Finally cut my gas bill by $40 a month just from lowering the water heater temp

I used to keep my water heater set to 140 degrees because I thought I needed it for the dishwasher. Then my buddy who works HVAC told me 120 is totally fine for most homes. I dropped it down 3 months ago and my gas bill went from $85 to $45. Dishwasher still cleans fine and I don't scald myself in the shower anymore. Anyone else mess with their appliance settings and see a big difference?

Ugh I should've done this years ago too.

@milap35 yeah I was skeptical too but now I'm a total convert after trying it myself.
