Exchange the worn out element for your RV's electric water heater with Camco's 1500 Watt, 120 Volt replacement part. Also compatible with most residential-grade water heaters.
Features:
Specs:
A little slow to heat the water but otherwise seems to work fine. If we are showering, I switch to propane and back after.
It did the job - like ANY project there was any bump. My heater wouldn't drain. So I made a chute for the water to flow away from my trailer and switched them. HOT WATER first time since August.
I always get excellent service. Thank y ou.
Just what I needed to get my electric water distiller running again!
As always etrailer makes it easy. Competitive prices and shipping; quick service, easy website.
Replaced burnt out unit with this one over a year ago and it's still working great.
This was the exact replacement for the element that was in my Suburban water heater. Installation was easy with a few household tools and a 1 1/2 inch element wrench.
I had a dumbass attack one day and thought I had water in the water heater. NOPE! I still had the gas side, but I like running both when I'm going to shower. Recovers faster. Anyway, yes, this item went in easy and is still working fine. I will never turn on the heater again unless I KNOW there's water in it!
I installed it in my Atwood 6 galons tank. I added teflon tape to prevent galvanic corrosion on the thread.
My tank is aluminum and have no sacrificial anode. The element act as one.
My question is will this Camco element act as a sacrificial rod,I hope it will.
Service couldn't have been quicker. Very helpful on the phone. Everything I ordered was top quality, water heater element tool is heavy duty. Element was super tight but not a problem. Haven't used heater element yet but not worried. Etrailer is tops on my list.
The heating element works very well. Easy to replace.
Perfect. And an easy installation.

Still good, as it should.
Direct replacement for Suburban water heaters. Was shorter in length than the original but works just as well. Fast delivery and great service from etrailer.
Was sold as a replacement for my SW6DE however is much smaller than the original. I wish etrailer stocked the correct replacement, which you can find by searching for "Suburban 520900" which is an 11" 1440 Watt element, vs this 6" 1500W element.
Fits perfectly and is just what we needed after forgetting to turn the bypass valves after winterizing and turning the water heater on. Just another example of OA(old age).
Excellent direct replacement. I checked the local dealer and they were charging four times more for their off brand replacement. Thanks eTrailer!!!
It is still working just as good as the OE element it replaced. The water still gets really hot and heats up quickly. It has been a great purchase.
Good product and fast service! I get all my RV parts at trailer.
I installed this in my camper and had hot water in less than a half hour. The customer service was amazing. This element wasn’t in stock so they made suggestions for different t ones. I decided to wait and they sent me emails letting me know they were keeping an eye on arrival and then when it shipped to me.
Still working after a year.
Also I now remember to turn the circuit breaker off before draining the tank. :P
Product worked as advertised. Less than half an hour to install. Glad I bought the install tool to replace the heating element as I'm not sure my socket would have fit through the sheet metal hole around the heating element plus I will have it in the camper if I have to use it again in the future.
etrailer is always a great resource to get just what I need quickly. I have ordered from them multiple times and talked to someone on the phone several times as well. The customer service has always been top tier
Product fit and works although the element is substantially shorter than the original part that it replaces. Also, it would be a better design if the socket sholder used to tighten/loosen were taller (more substantial), but is the same as the original. Time will tell as to it's performance.
Easy installation and it works well!
Exactly what I needed, perfect fit. Got my water heater back up and running.
