Hot Water Heater
Hot water heaters are a major energy consumers in any home, especially because they are so rarely used. If you turn down the thermostat to 120 degrees, then you will use less energy without feeling a difference in your shower. If you go off on vacation, then it is best to turn it off completely. You might want to consider investing in an on-demand hot water heater, which will heat the water as it is needed rather than the entire tank while it is just sitting there waiting to be used.
