Go Tankless or Go Home

Tankless Water Heater

Say goodbye to quick, military-style showers, refilling your tank, and waiting for the hot water to recover. This revolutionary design replaces your outdated tank heater and gives you the luxury of taking back-to-back showers, washing dishes, and running a load of laundry all at once. Unlike traditional tank heaters that require constant energy to keep your water hot, this tankless, propane-fueled water heater only uses energy when you turn on your faucet or shower, providing the ultimate efficiency at a campground or off-the-grid. The endless, on-demand hot water has no recovery time and is perfect if you're on the road full-time or traveling with a large group.


Relaxing Showers without Scalding or Freezing

Vortex Pic

Has your warm and relaxing shower ever been interrupted by a cruel burst of ice-cold water? Perhaps you've been the victim of a scorching surge of hot water that scalds you and sends you dancing out of harm's way. Either way, it's the worst, but those days are over. Furrion's vortex technology is designed to eliminate those dreaded hot and cold water fluctuations by consistently mixing hot and cold water together to reach your desired temperature, ensuring those warm, comfortable showers.


Safety First

This state-of-the-art technology is equipped with built-in safety measures to ensure you, your family, and your RV stay out of harm's way.


Its dual temperature sensors automatically shut off power if the water temperature exceeds 149 F, preventing the unit from overheating while also reducing the risk of hot water scalding. The unit also has a flame monitoring feature that cuts off the gas supply if the flame goes out to prevent gas from leaking inside your RV and a built-in safety valve that allows pressure to vent at 87 psi to prevent excess pressure and heat build-up.


Anti-Freeze Control Board

This tankless water heater features a control board to keep itself warm when temperatures drop. Freezing water can damage the unit, so an internal thermostat monitors water temperature and will turn the heat on automatically when it gets too cold. This feature will only work if the water heater is receiving power and gas. You will need to remember to winterize the water heater before storage over the winter.

This unit is amazing, the water become hot in few second. really quiet and easy to install. Be carefull that you have enough water pressure and flow when using with water pump. Open the hot water side and add cold water without reducing the hot side otherwize the unit may shutdown. Instead, lower the unit target temperature and add less cold water. I'm really happy with this unit. Compared to the smaller unit like the Fogatti, this one suit well for cold input water. Fogatti sell their unit showing 2.2 GPM however this is true for input water temperature around 70 deg F, here in Canada our water temperature is more around 30 deg F. I have tested this Furrion unit with a shower and two faucet and I never lack hot water. I really appreciated the fact that three door size is available. I retrofited my Atwood 6gal with this unit using the 16x18 door. Everything worked well. I painted the door and door frame to match as close as possible my RV color.

When I placed my order I was told there was 1 in stock and my sales rep confirmed with the warehouse that yes there’s 1.
I was notified later that delivery was going to be delayed since “the 1” was sold and we had to wait for the next shipment… it happens but it sucked.
When it arrived the box had a gouge in it. No damage to the unit. Installation was easy. Made a simple grid base to raise the new unit to the height I needed. I previously upgraded my camper with PEX, so a few new fittings and it was up and running. Since purchasing, the unit has operated flawlessly. I won’t go back to a “tank” heater.
ETRAILER.com had a good price and they did deliver in a reasonable amount of time.
Will buy Furrion and will shop etrailer.com



by:

Great water heater! Etrailer did a fantastic job when the first unit I ordered was defective. They got a new one to me in a timely way.

Comments
After a year this has been a great water heater. It has a little delay that you have to get used to. The advantages out weigh the adjustment.

