Alternative to replacing aquahot?
#1

Interesting solution to a leaking fresh water aquahot coil. Not sure if you can see it without signing up, if not let me know and I'll copy and paste it here.
Rudy, Richard, what do you guys think?

I have had a heat exchanger and associate plumbing to bypass the domestic hot water coil since I bought the coach. Works Fantastically! Way more efficient than a disintegrated "mastic" attached coil.

Be seeing you,

Forest, Jim spent 3 months with me training to fix Aqua Hot heaters.  He is very sharp guy and has an excellent idea.

I added a flat plate heat exchanger to my system for truly endless hot showers. They are compact but work like a dream.

I copied Richards idea adding a flat plate exchanger and we added a small diesel water heater for boondocking works great.
