Cobbler:

Yes it's okay to shut down and start up again tomorrow. I've done it several times and don't worry about your copper.

Cheers

When ever I shut down at night I was told to take out the thermometer and or the thumper because then u will relieve the little pressure that has built up inside and reduce the chance of an inplosion from the out side in. Dont think that could happen but better be safe then sorry later.
