Installation Process For A Dometic RV Water Heater
Updated 01/12/2026 | Published 09/01/2024
Question:
I bought a Salem cruise lite and the water heater was burnt up note: it was an all gas so I bought a Dometic hot water heater that’s both gas and electric but I have no clue how to install the on and off switch panels, and do I have to use a dometic switch board or can I use any?

Hi Amethyst,
What is the model number of your new Dometic water heater? If you open the access door to the unit there should be a sticker either on the inside of the door or on the unit itself listing the model number. Once I know what you have I can walk you through the installation process.
