Are there general concerns if I turn off my house supply while gone?
Details: copper pipe in house, gas water heater.
From basement floor: water in, master shut off valve, pressure regulator, then a “water cop” secondary shut off I had installed. This allows to shut off the water remotely and programmatically.
If I turn the water off at the water cop, and don’t drain the system in the house after it, (so water off but water in all the pipes and full water heater) for a few days or even weeks (house will be heated in winter and cooled in summer) would this be ok?
Risk of pinhole leaks if pressure changes due to temp?
Toto washlet and maybe the ice maker would still be using small amounts of cold water for part of that time.
