Chester,
If you could leave only the 120 vac element on and turn off the 240 vac electric element and run the A/Cs that would give instant hot water and no diesel used. NOT possible unless your coach is modified to do this.
So, leave all AH switches off till you need hot water. Turn on either electric if you can do without A/C or diesel, your choice.
In the mean time, run the diesel burner through one heating cycle per month to keep fresh diesel on the nozzle. If diesel sits long enough, it will start to dry creating a need to service the burner.
