Yes we turn off the water in the house, even on weekends away. We had the Nova Filter System (TOTV advertiser) installed some time ago and he also put a very convenient, large, shut-off value just ahead of the filters. EZZZ-PZZZ.

Shutting the pump off at the timer allows for the timer to maintain the correct time and it doesn't run while we are gone.
