No, you will not run the water heater empty when you pump empty your supply tank. Water heaters of any kind fill with cold through the bottom inlet, give heated water out the top. Heated water rises so does air.
When your pump runs out of water to pump into the system, the water heater is still mostly full, as any air it might pump will rise to the top,then come out your hot water tap, so might make you think it is empty. Go open the drain, to prove it.

So I wonder about this as I am filling up my coach.
I ran the hot water until there was none left. So my water heater is empty, correct. It holds 6 gallons of water. Now, lets say I fill my water tank and take off, when i turn on my pump 6 gallons will go into the heater and then maybe another gallon to charge the other lines? So I am 7 gallons down and haven't done anything yet. Every gallon counts when boon docking in the desert.
Now, I attach my hose and go inside and turn on all faucets and add some to the toy let. Then before I disconnect I turn on my pump until it shuts off then add a little more until the overflow spills.
Am I just amusing myself or actually doing something to ensure i have as much on board as i can hold.
JD, miss you buddy.......
