Why would anyone bother turning off the water heater, especially if you have electric hookups that you've paid for?? :h

I have the best possible motivation, to keep DW happy. No logic about energy use or time spent waiting can trump that. She can be a light sleeper and can hear it cycle overnight if left on.

How does she hear the electric element turn on/off?

I've never heard the propane cycle on from inside the trailer.

Propane.....yeah can hear ours, can hear neighbors, sometimes can hear ones down the way if open area.
I can hear the click of spark electrode on ours.
Course 30 yrs of operating boilers I hear things others don't.....nature of the beast I guess
