Carole H.Carole H.: I had internal/electronic problems with the original Camplux 3.18 GPM Propane Instant Hot Water Heater I bought, but the Support Staff at Camplux were exemplary in resolving the situation by replacing the unit, even though I had already passed the 30-day return policy Amazon had established.
Greater Detail: I ordered this unit from Amazon on March 8, 2023 and had it shipped to my home in Texas. However, I bought the water heater for my cabin, which is in the Kiamichi Wilderness area of Oklahoma. Thus, I was unable to install the unit until I returned to the cabin on Saturday, April 15, which was several days beyond Amazon's 30-day return policy for the heater.
I unboxed the heater for the first time and began installation the next day (Sunday, April 16.) After installing the heater with all recommended hook-ups (see picture) and pre-use leak tests, I plugged-in the unit. The LED Display did NOT come on … and it still didn't, even after I’d performed all the steps given in Amazon’s "Troubleshoot on your own" support page for the water heater. Needless to say, I was very disheartened...especially since I'd already passed the "return by" date. [Note: Before you...

Steve M.: Arrived quickly and well packaged. Installed at the cottage last week. Took a few hours because I was being careful to go step by step, but it works just fine and setup is very straightforward once installed. Instructions are very limited, but it's relatively intuitive to connect to a propane tank. But, this is a very basic package, with a small bag's worth of parts - each hookup is unique, so you have to figure out what you need.
We used pex piping, so needed to buy adaptors for that, and we needed to buy the propane hookups. None of this was a surprise and it wasn't hard, just be sure to use the provided O-rings to ensure a snug fit and no heater leak.
Solid product, hope it lasts. Would recommend for small applications. Have noticed it struggles to mix hot and cold water (it needs to be one or the other), and the instructions do recommend that you don't mix - that might affect how you use it.

KenjiFox: I got one of these 3.18gpm automatic heaters from a warehouse deal. A white one if that makes any difference. It is in Fahrenheit rather than the Celsius that would be expected from prior reviews.
Not sure of the other changes, but I can also say that the blower fan is at the top of the unit just under the flap valves. I believe the combustion blower was at the bottom on the earlier units.
I've yet to see if it has low temperature protection in this model, but I doubt it. I will be adding a thermal switch inside that starts up the blower fan whenever the internal temp drops below 40. It should run here and there drawing warm inside air through the device occasionally all winter.
I've only hooked it up to test it then put it away so far. I am not at the stage with my tiny house to install it yet, but I couldn't pass up the warehouse deal and bought it the moment I spotted it since this was the unit I was going to use anyway.
In my initial testing, the only thing I would consider a flaw is that you need quite a flow to make it start up. I would like if it started at more like 0.3GPM rather than almost 0.7. That's a lot of water for me. I use 0.5 GPM on every fixture,...
