Suburban Advantage SW10D: 10-Gallon RV Water Heater with Porcelain-Lined Tank and DSI

Meet the Suburban Advantage SW10D, a 10-gallon RV water heater designed to deliver dependable hot water on the go. The porcelain-lined steel tank mirrors a home water heater's durability, built to resist the wear of travel while keeping a clean, corrosion-resistant interior. The Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) provides reliable ignition without a standing pilot, simplifying operation when you need hot water after a chilly morning or a long drive.
