Operating Instructions For Trailers With Electric Element
Electric water heaters are designed to operate with a minimum amount of service problems;
however, proper operation and care is essential.
By far the most common trouble with electric water heaters results from energizing the water heater
before it is filled with water. Even brief operation of the electric element without water in the tank
will burn-out the electric heating element.
To energize the electric heating element, turn the switch to “on”. The switch is located behind the
water heater door in the lower left corner of the control housing. The water temperature will be
regulated by the thermostat. (See section entitled “Thermostat And Manual Reset”)
1. Turn switch to “OFF” position.
2. Turn off electrical power to the appliance.
3. Turn off gas supply.
4. If trailer is to be stored or heater is going to be turned off while subject to freezing
temperature, drain water heater. (See “Draining and Storage Instructions”)
ANODE PROTECTION
The tankin this water heater is protected by a magnesium or aluminum anode (Fig. 5-2) to prolong
the life of the tank. Under normal use, the anode rod will deteriorate and because of this, we
recommend it be replaced yearly.
NOTE: Water with high levels of iron and/or sulfate will
increase the rate of deterioration; therefore, more
frequent replacement may be required.
Operating the water heater without proper anode protection
will decrease tanklife and will void your warranty on the
tank.
NOTE: Tankis drained by removing anode rod (See
“Drain and Storage” instructions).
To extend anode life, drain water from tankwhenever park
trailer is not being used. Avoid any extended time of non use
with water in tank.
Also, refer to section on winterizing.
I
WARNING! Do not replace the anode rod with any non-Suburban accessory part,
such as “add-on” electric heating element. Items such as these are not approved to be
installed in Suburban products. They could create an unsafe condition and will also
void all warranties.
