Looking at RV listings online, I saw Rockwoods with and without the electric switch on the inside panel. All of the Rockwood examples I found with electric water heater switch on the panel clearly spelled out "ELECTRIC WATER HEATER" the examples I saw without an internal switch on the panel only labeled the gas switch "WATER HEATER" as described by OP.
That is because Rockwood also uses/used an LP only D series water heater on some models/lines. Every Rockwood or Flagstaff product I have ever seen, including the 3 we've owned since 2010, have had the inside switch when the water heater was a DE model. Perhaps the OP has a gas only heater?
