So your using a fired pressure washer instead of a hot water heater?

Hot water heater temperature would significantly lower towards 108F

Most RV WH's are factory set at 140. Not changeable.

Glad to see that your shower is no longer going to have to be just endured!
Congratulations!
Now: please pass the soap...

Luckily ours is adjustable but your correct the typical 6 gal and up comes preset

Atwoods are easily retrofitted to an adjustable thermostat

Kids are susceptible to getting burned or scalded since most are not used to that high of temperature from the faucet

On our previous Landmark we installed a mixing valve on the discharge

A field fix is to simply crack the cold bypass
