I'm looking to install an on-demand water heater on my RV. Will this unit work on my RV for the shower?

Yes it produces enough hot water for an average shower. Mine does a great job

We use this model in our food truck (PA"S Pork) and have had a great experience so far. We do not use a lot of water out put at one time but it is hot, passes inspection for temperature, and is reliable. I would purchase again over a tank water heater ANYTIME.

This device would work on any RV. However you might want to consider the short fixed height unit vs. the crank up version for your pop-up.

Yes, it will work on it, as it replaces PART NUMBER: AS-35693A-C. This Anode Rod is made for 40 and 50 gallons water heaters. make sure you have a 1 1/16 inch socket wrench and follow instructions as per http://www.rheem.com/docs/FetchDocument.aspx?ID=aedbbc95-9a6b-4780-aa23-b0ed9abe41cd

No, this unit heats slow, holds only 10 gallons and would not service a shower for very long. It does do a good job for our wash basin where 12 guys clean their hands several times a day.

Depends on the wattage the heater draws, if it is within the stated wattage of the switch it should work, however, I would probably not use this type of switch for a water heater.

Not really. I installed a new outdoor shower in my courtyard to rinse off after coming from the beach or out of our pool. It made more sense to run electric service to he courtyard than hot water from my existing heater.

Yes it will. Use the third connection to put the showerhead that comes with the shower valve. the connection on the bottom is the supply from this valve. You will need it to turn the water on and off. You can find everything at amazon.

I personally don't thank it would work in rv. It's the water hook up that create a problem .

Yes. It works perfect for me,jus follow the instruction step by step and also you need to install a valve before the heater to regulate the amount of water passing through the heater to the recomended gallons per minute

Absolutely. Unlike a normal water heater which stores gallons of hot water that can run out, the on demand heater heats the water 'on-the-fly.' I love mine, and it has save me a ton of money on propane.

I don't see why not. this filters the tap water so there is no build up on the on demand water heater.

To operate, you have to turn on the gas while pushing the igniter, so it wouldn't work with the shower head away from the main unit. It works great, but I don't think it would in your situation.

Yes I have one on mine! This is an AMAZING product from a good friendly company made in South Carolina, and I use it on a daily basis for my off grid shower. One thing you have to keep in mind is this product is not designed for cold weather. I live in SC and since it is winter right now I built a heated box for it a few feet away from my dwelling.

The unit should be more than enough for a two bath system. Electric consumption will depend on how long each personis in the shower. What you won't pay for is heating the water tank when no one is using water. Hope this helps.

just hook it up to your existing hot & cold lines that are in the wall and it works. your old shower head goes away as this unit has its own. This is a slick way of re modeling your shower.

We have this water heater hooked up to regular electrical service and it barely heats water at all. I would not buy it. For any purpose.

The installation instructions require a 60 amp circuit beaker. I had mine connected to a 60 then I moved and now have it hooked up to a 50 amp. I had my brother test the amp usage of my unit and it uses between 42 - 44 amps at full draw. It has two heating elements and uses only one at 21 -22 amp draw unless you use enough water to kick in the second unit. Then it draws the full 42 - 44 amps. The heater only uses one heating element for a shower, but if you run the showing and a sink, then it uses both heating elements to meet the demand. They require 60, but mine runs on 50 just fine. I hope that helps with your decision. The installation instructions require a 60 amp circuit beaker. I had mine connected to a 60 then I moved and now have it hooked up to a 50 amp.
