Furrion is first rate gear.
This works really well and makes RV showering a pleasure. BUT: I have had to buy this twice and it is not cheap, because the first one, less than a year old, still had water trapped inside that froze in winter and burst some copper parts inside the unit. This sort of damage is not covered by the warranty. So be warned that you need to not only drain, but blow out the entire system seasonally or as appropriate.I want to say that the Furrion gear I've purchased for my RV is first rate.

Very happy with the water heater
We purchased this as a replacement as the one we had did not make it through the winter. I thought I had blown all of the water out to only find out I was not correct and the internal piping had burst. Next year I will go ahead an add RV antifreeze which was listed as optional to do. We have always enjoyed the on demand hot water and have had no problems other then not winterizing it with antifreeze. Being it was a replacement it was a quick removal and installation of the new hot water heater. It has worked like champ. It is one of our most favorite features of our 5th wheel, not having to worry about running out of hot water while taking a shower. Set the temperature and you can enjoy a steady, constant flow of hot water. I would never want a different hot water heater again as all of our previous ones have been the six gallon standard where you either had to go as fast as you could or stop the flow between soaping up and rinsing off. No fun or relaxing.

Worth every penny! Detailed review!
Got this unit to replace current 6 gallon suburban water heater.Typical story: full timer, got tired of 5 minute hot water limits.I did months of research, tough decision between Girard and furrion. Furrion won this tie with its more modernized panel and mechanics.Now one month in, here's my review:Install was straightforward, aware I needed to resize the length and depth of my water lines, I was already equipped with a pex cutter and crimper, which will be required if like my palomino, was hard lined to the tank of the old heater. Be sure to drain the low points and shutoff water supply for less water cleanup. mine also required some pex to 1/2" npt fittings to adapt to the furrion unit.My old unit had a 3 wire 12v power source, assuming one was a signal for the dsi fault indicator, I probed for my switched power and ground from the old unit. Power was now supplied and I decided a short run of speaker pair wire would be sufficient to extend the minimally supplied signal wire for the remote unit to the outside panel of the utility cabinet/pantry.I then proceeded to power the unit on with water supplied, and set it to max temp(124°) and turned on the kitchen faucet.Within 10 seconds I had warm water, by 20 it was hot enough to impress me. I decided to settle on 122° as the incoming water temperature is close to 40°, and the first start of the morning for a shower does take about 45-60 seconds to stabilize. Not to be mistaken, the water is hot at 20 seconds but the addition of the cold valve water supply drops the water temp significantly at first, then rises.I have tested the system by showering a typical length as I would in a house with a residential heater. I have also ran it on direct hot for the time it takes to fill a 36 gallon holding tank with just hot water.The system maintained the set temperature within 1 minute of activation throughout the duration if both tests.It has the typical: if you pause flow, then resume you'll get a second of colder water than you expect. But otherwise I have no complaints so far.Propane use seems significantly lower despite the extended testing versus the 6 gallon tank unit.My unit was tested at 60psi of head pressure, easily at 2.5gpm flow, through a kdp whole house filter at 1 micron, with the flow valve left on factory setting(MAX)My door came white, I used krylon quick dry enamel using multiple light coats for the door and frame which were painted apart.Butyl tape, dicor sealant, some pex line fittings crimpers and pex adapters are required for install, along with a screwdriver, wire crimpers and butt connectors.

Fits perfectly to replace my Gerard tankless water heater
I need to replace my Gerard tankless water heater as it wasn’t holding a constant temp. This Furrion fit perfectly into the same location, the fittings fit easily and was a dream to hook up. I watched a couple of YouTube videos for both installing the Furrion and the Gerard, which really was helpful. The Furrion works great, heats water quickly, holds the temp, and I couldn’t be happier.

Roll the dice
I received my water heater, ready to install, ready to enjoy. Hooked the gas, water, and electric with ease and went to turn it on and nothing happened, no lights, no display on the remote, no hot water.Got on the phone with Lippert (who owns Furrion) and troubleshot it down to a "bad motherboard." I said, "Great, when can you get me a new one?" Lippert needed information and so I sent them all that they needed. After two days of not hearing back, I contacted Lippert again and they said: "You didn't purchase it directly through us, make a warranty claim with United RV." I then Contacted United RV and they told me to make a warranty claim with Lippert....Now you see the game as I do.Luckily, Lippert sells motherboards on their website. Its been two weeks without hot water and the motherboard should arrive today.1. Will someone take your money? Yes.2. Will you receive something in the mail? Yes3. Will it work? Maybe4. Will the company stand behind it? Probably not5. Will it last? Who knows.My recommendation is that you spend the couple of dollars more to purchase directly from Lippert. That does not mean you're going to get a product that works, or that warranty replacement will be cheap, fast and effective, nor does it mean that you're buying a quality device. But you will get something, and they seem like they will honor the warranty. Maybe.
