so run a experiment when you wouldnt be home for the day.


set heater to vacation, and check water temp when you get back home
that night, note it wouldnt have fallen much...


thats all you will save after spending a boatload of money. and take
note if you live where its cold in winter the water heaters standby
losses help heat your home.......


Good experiment.

Heres another good experiment, offer a endless hot water shower to a
teenager You will likely find them gabbing on their water resistant
cell phone talking for hours

There are also the super high efficency condensing hot water
tanks..... combustion occurs inside the water tank exhaust is super
cool using PVC pipe.

they avoid the downsides of tankless and cost about the same
