    Nice Video...!!! Hey couple questions.
    1) How's the water heater coming along? Still functioning?
    2) What size of a water reservoir do you have? I just inherited one, and I'm not sure I need such a big one that I have, for only a single person. You have capacity for two people, yes?
    3) I like how you used the silver lines coming off the water heater. All those valves and junctions earlier, attached near fitting of water tank, looked like a mess, and extra strain on the water heater outlets. You can run valves off the floor. A little excess water in lines is no biggie.
    4) So...what size of keyhole size is that? I guess the water heater destructions will have the size.
    16:42 so...a couple more things.
    5) The exterior plug, I guess if someone had solar and stuff, they could just cut the cord, and run it into their interior electrical lines.
    6) Also, I wonder if using zip ties to hold the flex lines from drooping over the tank, and heading to the floor would put less stress on the top water heater fittings.
    Again, great video. I'm going to do the same thing, and follow this video to the T. Thank You...!!!
    Great job!! I have a 1987, and it has all the old school BPA+ lines, and going to upgrade to PEX. Also, they have new PEX fittings called 'PEXLock Clamps' and I guess they're a game changer. You don't need that compression pliers, just normal pliers, AND they can be released, and refastened.

    That video was awesome. You are a talented person. I am currently installing a hybrid electric heating element in my camper. You gave me ideas and inspiration.

    Can I convert my propane water heater to do both Electric and propane?

    i noticed you didn't install that pressure relief valve on yours, and how is it working so far the way you hooked everything up?
    thinking of getting one as the propane heater i got now is leaking and cost $500 to replace, and with the cost of this one i can replace it every two years.

      So far it has been great for what we use it for. Hot water to wash dishes, and enough hot water to rinse off. You are not going to take long showers with it but certainly plenty to rinse off. Hope this helps

      It does great for sink use and a quick rinse off. More of a short use set up. Being is that the tank is so small there is not a lot of volume. It does recover very quickly but it’s not instant. Thanks for checking out the channel!
