great list.

unplug the appliances you mentioned - surge protection.

turn off water to water heater - they don't leak until no one's around.

hijack alert - do you all have a pan under your water heater that is plumbed to the outside or to the garage floor if in the garage?

think of all the water - 40 gal / 60 gal - that would end up on your carpet or..... not to mention the water that will continue to flow trying to fill the water heater while it's leaking...

hijack alert off.
