Product Overview
The Adventure is Always Better…
You shouldn’t have to sacrifice the comforts of home because you’re on the
road- especially hot water. Keep your water heater out of sight and out of
mind — take advantage of Suburban’s over 30 years of expertise and reliability
with longer lasting residential style tank water heaters.
With Suburban’s Steel Tank water heaters, you can enjoy longer showers and do
the dishes without worrying about running out of hot water. Available in five
different capacities, you can choose the tank that best fits your RV and your
lifestyle. The porcelain tank and the replaceable anode rod work in
combination to prevent corrosion, lengthening the life of your water heater.
… When it Feels Like Home!
- Durable porcelain lined steel tank is built just like longer lasting residential tank water heaters
- Sacrificial, replaceable anode rod protects against tank corrosion and doubles as a drain
- Optional electric element allows you to take advantage of campsite or generator power to heat water
- Suburban exclusive flue tube slows combustion process to transfer more heat to water in tank
- Repositionable module board provides installation flexibility
- Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) that directly lights the main burner, avoiding the need for a pilot
- 2 year limited warranty with the tank itself backed by a 3 year tank limited warranty
