The unit would have been an easy install BUT the two red wires coming off the heating element were too short with the limited access inside my trailer next to the hot water tank. Had to splice more wire onto those two wires. Once everything was installed, I ran the power cord through the cabinet under the sink and then into the power panel next to the sink. I cut off the plug and used wire nuts to splice it into the 14 ga. wire feeding the GFI circuit on the panel. Not sure how you are supposed to plug an 8' cord into anything as there is no AC voltage anywhere nearby. Hopefully this will allow us to use this heater while on shore power without tapping propane.

It gets the water really hot, but it takes a long time to get there.

Pros: It does work, it will heat your water up. It is fairly easy to install Everything you need is included Cons: Takes hours to heat up 6 gal of water 45 to 140 in 4.8 hours. recovery time very slow - the more water you use the longer it takes to heat the water back up. If you have the time this will work for you, or you can use propane and have hot water in 20 min.