Of all the upgrades we have made to out fifth wheel Rv ( grand design reflection) this is by far the best. Installed this tankless water myself in just a couple of hours, in fact it took me longer to determine where I wanted to mount the controller than it took

me to install the water heater. I did have one leak after install but took care of that really easy. I would definitely recommend a tankless water heater especially the furrion. Not familiar with others but this one is excellent.



by:

We decided to go tankless when our atwood began leaking. Installing this unit was straight forward, although I did get hung up on the swap from 110 to 12v. After looking at installation docs for the old water heater, I discovered that the propane/electric selector switch in my bathroom branched off of the 12v system, and wired directly into the control system of the old unit. The heating element was the only component actually using 110. I ended up wiring this unit into the propane selector switch. This gives me a quick way to kill power if needed. Other than this hiccup, installation was easy. It is working like charm, and we are enjoying normal shower times again.



by:

Smaller than the Atwood 6 gallon that it replaced and way more hot water. Not to difficult to install.



by:

Absolutely amazing! Great instructions, took about 3 hours with a few retrofits for water and gas lines. Well designed in every way and HOT water, BOOM! Love it, L



by:

Fast delivery, great product.



by:

Works great just take a few minutes longer to get hot water but I don’t run out of hot water now.



by:

Easy installation. Good instructions. Works flawlessly for me.

At this point I have nothing positive to say about this company or their products.



by:

The unit was pretty easy to install. It has worked flawlessly for us. It is a joy not to worry about running out of hot water.



by:

So glad we added this to our travel trailer! Works great! We're setup in a permanent space, so we get endless showers with this. Well worth the money spent. Thank you!



by:

I have had this unit for a year, it was easy to install and has performed trouble free ever since, thanks for your follow up



by:

Quick shipping and one-time. Easy set-up but be careful about freezing temps. Works great.

  • Replacement Tankless Water Heater For a 2017 Jayco Redhawk Motorhome With GC6AA-10E Water Heater
    I recommend the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR for your 2017 Jayco Redhawk 26XD. This water heater only requires a 12-5/8" x 12-13/16" cutout so you will have no trouble fitting it in your larger opening. A 18" wide and 16" tall door is included with the water heater so you will be able to cover the entire opening from your previous water heater and door.

  • What Is The Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater Door Made Of
    The door of the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU - 16" x 18" Door # FR48SR is made of metal.

  • Does The Furrion Tankless Water Heater Have An Automatic Shut Off For Excessive Gas Pressure
    The safety valve on the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR you referenced is for water pressure. If the pressure reaches 87 psi the unit will vent to prevent excess pressure and heat build-up. This water heater has an automatic shut off for an overcurrent event as well but does not have a shut off for an excessive gas pressure.

  • Is It Safe To Mount The Furrion Tankless Water Heater In a Compartment Above The Propane Tank
    When installing your Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR on your motorhome, there is no required distance that it must be from your on board propane tank. It is important that your onboard propane tank is properly mounted in a well vented area and that it be fire blocked from any appliances or other ignition sources. Most RV manufacturers will have a steel box around the propane tank and vented below to the ground.

  • What to Do with High Voltage Circuit Ran to Atwood Water Heater When Replacing with Furrion Tankless
    The Furrion water heater part # FR48SR that you referenced does not use a high voltage circuit like the Atwood water heaters used for ignition so you would need to tape up that circuit and not use it. It would be a good idea to maybe get get rid of the circuit altogether.

  • Replacement Water Heater For An Attwood G6A-8E Water Heater
    For your Attwood G6A-8E water heater, you can upgrade to the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR and will work in your RV as it is listed as a direct replacement for your water heater. This replacement is listed as a "medium" door measuring at 16" x 18".

    Yes, you could use the Furrion Tankless part # FR48SR which is close enough in dimension that it would fit and work great.

  • How Much Propane Does the Furrion Tankless Hot Water Heater Use
    A 20lb tank of propane will provide @ 432000 BTU hours and a water heater typically uses around 8800 BTU to heat a 6 gallon tank of water. If you used 1 tank of water for each showers, that's about 50 showers off a 20-lb propane tank. You'll need to compare your specific hot water heater and the size of your propane supply to get an exact number but it's generally around 2% of the total supply. The Furrion Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR uses between 13,000 - 60,000 Btu per hour depending...

