Just picked up our new Escape 204S and added an on demand water heater ($200.) will make it nice for taking not only longer showers but will provide enough hot water for everyone to take their showers in a row without waiting for water to heat up. ps Just love the new floorplan , 15ft. awing and 13,500 ac amd 6.3 two door frige.

L 10 1/4 in , w 5 3/8 in weight 6 pounds….. there is also a smaller one RTE 3 at 110 volts.which would be 1.5 GPM any quistions you have I will be glad to answer and help. ps using electric saves you as while at a elect hook up site.

I installed a hot stick in my water heater the day I purchased it in place of the annard rod.  I hard wired it in and have never used the propane for the water heat.  Just interested in your install.  I live in Florida, in my 14RB full time.  Bought it new in Feb. last year.  Real cheap living, and fine for just me.  I converted the couch into a fold out bed so I could leave my table up all the time.  I have a (how to) on the couch conversion in the MOD section.  Cool
