Or Pennsylvania? We forgot to turn our hot water heater back on until after I started taking a shower, and then it occurred to me that Heather probably wouldn't have thought to do it. I went downstairs to turn it on, and after being off for two weeks, still contained water almost as hot as we usually keep it.
I suspect the arguments for point-of-use and other electric heaters don't make sense any more, compared with newer water heaters.
We bought the heater when we moved in, and we ended up getting a 9 year warrantied "short" heater - the "tall" heater I first bought wouldn't quite fit in the existing ducting, and Home Depot doesn't sell 12 year warrantied "short" heaters.
your blog is listed as "Lift Up Yo" in bloglines.
gave me a chuckle...
"Lift Up Yo" -- I don't know if that reflects my Philadelphia heritage or my recent exposure to Swiss German.
I didn't even think that the hot water could have been left over in the tank. That's the temperature it comes out of the pipes in the summer.
