OK I could actually turn off my water heater and use a camp stove as I live alone, and just don’t was but one load a week, don’t go out but a couple of times a week because of my illness and am desperately trying to cut costs. So some have said if I turn it to as low as it can go (vacation?) then when I turn it on again it costs more, kind of like turniing your car engine off, it takes more gas to restart it etc. but how does a gas water heater work and why wouldn’t it be OK for me to use a camp stove for a month and see how much it saves, I’m either going to cut utility costs or have to do something drastice like ???? move, move in with someone etc. I am sick with M.E. so can’t work to make more and many other things. Hope I have explained it well enough so that you can just tell me like: If you shut if off completely in your garage, it will ???/ If you turn it to vacation and then on twice a week it will ???? Save or not or ??? thanks
AND WHY IN THE HECK DO THEY PUT WATER HEATERS OUTSIDE THE WARMED HOUSE EVEN IF THEY CONFINED IT TO AN AREA IT SEEMS SO STUPID TO PUT IT IN A COLD GARAGE UNLESS YOU OWN THE NATURAL GAS CO ????
