We've had 2 RVs with the Aquago and 2 with Suburban water heaters. Hands down, we prefer the Aquago. Low energy use on demand and much easier to winterize and return to service. Also, we turn it on only when we are using it.
I am going to agree with you on all of this. Originally I would leave it in Eco and turn the system on with a faucet, but recently switched to keeping the system off until I need it since it activates so quickly and heats the water in no time.
I feel like that has to count for something! Lol we are excited for the travel trailer too and where we will be taking it. Hope to make it happen by the beginning of next year. I will give Belle that hug for you!
I just love how Sabrina sat there through that intro with a big smile on her face. Waiting for you to give that punchline of "she was right and you were wrong!" I saw the title of your video and thought I better be saying a prayer for Kenny! LOL I feel for you buddy. However. Congratulations Sabrina! Lol being here in Arizona for the summer we actually turned off all of our hot water heaters. We have hydronic heating the Oasis system. Runs on both diesel and or electric one or two heaters. Normally we just use one electric heater, but like I said the summer we didn't need any. Some mornings when we do wake up the water is a little bit cooler so we will turn on the diesel and it is instantly hot within 2 minutes. If we had the canyon Star we would be putting in the system you're talking about. Great video guys!
Hey Dave, this summer has been too much for me! Sabrina is usually right, someday I will learn that, but I doubt anytime soon lol. I have heard good things about the hydronic systems and I like the idea of them working from the fuel tank as well. Hopefully we catch up with you guys this winter! We are currently on our way to the Overland Expo in Colorado, then will be slowly making our way to the Hershey show.
My thing is it waste water while its heating it up. 60 seconds is probably a gallon or two down the drain. We have a 10 gallon rv tank and only turn it on(we only use electric at campgrounds) when we know we'll need hot water and it stays hot for hours We have an on demand water heater at home and don't really care for it because a). It was very expensive and, b). When our power at home goes out you no longer have hot water. Tip: Keep a bucket in the shower and while you're running the water to get it hot, catch the water in the bucket and use it to fill and flush the toilet. No wasted water or space in your grey tank. You can also use it in your sink to wash your hands. Safe travels.
We are having a very different experience with our AquaGo, we liked it so much that we removed our tank heater in the house and replaced it with a tankless water heater. It's been great in our home too. If we turn our AquaGo on comfort mode, no water is wasted while getting hot. We found it only needs water flowing when on the eco setting.
Hey Matt, the AquaGo primarily only works on propane to heat the water. The antifreeze kit that we have installed works on 12volt, but it is only meant to stop the AquaGo from freezing, not to heat the water for a shower. We originally thought we would miss being able to heat the water from 120v like our old water heater, but the AquaGo has been so efficient we haven't missed it all! It could be though because we barely used our old water heater on electric, it was very power hungry and worked very slowly to heat the water, so we mostly used it on propane as well. Sorry for the long post, I'm tired and rambling 😆

It's Ok You Were 90 Percent Right! That's Exciting About Your Travel Trailer!! Give Belle A Hug For Me!!!

Hey Kenny...does the aqua-go run on both electric and propane?
