The engine heat exchange system allows a motor home to heat the water while traveling. This convenient option allows you to arrive at your destination with hot water. Operating a pilot or electronic water heater on gas while in transit is a dangerous practice.

This system consists of a U-shaped aluminum tube that is attached to the outside of the tank with welds. SAE hoses are attached to both ends of this tube and are spliced into the engine coolant system.

When the engine is running, the hot coolant flows past the tank through this tube and by means of heat transfer through the welds, heating the water. The design of this system will not allow the water to reach a boiling point. It will typically heat the water to about 130° F. in about 2-3 hours of driving.

Aftermarket Heating Elements

WARNING

EXPLOSION / BURN INJURY

•Aftermarket heating elements can lack critical safety controls.

•Use of these devices can lead to an out of control heating of water tank and a catastrophic wet side explosion.

YOU DO NOT NEED AN AFTERMARKET HEATING ELEMENT ON AN ATWOOD WATER HEATER. THE USE OF AFTERMARKET HEATING ELEMENT DEVICES MAY ALSO RESULT IN DAMAGE TO COMPONENTS OR WATER HEATER. Atwood’s written warranty states

- “failure or damage resulting from any alteration to our water heater is the owner’s responsibility”. ANY

ALTERATION, LIKE THE ADDITION OF AN AFTERMARKET HEATING ELEMENT DEVICE, WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

•Temperatures produced by these heating elements can exceed the 190˚F. limit of the ECO on pilot model gas control valves. This gas control valve contains a one-shot ECO. When this ECO blows, the control is

completely non-functional and must be replaced.

THIS WILL BE A NON-WARRANTABLE SITUATION.

•When Aftermarket heating elements are inserted into the drain plug, customers are more prone not to flush their tanks. Not flushing the tank accelerates tank corrosion on both our pilot and electronic ignition water heaters creating a situation

where the tank may have to be replaced. THIS WILL

BE A NON-WARRANTABLE SITUATION.
