We have a Precision RV 550 in our coach shown below. We like the tankless system but it has taken some getting used to. The plus is that you cannot run out of hot water. There are several things to know about the system:
1. Pressure- You must have good pressure for it to operate. We rigged up a Watts home style pressure regulator which we hook up at the faucet. We maintain 50-52 pounds of water pressure through the regulator. A 45 pound RV regulator bought in a RV supply store WILL NOT WORK.
2. If a park has low water pressure fill the fresh water tank and run the pump.
3. The temperature is controlled by the flow rate at the water heater. There is a valve at the heater where the adjustment can be made. With good pressure and the right flow rate you will never run our of very hot water.
Good luck
