Terrible design, best for fresh water systems

Absolutely horrible design for an RV hot water tank. The old one was clogged through the screen on the new trailer a year later and the new one was clogged immediately despite using soft water in the RV tank each time. I have never come across a hot water mixing valve with a very fine inlet braid. This valve needs a complete overhaul!

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Some cons

Broken mixing valve Atwood 90029

This is the 2nd broken valve I have received from this seller. He must have a bad batch. I'll clean my old one to see if it works. I cleaned this one last year and it worked after receiving a broken one from this sale last year. I soaked it again after installing a new one from the seller today which didn't work. Attention buyers

Pros
  • Decent work
Cons
  • There are nuances

This is a well made valve

This is a well made valve but due to its location at the water heater outlet it is prone to clogging due to limescale build up in the heater. I had to remove the old valve and flush the heater back where it is mounted to allow water to flow out of the heater drain to get proper water flow and then install the replacement valve. The key here is regular heater maintenance.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Easy to take off, easy to put on, save money

I ordered this on Friday, received it on Sunday. I opened the package and it didn't quite turn out what was on the water heater. Installed and tested after some refinement. I made sure there were no leaks in the connection. I started the water heater and it works great. The problem I had was getting hot water from the cold water column and just as warm from the hot water faucet. Now all I have to do is replace the electric heating element and the water heater will work great. This part costs…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • -

Mixing valve - water heater, parts and accessories

We bought a used motor home a few years ago and had to be very careful when turning on the hot water on every tap and shower. If you are not careful and only put your hands under the faucet with the hot side, you could easily burn yourself. I always had to remember to alert guests to a hot water issue and be sure to turn on cold water first, then hot water to mix to the right temperature before I can wash my hands, take a shower, or do the dishes. After doing a lot of research, reading a few…

Pros
  • Top marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Trade in available
