Yeah I’m really excited. We’re getting ready to head out on an extended trip next week to Utah, Yellowstone, and Glacier, with a good mix of rv parks and boondocking so it’ll be a great test.
Unfortunately we brought it directly home from Truma, so other than running the sinks to verify it works I don’t have much to report yet.
I’m thinking I might tweak the wiring a little. It’s a propane unit with 12v for the control board and pumps. We talked about it and I had them get the 12v from the existing gas water heater power switch, but it does not need to be switched since the Truma selector switch has an off position. One of my wife’s idiosyncrasies is switches that don’t do anything, so I’m thinking as long as I need to remove the old electric water heater switch, I’ll remove the gas one too and wire it directly to the new 12v fuse panel I put in the front bay. The installers agreed this should be fine. Then I need to figure out how to rework my control center, I don’t use the factory tank sensors anymore, and now I’ll have two blanks in it so I’m toying with pulling the factory switches out Andy making a new board to mount them to.
