Don't get me started on the Girard hot water heater! After 5 months of ownership the only way I can get the thing to kick on is to first turn on the hot water in the kitchen sink then the hot water in the bathroom sink or shower! It will not come on unless I use this method! I've been doing quite a bit of boondocking on this trip and the inefficiency of this units waste a lot of water. I collect the cold water in gallon jugs and it takes 1/2 to 3/4 gal before the water heater starts to work.
In the last campground I stayed in ( Morefield CG Mesa Verde NP Colorado) the water pressure was so low that the only way I could get hot water was to run the water pump at the same time I was hooked to the CG water.
In theory the tankless system should be perfect for rv'ing, but the reality is far different. I believe the Girard units are inferior products. I've read good things about the Truma tankless systems. If I continue to struggle with mine I may consider switching.
