Best of luck but most possibilities need to be vented in at least some way. Sound as if you are after an internal fitting??

Hi TD - we have a Truma brand fitted on the shelf under the kitchen sink. 14 ltrs, Stainless Steel unit, insulated, automatic. We opted for gas only. They also make electric and gas/electric. Model is B14.
They are a German company - founded in 1949.
Widely available from major RV outlets in Aust. The Australian agent is Dometic in
Melbourne (03 9545 5655)
They require 2 vents to the outside - one for the gas flue and a second - perhaps to allow air to circulate. There are also two drain pipes - one on the cold
water inlet exits through the floor, plus a Safety pressure relief on the hot
water outlet.
Size - aprox 350x350 x 320; external vents 130x240.
They also make a smaller 10 Ltr model B10.

Gooday,
Amother vote for Truma, S/Steel
tank, no anode to worry about hot enough to shower in about 10 minutes on either Gas or 240v, you can run them both together if you wiah to get it hot quicker.
Like everything for caravans they are not cheap but good gear.
Cheers Boroma604.

Try to get 240v and gas. Have friends with gas only and it uses lots of gas. Have other friends with 240v only and off road they have cold
water. I'm getting a dual unit - costs a bit more but want the flexibility.
