I watch over my snow bird neighbor's house. He turns off the water, turns off refrigerator and leaves the door open. They open the drawers in the dressers in their bedrooms and leave the closet doors open. Has the A/C set on 80. You want to leave the A/C on as it removes the humidity in the house. Once a month I turn on the water and flush the toilets and run the water in the showers and kitchen sink to replace the water in the P trap that evaporates. It will surprise you how much water will evaporate. I let him know if the landscape people neglect to mow his lawn.
