Hello All
I am currently converting my Mercedes Vario and want to install a LPG tankless water system that only turns on when the water is drawn.
I am finding it difficult to find anything as it hasnt seemed to hid the european market yet.
(I wanted a system that has a flue guard and door that comes out the side of the truck)
maybe someone can help? or any Suggestions.

This is the type of tank I am looking for: (one were the flue come out the side of the truck)

Amazon product ASIN B00F3JREO8 (USA)
I found more but all USA product or production!

If not will go for The Propex Malaga 5 Water Storage Heater Would anyone know how efficient it is.

So most tankless water heaters that I found for RVs/trailers cost about $1k, the Truma Comfort costs about $1.3k so I’m fine with that given the benefits. I had my dealer install it so the total cost for the unit and the labor install was about $1.7k. The dealer (LazyDays in Tampa, Florida) had to undergo a two week training for their technicians in order to install the unit, but they were happy to do so and commented that they also thought this unit would be more “capable” than other instant hot water heaters.

Although it flues from the top it will be easy enough to fit a double flue with a bend as per condensing boilers.

This is for a static caravan and not sure if it works and how to do it? Should be fine.
even if I get a 90 degree flue though and it goes out the side of the truck are there covers for this? I was just hopping someone would have been in the same position as me. Because I am clueless. DP_JAY I was looking in to this and think its the cheaper option But is it possible?

You need search for Narrowboat gas water heaters...
I remember a friend asking me to search the internet for a spare part and it seems these are the type you may be looking for.. Also used in Static caravans the adverts say,, :)
