If you're gone for a month (or any length of time for that matter) - do you turn off your hot water tank? Or maybe you set it to 'vacation'?
If so, what do you save? I've got a vacation rental condo that is going to be vacant for the foreseeable future (heck - I'm open to offers and haven't gotten any) so I was thinking of turning off the hot water tank until the next renter comes in more than a month from now. Is there a significant savings to doing this or is it not worth the effort?
BTW, if I had someone who wanted to rent it, I'm guessing it would take about an hour for it to heat the water to 'regular' temp. Just a guess.
