I did the same for 3 years, but mostly for environmental reasons. It is a very effective strategy to shave off a fair amount of your personal carbon footprint (next to not flying). As you say the rush after the shower is amazing! I stopped, because in winter (central European) there were days where I was cold all day and felt like I would never quite warm up again before going to bed. In summer, however, I still do it regularly and it really helped during the recent heat waves.
