[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: WATER HEATER :MIXED

I would expect the output temp to remain what the setpoint asks it to be. Heat however, may be lost. 

If I were to simulate an insulated tank, the temperature of the water at outlet is the same for an uninsulated tank. The source side will supply heat to the tank to keep the setpoint tank temperature.
