Review on Leisure Products LR425 Water Heater by Nathan Akers

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great, buy now and never worry about a pilot light again.

Can't give 5 stars yet as I don't know how long it will last. I recently bought a 2000 Niagara at a great price and have had so many problems with the check engine light. This solves that problem, I don't just have to plug the cord into my camper and in 45-55 minutes I have plenty of hot water for a shower. When I know I want to take a shower after leaving the house I just leave it on all day and the temp sensor keeps it normal so I can have a good shower when I get home. I know 45 minutes seems like a long time, but I have two things to say about it. First, most campgrounds have at least running water and electricity, so why pay for propane? Second, unless you have a newer heater, most of which are double-sided anyway, you'll have to spend a lot of time turning on the warning light, or leave it on for the entire ride hoping it won't go out. Installation was very easy, any codependent adult can install this as long as they have a large drain socket. Took me 30 minutes, most of which was spent clearing the deposits in the tank from being out of service for so long.

Pros
