And sometimes it’s one you don’t want to do without. Sure, you can always use the campground showers for a hot shower, but a shower in your own RV is even better. A low quality water heater can keep that dream a reality. So what do you do? Upgrading your water heater with RecPro can get you on track to have the perfect shower in the comfort of your own rig.\r\nGetting a Suburban water heater from RecPro is setting yourself up for success. Suburban is a well known and trusted name in the RV water heater business. You get a water heater that is high quality and rigorously tested. This water heater is the SAW6D model. It runs on gas with a 12V DC connection for ignition.\r\nModel SAW6D\r\nThe model name tells you what you’re getting with your water heater. The SAW tells you that you’re getting a Suburban Advantage water heater. The 6 tells you that this tank is a 6 gallon tank. The D tells you about the heating system. This system used a direct spark ignition system with propane. The direct spark ignition uses a 12 volt DC hookup to power the spark that ignites the gas. And since it’s a gas system, it requires a propane hookup.\r\nThis water heater and tank measure 12.5”H x 16.125”W x 17.625”D. It's best to install this heater on the sides of your RV. It is not advised for it to be installed on the front of a unit. When installing, also be mindful of the items around the heater, such as slide outs and doors. Both of these can block the vent and cause dangerous gasses to build up.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSafety Features \r\nThis water heater comes with plenty of safety features. It is also pressure tested twice during manufacturing so that its integrity is ensured. The tank is wrapped in insulation to help retain heat within the unit. This insulation also helps keep heat from seeping into the areas surrounding the tank. This tank has a temperature monitoring system that maintains the water temperature of 135°F (57°C). This is non adjustable. Be sure to use caution when using hot water as too hot water can cause burning and scalding.\r\nThere is also a pressure relief valve installed on the unit. The valve helps regulate the internal temperature and pressure of the tank. If the tank reaches 210°F or 150 pounds of pressure, the valve will open and drip until the tank has returned to safe temperatures and pressures. The tank also comes with an anode rod. The rod attracts sediments that can corrode your tank and instead allow them to corrode the rod. The rod can then be replaced and your tank can remain safe and uncorroded.\r\nThis tank weighs about 32 pounds dry and 81 pounds when full. It is a steel tank and features a porcelain lining. It’s safe for drinking as long as the source water is safe. The inlet and outlet come equipped with plastic tubes that help improve the water circulation of the tank.\r\nThis is a propane powered heater, but it does require a 12 volt DC hookup for the ignition. It has a BTU level of 10K. Its recovery rate is 8.48 gallons per hour. This unit is just the tank, it does not come with mounting hardware. It does come with an optional flush mount door and interior switch to have a whole system. Because you’re buying a Suburban product, it also comes with a Suburban warranty. Hang on to your manual as this contains all your warranty information.\r\nKeep your water warm when you want it with a new Suburban water heater from RecPro.
