Doing some back of the napkin math, their contractual minimum of 2.5 kWh a day into your water heater works out to 75 kWh a month. This [1] site claims the average two person home uses 195 kWh a month, so it potentially could be a decent offset. I do wonder whether this quoted 2.5 kWh is energy coming off the server into your heater, or if it's measured somewhere else. Energy loss from thermal transfer would make a huge difference in measured input into your heating system.

Where are they getting 195 kWh a month? That's crazy low. Even when I don't need to run the AC or heat I'm in the 800's.

Sorry, I should have made it clear that I was referring only to an average two-person home's energy use for creating hot water monthly.
