Hey Guys --

And what are ya'lls thoughts on hot water heater timers? I have a new
50 gallon hot water heater (electric) I put in last year, and it's not
a cheapo one -- so i assume it's very efficient. Would I get any
noticeable benefits using a timer?

Thanks again --

I would think electric hot water heaters should heat water at near 100%
efficiency (if you ignore losses in generating the electricity, which
are somebody else's problem), and, if well insulated, probably won't
benefit much from using a timer. But I haven't actually tried it.