  • Tankless Water Heater to Replace Atwood cg6aa-9e for Motorhome
    Yes the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR will fit in place of the Atwood cg6aa-9e that you have in your motorhome. It won't be a one hundred a direct fit but it will install relatively easy. We also recommend having a pro handle the install of this.

  • Upgrading To A On Demand Water Heater For A 2015 Jayco Elite Travel Trailer
    The only option that I have for you is to upgrade your water heater as currently we no longer carry the Circuit Board 91365 that you need for your Atwood Water Heater GC6AA-10E. The Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR will provide you with unlimited hot water as it does not use a conventual tank. This means that you do not have to worry about running out of hot water as quickly with your current 6 gallon tank. Your current tank uses a cut out that is 12-5/8" tall x 16-1/4" wide....

  • Compatible Tank With The Dometic Atwood G6A-8E Water Heater
    I called and spoke with Dometic, and they confirmed that the G6A-7 water heater tank is not compatible or interchangeable with your current G6A-8E water heater. However, we do carry the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR which is a viable upgrade and replacement solution to your old Dometic G6A-8E. This unit uses gas with an automatic direct-spark pilot, and recovers up to 12 gallons of water per hour for a lasting supply.

  • Mounting Hardware Needed For Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater FR48SR
    Good question, and there is not a kit you purchase, you will just need to make a visit to the local hardware store in order to get the mounting hardware for the Furrion tankless heater: - Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - 16" x 18" Door # FR48SR What you will need is 1 inch wide butyl tape, and fourteen #8 pan head screws that are at least 1 inch long to mount the heater.

  • Recommended Replacement Water Heater For an Atwood G6A-7 on a 2013 Jayco Jay Pop Up Camper
    I recommend upgrading to a Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR. This will give you hot water when you need it and will save propane as rather than the tank constantly being on and hot all the time you only run when you need hot water. You will also not have to deal with lighting the pilot light that you have with your Atwood unit. You will need to make modifications to the gas and water lines but I feel it is much better to upgrade when you have to replace. The lifespan on a tankless...

  • Recommended Replacement For An Atwood GC6AA-10E RV Water Heater
    Yes the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU - 16" x 18" Door # FR48SR is a great replacement for an Atwood GC6AA-10E. It does have slightly smaller dimensions so your cutout hole will need a little bit of alteration to close in the gap but the performance boost is well worth it. The on-demand hot water and ability to set the temperature to a specific degree instead of the old fashioned arrow knob will make camping much more enjoyable. The # FR48SR has...

  • Replacement For Atwood G6A-6P Water Heater
    Your Atwood G6A-6P looks to be a 6-gallon, gas water heater, and as they are no longer in business, the best option to replace it will be a tankless water heater, the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater - Gas - Automatic Pilot - 60,000 BTU - 16" x 18" Door # FR48SR.

    I spoke with Furrion about your Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR and they recommended using distilled white vinegar to sanitize the system. They also recommended flushing the system with water for the same amount of time that the vinegar is in the system, (i.e. if you run vinegar through it for 45 minutes then rinse it for 45 mins with fresh water).

  • Replacement Water Heater For Dometic/Atwood 2C6AA-7 Water Heater
    I recommend replacing your Dometic/Atwood 2C6AA-7 with the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR48SR.

  • How Cold Can it Be for Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater to Function
    The Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater part # FR98SR will work in an ambient temperature down to 32 degrees Fahrenheit. If you will be experiencing freezing temperatures long term then it is recommend to winterize the unit. If the temperature just drops to below freezing overnight though this would not damage the unit. If the water heater is indoors in the cabin there shouldn't be any issue keeping it above 32 degrees.

    I'd be happy to help! For a tankless water heater to replace your discontinued GC6AA-7E I recommend one of the Furrion options, but you'll need to confirm the size of the cutout in your trailer to pick the correct one. The Furrion # FR98SR has a 16" x 16" door which should be big enough to fill your cutout, but if you have a larger cutout you can use the # FR48SR instead which has a larger 16" x 18" door.
