Whale Seaward 6 Gallon Hot Water Heater w/Rear Heat Exchanger - White Epoxy - 120V - 1500W

The Whale Seaward 6 Gallon Hot Water Heater with Rear Heat Exchanger is designed for boaters seeking reliable hot water solutions during extended cruising or liveaboard situations. This unit is particularly beneficial for those who may not have consistent shore power, ensuring a comfortable experience while out on the water.

Operating on 120V AC power and drawing 1500W, this hot water heater features a rear heat exchanger that utilizes engine coolant to preheat incoming water, significantly reducing electrical demand. The white epoxy finish provides resistance against marine corrosion and salt spray, making it a durable choice for marine environments.

Serious cruisers and full-time boaters will find the rear heat exchanger configuration particularly advantageous, as it captures waste engine heat for efficient water warming during idle or motoring operations. Installation requires proper plumbing connections and integration with the engine's coolant loop, making it essential for users to have some plumbing knowledge.
