Set your hot water tank to the vacation setting, this will ensure water is heated only to a minimum level while you’re away. To save additional energy you may also choose to turn the pilot light off on your water heater. Turn down the temperature, greater savings can be achieved by reducing temperatures consistently over longer periods of time during the heating season. Be aware that during colder months, the more you reduce your thermostat, the greater the chances of your water pipes freezing in extreme weather circumstances. So don't try that. More tips are available here And happy holidays.
