hot water rv heater

"Hot Water Heater" bugs me too, but not enough to get as ugly as some of these posts.

Yep, best way to obtain hot air is to use the cold air heater. :B

Or, if you have an old house with steam radiators, you'd have to fire up the cold water boiler.

I've never really understood the objection to "hot water heater." It's the heater for the hot water system, and so that name seems to me entirely reasonable.

How many of you guys thought that the ever popular, "Why would you heat hot water?" was witty and original?
Betcha you're the life of all the parties!

Wow. I sure hope wa8ysm is still not driving too.

Yes, it will light and heat. Some steel tanks are lined with an anti-rust coating and that will be ruined. Aluminum tanks may not be lined, so other than possible warping, I do not know what damage would occur. The propane will be much worse I assume than the electric element as the element is not touching the tank, but the propane flame is.

I accidentally had the electric on all winter, but did not keep camper plugged in too often as solar was on roof, but did have it plugged in plenty long enough to find out... and when I put water in there were no leaks. I t was well after that until I realized the electric was on, when I tried running the AC off a gen and kept tripping the breaker with both AC and tank on.
When gas is on at least it makes noise.

This place is so funny at times. :B
