water heater off every Sunday before we leave. Mostly because it's electric and the electricity where I am is expensive. It makes no sense to heat the water for 5 days when I'm not there. There is a cost savings for me as I can track every kwh using an online energy manager system provided by the electric supplier. It takes far less energy to heat the "room temp" water back up than to keep it heated all week.
