This kit will safely convert your propane water heater to electrical use while keeping your low pressure propane system in tact. The heater cord requires a 110v outlet, so if your RV electrical system does...

• Can The Hott Rod Conversion Kit Work On A Stiebel Eletron Water Heater
  The Hott Rod RV Water Heater Conversion Kit # DGR10VP has only been confirmed to fit Atwood, Suburban, American, and Moreflow water heaters with 10 gallon tanks so there isn't a guarantee that this kit will fit your current water heater. Realistically this should work, but it's really going to depend on whether or not the included reducers match the thread size of your water heater.

  Based on what I can see in the picture you attached of your Holiday Rambler's water heater, it appears to be an American model system.

• What Material Is The Hott Rod RV Water Heater Conversion Kit Anode Rod Made Of?
  Hey Zac, thanks for reaching out. The Diamond Group Hott Rod # DGR10VP uses a stainless-steel heating element, rather than a traditional magnesium or aluminum sacrificial anode rod. One important distinction is that the Hott Rod is designed to heat water, not provide the same corrosion protection as a sacrificial anode. If you're installing it in a Suburban water heater with a steel tank, you'll want to account for that when replacing the original anode rod. Are you mainly looking to...
