Hello Judi, thanks for reaching out. When you say "ball looking thing" are you referring to the part circled in the picture below? If so, this is the vortex mixing chamber. This is where hot and cold water mix to give you the right temperature of water. It is a necessary part of the water heater, so I am really not sure where your "tech" got that idea from. Sadly though, the vortex chamber is not a part we sell separately. If your water heater is no longer under warranty (2 years) it will be time for a new one.
How long have you had your water heater? What exactly happened to your vortex chamber?
Feel free to reach out and reply below if there is anything else I can do.

Thanks Jesse. I finally called Furrion and they said they had it as a replaceable part. It's in the mail to us as we speak. We'll see if we actually get the right thing. I'll post back here if we do. Cross your fingers!
