Dave,

Might think about still draining the water, UNLESS you have hot water heat. Your furniture will be fine at about 45 to 50. Believe 45 might be as low as many furnaces will go. Have set ours at 47, furniture was AOK when we returned.

I don't want that water on tho, in case the power goes out and the furnace cannot run, therefore freezing the lines and pop goes the lines when the house warms up, and now, mucho dry wall damage.

So, we drain, even tho the heat is still on.

I wish our low bill was like Rich's. Geeshhhh. That said, we cut our bill considerably when compared to what it is when we stay in the north and freeze our back sides off.
