CAMPLUX 1.32 GPM Portable Water Heater, 5L Tankless Water Heater Propane Outdoor, AY132B, Black

Great, functional product perfect for camping or off grid cabins, etc. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN TIGHTENING THE FITTING FOR HOT WATER OUT. You need to be extremely careful and delicate or you can break the unit. It’s meant for camping and garden hoses. If you are doing a permanent installation with something like pex and brass fittings, be very careful and gentle. MAKE SURE AND DRAIN THE UNIT DURING FREEZING TEMPS. This is super easy and takes five seconds. I’ve lost 3 of these to freeze damage. For any kind of permanent installation, YOU NEED A PRESSURE RELEASE VALVE IN THE HOT WATER LINE OUT JUST A FEW INCHES OUTSIDE OF THE UNIT. This will keep your pipe from exploding in the event that the heat exchanger gets clogged from degree in the water supply and hot water pressure builds up inside the unit. If you have a shower that automatically mixes hot and cold water (one handle) it’s possible that you may only get warm water if your water source is very cold. The best kind of faucets (sink and shower) for this water heater is the kind that has a separate handle for hot and cold. This allows you to get only hot water. Some faucets that have only one handle will mix hot and cold water even when the handle is turned all the way to hot. This is only a concern when temps are below 40 degrees.

This Company is top notch in my opinion, I have purchased several products from them and they never disappoint. This water heater is OUTSTANDING. I have also purchased there two burner propane cook top, it works like a charm. You cannot go wrong with these products and most definitely this Company. I will also add, there Customer Support, is absolutely the BEST! Thank you Camplux!!

I bought this to attach to a standalone outdoor shower for my yard. The instructions weren't as clear as I would have liked. Not that it's super complicated, but there were multiple sets of instructions and I felt it wasn't clearly indicated which one applied. Also there wasn't much specifically about how to connect to something other than the included spray handle. I feel that should be added as outdoor shower kits are becoming increasingly popular. However, I was able to figure it out. Since the thing is automatically triggered by the spray nozzle, I have a bit of an issue with the turning on sequence as it starts to tick as soon as I turn the water on the input. Instructions say it's not supposed to until the shower nozzle is triggered. So, I have to change the sequence order to make sure the flame lights up properly. Instead of input on, gas, output. I have to turn the gas on first, then input. But anyway, once set up, there was a learning curve for me to get the appropriate settings but now that I know what levels to turn the gas and water pressure, I have had some very hot showers! Last night I showered outside and had a great steamy shower. It was very easy to mount using the bracket already mounted on the back and a hook. The only issue - I don't think it's avoidable with these types of heaters - is that my water pressure coming out of the shower is now lower. The unit I use actually is powerful directly plugged into a hose. But even with the highest setting on water pressure, it's now about 1/2 as powerful. It's adequate though. Overall, I am very happy with it and I hope it'll last.

We used this product for taking showers outdoors during a complete gut (including the floor joists) and rebuild of our only bathroom. Overall I would highly recommend this product but there are some drawbacks. At times, while showering, the flame would shut off and the water would get cold pretty quickly. It is an annoyance more than a reason to not purchase. With the push of a button you just turn the flow off at the handle and turn it back on to re-ignite the flame and wait a few seconds for the water to get hot again. It would intermittently go off like this. Not really certain what would make the flame cut out like this but it would always re ignite quickly. The other annoyance is you have to protect the unit from getting wet. It is not rain proof. It is an outdoor shower system, yet not rain proof. We used a thick plastic bag to cover it up after every shower. Like I said, these things are just annoyances. Other than that, it has an easily adjustable flame and the water heats almost instantly. The water temp can get as hot as you want by either adjusting the rate of water flow with the handle or by using the water control knob on the unit itself to restrict flow or by adjusting the gas flame up higher with the adjustment knob on the unit. Slow the water flow and the water gets hotter. We live out in the country away from anywhere like a gym to shower at so it was a life saver during the rebuild. It is very easy to assemble and get up and running. Just connect the gas and cold water supplies and the supplied shower hose and off you go. A very simple product to use. All you need is a hose with cold water supply and a tank of propane, everything else is included. We purchased a shower tent along with a teak shower mat to place on the ground in the tent. No complaints, just a couple minor annoyances.

Easy installation and quick heat, good flow.
