Hey Conner, I do not see any specs for electric operation with the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater part # FR68SR. Does it not offer both?

Hey Chris, the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater part # FR68SR that you referenced does not have any heating element portion of it that is electric. All of that is generated by propane. Propane is just way more efficient at providing a high level of heat quickly. To do that electrically would draw a lot of power which power is normally a premium resource in RVs etc.
