RV On Demand Tankless Water Heater

To use in winter you need one with a winter package which brings the price up to $759 (not including shipping) but that sure beats the RV500's price of $1054 http://www.tanklesswaterheatersdirec...ermainpage.asp

And the new Girard is also short so you don't need the height, which is a problem for us personally.

Neat unit Lorna .. I don't see where it tells the temp rise that it can do .. any chance you have that info on it too?? ..

I noticed it has plenty of gpm to do the job in a RV/Camper, but the real nit-picky detail is how much rise you can get when you are pumping in 40-50 degree water (not 60-70 degree, which is ideal) .. that's the one mistake I made with my on-demand unit in my house (supply thought the attic space, great in summer/lousy in winter) ..
