How is the health of your battery and was it charged? The LP/CO detector will trigger if the 12V voltage drops below a certain point. This should only be an issue if you're boondocking or the converter is dead.]]> Wed, 19 Jun 2019 10:17:52 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12963&PID=125044#125044 Water heater...gain : The water heater works independently... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12963&PID=125038#125038 Author: offgrid

The water heater works independently on both propane (with 12Vdc for control), and 120Vac. To run on 120Vac electric you need to be connected to a pedestal or other AC source, have the outside on/off switch turned ON, and have the dedicated circuit breaker in the panel (the one labelled water heater) turned ON. 

Remember to turn either the circuit breaker and/or the outside switch to OFF when there is no water in the tank or you will burn out the heating element.

hello all,
I am finally taking my 2011 173T on its maiden voyage. Everything was going fine until I turned on the hot water heater. After about 5 minutes the lp alarm starts wailing. I had to pull the fuse to stop it. I also turned off the inside switch that that was not working anyway with the fuse pulled. Does the heater work on electric if I only have the outside switch turned on? Thanks for your input.

Dan
