Hello,
I have received mixed advice on this question.
I'll be leaving my condo for the summer and have a friend checking on the place 1x week.
Would you recommend shutting the water off?
Some have said this releases pressure in the system and gaskets dry out. I actually had an issue of this last summer with the water off where the shower handle got a leak that wasn't there before I left.
On the other hand there is peace of mind knowing the place isn't going to flood due to some unfortunate leak.
Thank you!
