    Suburban water heater needed reset

    While at a full hookup site, heating water on electric, evidently the high temp sensor tripped, and had to hit the reset button. Never had that happen before. Is it a bad idea to leave the hot water switch constantly on? Is that perhaps what tripped it?

    IW60 water heater

    I replaced my IW60RL water heater with a IW60 water heater. I can not get the On-Demand control center to come on.

    Hot Water Heater Electric Element

    My Suburban hot water heater is electric and prophane. The previous owner must have let the electric element get burned out. Is it a big deal to just let it run on prophane and not mess with the electric element replacement? Thanks, Mike 2017 27rkss Wildwood

    Will heaters burn wood?

    So I took out my front heater cores because a) I thought they didn't work and b) they were so large and in the way. However, in redoing the whole cockpit area and control panel, I figured out the heaters do in fact work (go me). I have insulated the floor of the cockpit and put sub floor down...

    Heater Intermittent

    We had an issue where we would turn on our heater and the gas seemed to ignite initially, but the air never got very hot and it wouldn’t re-ignite on the subsequent cycles. Turned out to be a broken igniter. Very easy to fix but it was hard for me to diagnose on my own because it seemed to be...
