Replacement Suburban 10 Gallon RV Water Heater
Question:
I have a suburban 10 gal water heater in my 5th wheel. Want to replace with a tankless water heater. The opening is 16 7/32 x 16 7/32. I live at 8000 ft elevation and will need freeze protection. Do yall have anything that will work for my situation?

Expert Reply:
We do not carry a direct replacement for your Suburban water heater, I suggest the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater, # FR98SR as it provides hot water on demand, operating on propane. So you will have unlimited supply of hot water providing you have the propane on board, all set for boondocking and easier to purge system for addressing freezing temps as there is no tank to drain.
The overall dimensions are 12-5/8" wide x 12-5/8" tall x 19-1/4" deep with an access door of16-1/8" tall x 16-1/8" wide.
