[QUOTE="OKRuss, post: 4381914, member: 41777"] [USER=32877]@Mr.Glock[/USER] Here's something that I read and had no idea but makes sense. "The unit has no internal memory. Since I'm on the off peak hour program with my power company, they can remotely shut the power off to the unit.

Since ours is in a bunkhouse that likely won't get visited in Jan/Feb, I think I will be adding a 'backup' milkhouse heater on a thermostat plug just in case and put it directly in front of our sink and water intake.
