    Hi folks, I have a follow-up question about the electrical switch on my suburban WH. After I found and used the switch to turn on the electrical element on my WH, I started to wonder what it would take to have this switch inside the rig, next to the gas switch. First question: is this switch...

    Tankless Water Heater Question

    Hello Thanking about tankless. However, I've been told that the tankless models are only for Hot water, meaning that Cold water is not used in conjunction with Hot water...

    I took this RV in for service and since it was already getting stuff worked on I had them go ahead and winterize it. However, I plan on Dewinterizing it myself. What is the easiest way to get to the water heater bypass valves? Thanks

    Suburban Water Heater

    Did the annual flushing, new anode rod, new heater element (was needed). Now hot water volume is lower than normal. Have to start reducing cold water in shower within minutes of starting to use. Initial water is normal very-hot, so feel the unit is reaching proper temp. Same results on both...

    Water Heater Power

    this is in a '22 mini lite 2509S While cleaning out some mouse droppings, i found this tied up power cable that appears as though it might be attached to my water heater. I can't say for sure since it's tucked away pretty well under the cabinet and I can't get my head or hand back there...

    ROO 23SS Suburban NT-20SQ propane heater problems

    I have a 2014 ROO 23SS. The camper has a Suburban NT-20SQ unit. When plugged in to shore power or generator the heater works fine. I believe this is because the fan turns a little bit faster on shore power and will activate the sail switch. When on battery power the fan will blow for about...

    Water heater anode

    I removed the anode rod from my 6 gallon Suburban water heater. The anode was gone, only a small thin rod left. Gray oozing junk flowed out of the open heater. I assume this is the consumed anode. Do I need to flush the heater?
