A:  Hi, Ferry. Thanks for your questions. The energy usage on the tank that is included with this model is 0.605 kWh/day. This was tested at a factory setting of 200 degrees F. If you live in a warm climate, there is no need to unplug, turn off, or drain the unit if you'll be gone for less than 3 weeks. If in a cold climate, but the household furnace is left on (above 35°F), then the same as above. Unplug, turn off, and drain the unit if there is a chance of it being exposed to less than 32°F. If you live in a cold climate and the household furnace is off or turned down (below 32°F), drain the unit and unplug it.

A:  Thank you for your question, Mitch. If your old faucet has a plastic inlet tube with a colder fitting, it can be connected to our current tanks. This fitting is the snap connector that connects the inlet tube to the left inlet port on top of the tank. If your existing faucet doesn't have this connector, you can order the part through our parts depot, Carroll Parts (USA), at 800-654-3545 (carrollparts.com). It is part number 43103C, which is a kit that contains the Colder Fitting you need plus 2 screws for mounting a tank. However, if the old faucet has a copper inlet tube, it cannot be connected to newer tanks and will need to be replaced. Should you have other questions or need clarification, you can reach out to us via https://support.insinkerator.com/app/ask.

A:  Hi, Emily. Thanks for your question. The hot water tank does not need to have a dedicated outlet. You just have to make sure that the socket on the outlet can carry 115 volts, stay on continuously, and accommodate the tank's 6.5 amperage.
