closing up a vacation home
Hello all, I was hoping to get some advice from people with Vacation homes. What is the best way to close up a home if you're not going to be there for over a month? Should I turn off the water? Should I turn off the power (Breakers)? Should I leave the thermostat normal or turn it down to 60? I am a little concerned about pipes freezing so I turned off the water main and opened up a kitchen sink faucet (to allow for expansion). I left all power on so that the heater could keep the house at 60. Am I missing anything or doing anything wrong? I was a little concerned about the hot water heater having power but no water pressure. Any Advice?
