Hey Scott, most likely yes but we currently only have a 6 gallon RV water heater in the standard style of RV water heaters with the part # DMC74FR. We also have tankless water heaters though like the Furrion part # FR98SR which essentially never run out of hot water. This would be a really solid option to gain additional hot water if that's what you are looking for.

Hey Scott, how did things go with your water heater upgrade? Did you end up going with the 6-gallon replacement or try the tankless option for more hot water? Your update could make it easier for others deciding between the two styles.
