Experiences with Products/Services of HeatMyRV.com?

My AquaHot system is in need of some significant service/repair (when is an AH service/repair not significant? ). I have done some research and spoke with some local people, Aqua Hot directly, and one of the more famous experts on the systems. I am inclined for several reasons to use the required products and services from John Carillo at HeatMyRV.com. I figure it isn't a bad idea to utilize the wide knowledge of this forum's members to see what experiences any of you may have had with their services/products before I spend some significant money. My initial impression of the company, gained through correspondence and phone conversations, is very positive. Thanks!
  • John Carrillo is one of the top Aqua Hot techs in the USA. Nothing more is needed.
  • Short of a heat exchanger failure, nothing on an Aqua-Hot is really significant. Might be a pain to get your hands in where hands shouldn't be put, but that's what you're paying the tech for.

    Thanks! Aligns with my impression.

    Significant may not refer to the size of the task, could be the cost. In this case its the latter. Most repairs for anything could be considered insignificant if you consider they only require four basic things - Time, Money, Know-how, Tools!
  • Realizing this is an old topic, but still unanswered, I figured I should return and update with my experience. John Carillo's new tank works great and fit pretty well in the old 431 chassis. Some minor trimming of the included bulkhead was required for the burner to fit with clearance, but nothing major. I had to make new holes for the mounting feet as the old tank was considerably different in that regard, but considering the overall job that isn't too hard. The exhaust lined up pretty well too. His product passed my pressure testing with zero leak down over 24 hours on all loops and the tank itself. I would recommend his services and products. He also provided timely responses to questions and concerns.
  • John's great. I have had him service my system at multiple RV rallies over the years. I have also called for parts and support without ever having a hiccup! He had helped me trouble-shoot by system over the phone and is willing to completely rebuild the burner system and accessories if I ship it to him.
    I can't say enough about his business and his professionalism as a business person.
    Hey John!
