My Geospring

[semipro]

To flush I usually just shut off power and open the drain valve. The incoming water pressure helps force sediment from the tank.
To drain I shut off power, shut off water feed, open the drain valve and then manually open the pressure/temp release valve to allow air into the tank to displace the drained water.

It can happen, on any tank, any brand. Thats why many states have the code of a vacuum breaker.

Starting to see the monthly savings. Aug 16 was avg 3 degrees hotter than Aug 15 and i still used 220KW less power in Aug 16. Seems around $30 or more, probaly close to $40 considering the AC is on overtime this year its hard to say what the Geospring is saving cuz the AC is on 24-7.

Month 2 and the savings are up to $52 for Sept and $32 for Aug. So far thats $84 power savings in just 2 months.

I actually monitored mine with my effergy energy monitor for a few months last year. I posted it about it somewhere in this thread. With the 2nd or 3rd highest electrical rates in the country here in CT (well over .20kwh delivered) mine cost less than $10 a month in power to run. I was really taken back on how little power it used when I first saw the numbers.
