Product Description
All Atwood water heaters feature a patented “through tube” combustion chamber, utilizing the pilot flame to help maintain water temperature rather than losing this heat energy into the atmosphere. All units are lightweight and compact, with all controls accessible from the front for easy servicing. Many Atwood water heater models feature a heat exchange system in which the water from the vehicle’s engine is piped to the water heater and then returned to the engine’s cooling system. This option allows the water in the heater storage tank to be heated by the waste heat from the engine while driving allowing conservation of L.P. gas. All units come complete with door.
Multiple protection features – Problems are prevented with the high temperature limit switch, thermostat, and pressure and temperature relief valve. An externally sealed combustion chamber keeps the outside of the unit clean.
Pre-skin installation – Atwood water heaters can be installed and tested on the coach floor before the sidewalls are set in place. This gives manufacturers more flexibility and virtually eliminates potential problems by testing the unit before the skinning is installed.
Matching access doors – Atwood access doors are painted with tough, durable paint in a variety of popular colors which ensures a clean and attractive exterior.
Mounting options – All 6 and 10 gallon models can be mounted flush into the RV sidewall for an integrated, attractive appearance
Aluminum clad tank – Less weight and the cladding eliminates the need for an anode rod.
