Has anyone REALLY "done the math" when considering: Lowering the water heater
storage temp, I must then turn ON the dishwasher's heating elements to achieve
the recommended dishwashing temp? I would chose to lower the tank setting.


You can turn them on and off? I can only turn off the heating
elements for the drying period. When the water is coming in, the
heaters are always on. Are you confusing the two, or do newer dw's
have more switches?
