I looked at several web sites on ETS heat. Unless your utility uses off peak metering you really won't save energy. Hot water heaters used to use an additional meter just for off peak water heating. I know in Massachusetts and New York, the utilities don't use off peak metering anymore. The water heaters are radio controlled through the power lines to turn on and off the other element which is fed through a two pole breaker.
