Hot Water Heater on electric or gas
Which way would the water heater be more efficient? Will be using my Onan this weekend and wondering if it matters what setting I use ?? I am new to the Onan, can you tell ?? :B

If you are powering with a generator, you'll probably want your water heater running on gas.
If you are plugged into shore power, it doesn't really matter which way you run your water heater, or even if you run both. Gas will recover faster than electric, and Gas will heat from cold faster than electric too. But gas and electric together are best for fastest recovery.
It's all a matter of how fast you want to heat your water and the available of electricity (shore power or generator).
exactly what we do.
