    Leave hot water heater on or not?

    We have an Elec/Gas Dometic HWH When on shore power, is it best to leave it on or shut it off... I guess I'm asking, is it harder on the unit to stay hot or to heat from scratch 2-3 times per day Maybe a similar question when boondocking and using gas to heat the water... Thanks Rick

    2021 Wolf Pup 16BHS here. So, I'm pretty sure I accidentally sucked a few gallons of antifreeze into the hot water heater while winterizing it. You can probably imagine how this happened.

    Water Heater Breaker Issue

    2018 Cherokee Arctic Wolf: The water heater breaker tripped and won't reset. There is a 4 beep audible, then a pause, then the 4 beep sequence again, etc. Don't know if the two are related, nor do I know why the water heater breaker won't reset. Any answers out there? BTW, there is no water onboard.
