Thanks for keeping it simple. Most videos want to get to detailed about irrelevant topics, but you got straight to the point and were clear about the process. Keep up the good work.

You know, as a Christian I just can't help but commend you for a truly comprehensive and non confusing how to video - thanks for helping me and many more.

You sir earned a subscribed and a like, wife and I showered with cold water for 2 days before I found your video! Thank you so much 😂

[ChenzosWorld]

Thanks so much. I’ve watched a ton of videos and no one has filmed this type of water heater. For hours I’ve been searching for a pilot switch or dial like a fool! You’re a lifesaver

Don't pull in to a gas station to get gas with any propane appliance going, that includes hot water heater. Great concise video. Thank you..

[ljdouglas]

No one ever talks about that the valve on the propane tanks are double seating valves. It needs to be all the way open or all the way closed make sure propane doesn't leak out around the valve stem. So make sure that you run the valve all the way open when you are using gas, and all the way closed when you are turning it off.

This is great! However my trailer doesn't have a hot water monitor like yours does, so I'm not sure what to do with that step. My trailer is rare so it's been really difficult to find any info online and the owner's manual is sorely lacking in practical information.
