I'm Wondering what to do about my natural gas hot water heater when I go on vacation this winter. I' thinking about turning the dial to vacation so that it will not use much gas and the water will stay a bit warm so that it will not freeze if the heat goes off. Also, I plan to turn off the water supply to the heater so if it leaks only the 40 gallons in the tank will come out. But is turning off the water a good idea. If all the water leaks out will the gas still come on? I' worried that this could cause a fire.
Thanks for any advice.
