Shut off water at home???
When you leave home for a few days, do you turn off the main water valve at your house?

I shut off the water and the water heater. My friend had a leak when he was away and had to replace all carpet, underlayment, base molding and some drywall. Washing machine hoses only have a life expectancy of around 10 years so if you don't shut those valves, you could have a major leak right there. But it is your house and your time, do as you think best.
