We don't have outside shower nor hot water heater in our Caribou.
I'm not sure where the heater would be installed; I'm guessing: under the kitchen counter?
I think you need to find the aluminum frame (hidden under the fiberglass laminated sandwich making up the camper walls) to determine where to cut through, to mount water heater frame properly. However, the only way to know for sure, is to contact Outfitter with your unit's serial number.
The best way to identify where the aluminum framing is located: on a summer/fall morning when there is a heavy condensation early AM, the outline of the aluminum frame will be VERY evident (the condensate will adhere to the outside camper shell mirroring the frame). You could then use a marking device to lightly mark the framing members, then create a CAD drawing of the entire camper shell framing structure using measuring tools. Same principal discovering aluminum roof framing (both outside and inside).
Good luck.
Thanks for the info silversand. BTW, I'm not sleepy, there's someone else here that goes by that name. Looks like I might be getting an Outfitter!
