-Use Electricity -
But Use It
"Efficiently"
For maximum efficiency most hot water tanks are set
at 150 degrees fahrenheit.
Excessive water temps cause heat loss at the tank
and through the hot water pipes.
Low temps, or short supply of hot water may indicate
a burned out element.
This could leak current indefinitely and still furnish a
limited supply of heated water from the other element.
A leaking faucet that runs a small 3" stream before
breaking into drops uses about 1000 gallons of water
per month and as much as 250 K.W.H. per month of
power to heat this water.
A water pump that "short cycles" wastes electricity.
A foot valve that leaks causes a pump to run too much.
