Todd,
Could you elaborate a bit more on your statement?
I have a 50 gallon electric tank that came with the house that gets power
for 30 minutes 2x aday and has enough hot water for morning or evening
showers and not a lot more. It has gone cold with extended use, say 10-15
gallons.
So I'm not saving much energy?
