Question:
We camp in Arizona a lot, usually out near Quartzsite. Will the Fogatti FG38FR keep up with showers for two of us off-grid for a week?

Expert Reply:
Evan, that’s exactly the kind of trip the # FG38FR shines on. With 55,000 BTU capacity, it’ll hold a steady shower even when your pump and tank is the only water source. The white-door version is # FG58FR if you want that look instead of black.
Since you’re boondocking, your limiting factor will be tank capacity and propane supply, not the heater itself, so make sure that is all topped off and you'll be good!
How big is your fresh tank setup? That’ll tell us how long you can stretch out before refilling.
