safest is to use solar powered water heater. My house is using it. It's been raining a lot lately and the sun is hardly out. But we still get enough warm water for shower and haven't had the need to switch on the electric heater. Water is not hot as during hot days but still warm enough to take a shower.

Parts that seldom use and longtime no use is more danger when 1 day you ON it. i on it and heat up the water for a while. then i switch off and take a shower. How dangerous can it be?  maybe I need to worry about falling off the bed as well. |

If so worried about it, permanently disconnect electric supply to the unit. Oh wait ... what if lightning strike the unit ... and you are taking a shower when that happens. Ohh dear ... life is full of worries. hahahaha |
