So, we're headed south for the winter...

I live in South Florida so cold temps are never an issue, but I have never shut the water main. I also don't shut my washing machine valve or turn off my hot water heater. I don't unplug my appliances or electronics. I don't even shut off my ice maker. I don't do any of those things when I go to work or go out for the day and that's five or six days a week, every week. Now when I go away for a month.... Who am I kidding I don't do it then either. Life's too short to worry about anything and everything that might possibly go wrong. I have a friend who has made up check lists of things to do to prep his RV and close up his house when he leaves and things to do when he gets home... Not sure why. He never actually goes anywhere because it's too much work and too time consuming to do everything on his check lists.... Just my way. I'm sure others will disagree.

We don't turn the water off. We have a sump pump system with a water powered backup. I do turn off the water heater, and the hot water valve.
