I do have trouble with the idea of "Burning a gallon fo propane produces about a gallon of water ...". That is to say, if I burn 5 gallons of propane, it will produce 5 gallons of water. I simply do not believe that.
I am certainly not going to tell you to remove your Wave heater, it's working for you and that is all that matters.
The water produced by propane combustion (catalytic or open flame) is a scientific fact, measurable and real. You don't need to take my word for it, the equation of combustion and byproducts produced can be found in any chemistry text, or online. Other hydrocarbon fuels produce similar amounts of water. You are combining the hydrogen in the fuel with oxygen in the air to produce primarily water, CO2, and heat.
