usually people don't like hyphunating (and i can't spell) so i think you'd usually do
"night light" and "hot water heater".

Both "nightlight" and "night-light" are correct. However, "hot water heater" never uses a hyphen.

A nightlight is a dim light that you leave on all night. Usually used in childrens' rooms so that they can find their way to the bathroom without bumping into things or tripping over their toys.

A "nightlight" is a small, dim light left on all night so as to offer some light (in case one needs to, say go to the bathroom or perhaps give a feeling of security to a child that is scared of the dark).

"While you're at it, leave the nightlight on inside the birdhouse in your soul." Sorry, I had to, They Might Be Giants makes me happy!
