This video is less refined as I just show how the heater came together as well as some water flow tests. From the first PVC version all the way to installation in my camper van, I tried to pick out the important moments from the footage.

This "water warmer" makes a lot of sense. Another gem from the mind of Pavel. Thanks for sharing you process.
I absolutely love your videos! I'd love more lightweight cabinet builds if you ever feel like it. You don't really see much like it on UA-cam
First. Love your videos Pavel!
Informative video and work. Normally, water heaters have a failsafe temperature and pressure relief valve. I am wondering what would happen if you ever forgot to turn off the power and the heater failed, locking in the heat mode.
Not to sound like a jerk but brazing is similar to soldering but the difference is the material used to bind the pieces together... soldering uses, in historical context, a lead based bonding material now there is alternate ones without lead... but still very soft compared to the material used for brazing which is harder and usually done much hotter and done for bonding 2 different materials like stainless and copper or brass together...
Just a thought; purchase a small size propane tank to connect your fittings with welds; for heating the tank an induction cooktop ? I'm certain that you can make adjustments if needed?
Nice try. You've got a great shop. I tinker all day with those cheap Amazon gadgets. Hopefully you're making money with your exceptional skills. My crap turns out as yard art. LOL 😅
what i want to see is you build the most heat insulating water tank ever? basically need it for my boat an idea from you
