I am not one to take the time to typically write reviews. However, this water heater unit has served us incredibly well this past season and I felt compelled to share my opinion!Having hot water at our remote camp site was always in the long term goals. I hadnโt seen mini on demand water heaters before, but when I found out about them and researched options, Camplux rose to the top. I installed the unit in minutes and had trouble free hot water - it was awesome!After using it all season with zero issues, I accidentally damaged the unit. This is what drove me to write a review. Being a product developer myself, itโs obvious when a company believes in their products and stands behind them. Customer service promptly helped replace the broken component (that was my fault) and got me up and running again. Fantastic service.

We were having work done in our bathroom and decided to go with an outdoor shower ... for while the work was being performed and into the future.Because we are on well water, our water pressure is variable so I bought the unit that included a pump. We tried using the unit without the pump and it worked but the temperature varied to a fault and the water pressure was low.Finally I hooked up the pump and it now works great. I was surprised just how much of a difference the pump made. It has minimal and easily manageable variance in water temps and it now has much improved pressure.We did have a problem that the pump had a leak. I contacted customer service and they soon shipped a replacement pump.Even though our bathroom is now 100% functional, my wife and I both choose to shower outdoors more frequently than indoors.

As other reviewers have noted, it can be tricky to dial in the temperature, especially for showers where you have a narrow window of comfort, and particularly if your shower is not right next to the unit where you can fiddle with the dials. To solve this I bought a thermostatic valve that outputs to the shower head. You set to the desired temperature, connect hot water input from the heater, and cold water input from a tee off the cold water input before the heater. Much cheaper and simpler than putting in a traditional shower valve, and it holds a steady temperature.

This is the first time I have ever written a review of a product. I was compelled to write this after my experience with Camplux. First off the water heater is amazing! I still do not understand how this unit can heat water that fast and that hot (140 degrees). Even the shower head is awesome. The volume of water is just right.The water pressure is not so hard that your wasting water (for those who may be using it off grid like me) nor is it too low. It is surprisingly light weight and easy to hang and store away.I was actually prompted to write this review after my experience with Camplux's customer support team. On my first off grid trip with the water heater I forgot to disconnect it from my water tanks and to drain the unit as instructed. Well, when the temperatures fell into the low 20's you can guess what happened. Yes, everything froze and as a result the shower head broke and the internal water valve cracked. I contacted customer support and they responded immediately. Without any undue hassle they are sending me replacement parts!! How amazing is that?

I bought this heater to replace a cheap quality MADE IN CHINA heater I bought from amazon that does not work, it will not heat the water at all.I have not installed it as yet because it is too late in the camping season to do so as of October 2024.However I have compared the quality construction and material finish of this CAMPLUX to the cheap Chinese brand and it is much more superior and better built over all, so should have no problems. I will update this review when I start using it.

Works great for setting up outside and connecting to the camper for nice hot showers and washing dishes. Also very pleased with their customer service. Had a problem and they took care of it immediately.

So, after a bit over a month and only used about a half dozen times, itโs pretty much expensive junk. It started out strong, getting the water hot enough for a shower on the โecoโ setting at about 99 degrees Fahrenheit. But, then each time we used it it wouldnโt get as hot as the last. Now it tops out at 90 degrees on the โfullโ setting. After a few more uses I imagine the water wonโt be any hotter than it is just right from the hose. Oh, and the shower hose blew out after the second shower and we had to replace it. So, yeah, itโs just expensive junk. I recommend you donโt waste your money on this one like I did as Iโm now outside of the return window

Very happy with this water heater. It is hard to get water hotter than 95f when it is cold outside, as during spring time. During the summer months it has been working great, water temp can easily go over 120f. So need to adjust the settings from time to time. The shower head attachment that comes with it is my only complaint, the connection between the hose and shower head is very flimsy, I will be replacing it. Otherwise this is great and well worth the money.

I connect it to my off grid house. Work good, but not alot of pressure, but that probably just my settings for winter time.

Located in Mesa Arizona. Product seems good on initial quality. I give it four and a half stars on the second day. My name is Lee. I'm a plumber buy trade. I just bought this Forest river 2010 travel trailer and the furnace and water heater failed the first week. So i disconnected the old 6 gallon tank heater that sprung a leak. I purchased this 2.62 gallon per minute unit based only on its rating and plenty of videos on you tube to check it out before purchase. it took a lot of labor the remove the old system and re pipe it for the outside use with this tankless heater. Unit functions / works well. its a little touchy to get the proper gas flow and water flow to the correct setting. Be sure to be careful the unit will produce extremely hot water140 degrees and more. the conditions i installed the unit is 70 pounds of water pressure which is very high. Due to high water pressure when you increase water flow towards high setting it would turn the unit off. You would have to reduce water flow and it would turn back on. If you had lower water pressure this would most likely not happen. The original travel trailer propane system was used to supply propane. I had to buy a 3/8" flare hose to connect to the trailer propane system. A separate bottle would have worked just fine. I wanted it to be a part of the original system of the trailer. Shower head was very good I replaced the shower head in my shower with it. To the plumbing aspect. I have pex 1/2" piping and cut out all the piping and valves for the old heater. I piped both hot and cold water with a hose bib / silcock which has mounting a flange and mounted them through the wall of my trailer. I purchased standard washer and dryer flex hoses for water connections and the 3/8" flare hose so it was a permanent installation but easy to disconnect and remove for travel or replacement. Unit mounted easy. I did have to install wood under the unit to make wall stronger. My travel trailer wall was just a thin piece of metal. One factor of note is that if you are trying to use two fixtures like the bathroom and kitchen sink at one time the unit cant really keep up with the higher demand for water. So temperature and water flow are reduced, but that's no big deal. In the end I like the unit... In Mesa Arizona we don't see freezing much so when its in the 30's cold and windy unit functions without issues. A noteworthy fact, there is no pilot flame its electronic ignition. I like 120 degree water. Unit takes 13 seconds to produce hot water at my kitchen sink in very cold conditions (30's - 40's). My sink is about 15-16' away. Its only 4 or 5 seconds for my bathroom which shares the wall the unit is installed on. one thing that that made me second guess the unit was the digital display. After I put the batteries in the display did not come on. I thought it was broken. The display will not be on until the heater is active and producing hot water. All in All the unit produces very, very hot water. Its propane efficient, again no pilot flame its electronic ignition. Unit is very quiet during combustion in comparison to other tankless heaters.Tankless heaters are the future of water heating. So as a comparison of the 6 gallon original heater and the Camplux heater, it's a no brainer. The original heater had a pilot and ran all day long to maintain the 6 gallons of water. The 6 gallons of water lasted 4 to 5 minutes when taking a shower. that's horrible and way to short. the original unit was really heavy, this unit is half the weight and much easier to work on. the old heater was a pain to work on being on the inside of the trailer. So, if your old system has failed just say good buy to it and put a modern tankless replacement for it and never run out of hot water. I got the unit and the needed materials for around 400.00 dollars. I did the labor so that's not factored in. the replacement for the 6 gallon heater was north of 600.00 buy itself.UPDATE:After using the heater for a few days, it had issues in my shower. when tempering the hot water with cold water in the shower somehow the unit turns off and stops producing hot water, but what i have realized is that the shower head that came with the unit greatly reduces water flow. so, I took of the shower head that came with the unit and replaced it with the one that was in my shower previous to my purchase of the tankless heater. this head dose not force the water through lots of small holes, so it doesn't affect the flow rate at the unit, thus it works properly. The unit is working well. You need to change the gas flow and water mixture when the outside temp changes but that's no big deal.Best of luck to you.Lee.
