## Description

The best water heaters on the road today, Suburban's line of water heaters includes high recovery gas, gas-electric and motor aid models with sizes and features to match the requirements of almost any RV. Heated water attacks all metals, but not porcelain. That's why Suburban uses a porcelain-lined, steel water heater tank with an anode rod to absorb the electrolytical action - just like your water heater at home. In fact, when a Suburban porcelain-lined tank is properly maintained, it saves the owners the cost of premature replacement. In addition, every Suburban tank is pressure tested twice during the manufacturing process to ensure its integrity. Fast recovery means more hot water and fewer cool water cycles. 12 gallon Suburban gas water heaters feature 12,000 BTUH input and a recovery rate of 10.1 gallons per hour - that's the fastest in the industry. The insulation is available for this product. Also light indicator is available for this product
