Pros and Cons of Tankless water heaters in RV
Thank you for your replies if any.
Forum Discussion
for RV use:
pros: none
Cons: the water will be cold at first, then if you are turning water off to save water between soaping and washing the water in the heating element will get extra hot from the residual heat that the non-moving water is picking up (is meant for water to run through and pick up some heat). When you turn nozzle back on you get that hotter water. Some complain it is too hot.
These are really meant for running the water continually. I really wanted to go this route but research turned up NOBODY that liked it for an RV. Not unless you have access to unlimited water and can run continuously
