Remote, Direct spark ignition eliminates the need to light external pilot light.
Energy efficient U-tube combustion chamber prevents early mixing of cold water, ensuring the pleasure of a
hot water shower lasts longer.
Special aluminium alloys which conduct heat quicker and reduce vehicle weight, with hot water unit weighing
less than 9kg.
Enriched aluminium clad tank, which eliminates the necessity of an anode rod (no anode rod required).
Designed specifically to withstand the rigours of RV road travel. Camec offers a unique 2-year warranty on
the Atwood hot water service.
The Atwood is a storage hot water unit. Ambient temperature does require time to heat. Approximately 50 to
70 minutes depending on temperature of water and the out side temperature
The unit will cycle its self on and off when water is reaching temperature and for as long as the unit is
switched on and has a gas supply.
Always drain the water when the unit is shut down or when in danger of freezing. If allowed to freeze, the
tank or pipes may burst. In such cases, the warranty will be void. Never place a frozen unit in operation.
Rinse tank at regular intervals (2 to 3 times per year). This increases the life of the tank and gives you full
22.7 litres of hot water.
Weeping or dripping of the pressure temperature relief valve while the water heater is running DOES NOT
mean it is defective. This is normal expansion of water as it is heated in the closed water system.
The Atwood water heater tank is designed with an internal air gap at the top of the tank to reduce the
possibility of weeping and dripping. In time the expanding water will absorb this air. To replace the air read
the instruction and follow steps carefully.
The interior of the flue tube and the interior of the burner tube should be cleaned at least once a year and
more frequently if spiders and other nest-building insects are a problem in your area. Only a qualified
technician should perform these operations.
Be sure the water heater ignition systems are “OFF” during any type of refuelling and while vehicle is in
motion or being towed. Do not drive whilst Atwood is in operation.
Water from the water heater should not be used for drinking purposes.
Cold and especially heated portable water, which has been stored for long periods of time, generally no
longer has the quality required for human consumption, especially due to the increase in bacteria count.
Intermittent problems can occur. This may be caused by poor or corroded wire connections. Carefully pull out
spade connected wires and check for dirt or corrosion. Then reconnect them and ensure the connections are
tight and free from corrosion.
